Create filter to generate Abaqus input files #14

Closed imikejackson closed 9 years ago

imikejackson commented 11 years ago

Albert Cerrone or Curt Bronkhorst to help with this

Apparently the file being generated does not have all the proper triangle faces assigned to the proper grain. Curt B. sent an image that shows the issue.

New file from Yousef sent to LANL for help to analyze what is going wrong.

Added some additional header comments to the generated Abaqus file. We really need someone with experience in using Abaqus to guide this development. Until that happens the writer will remain in experimental status. There are lots of different types of elements that can be used for a surface mesh. Rigid, Shell and Membrane. They will each have their own uses. We may also need to be writing the boundary faces to help Abaqus figure out how to anchor the model.

Over use of the Laplacian Smoothing was generating bad surface triangles.

Sally Connell is working on generating new Abaqus files based on work from Matthew Priddy @ GaTech. DREAM3D will be able to generate the nodes, elements, element-sets, and top level Abaqus input file from the voxel volume structure.

The first implementation of the writer is now available in the latest Nightly/Experimental builds. Please check http://dream3d.bluequartz.net/binaries/experimental/ for the latest binaries.
