Elements C3D20 have flipped vertices #2

Closed carlomontec closed 5 years ago

carlomontec commented 5 years ago

Hi, when I plot a mesh using Hexa quads C3D20's, I can see that the element is built with some wrong order in the node list, making them to look somehow twisted. This is the same both in VTk and VTU scripts.

Edite: Corrected type from C3D30s to C3D20's

I agree with Carlomontec, there are some quads that looks weird

Check my CCX input file: (zipped, 1.4 Mb) https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yx-LPVaS5VXCMvDJwm0JoiLkU6KrtA0M

Or directly the CCX results in .frd: (zipped, 74 Mb) https://drive.google.com/open?id=18RWaMqY4LQPwXiucFAhJvIWBRAP7N609

Some pictures:

This is with your conversor Ccx2Paraview

This is with Calmed Calmed

By the way, could be the file generated as a timed series of data? Looks like is easier to change between modes, and then the time value is usefull for putting a text showing the frecuencie.

Thank you, guys! Hope, this bug is fixed now! Please, check a new version: https://github.com/imirzov/ccx2paraview

Sergio, now converter creates separate files per each step/frequency.
