I found the answer by reading the code and learning a bit of houdini
The only thing that I have not yet found is how to export stress(es) and strains of the particles in Houdini.
Is there any hint?
Hi @alda30 ,
You can compute stress tensor and its invariants in the particles.cpp, for example, as follows:
Matrix cS = -this->vol (u center transpose(v)) transpose(dg); this->sm = (cS[1][1] + cS[2][2] + cS[3][3]) / 3.0f;
Then, you can export these variables to a text file (or whatever) in visualize.cpp, and use the data to visualize them in Matlab, Python, etc.
Note: You need to add some lines of code in the related header files, too.
Hi, I am an engineering student and I would like to use Taichi_mpm for engineering simulations. I have 2 questions: 1- Is there any possibility to get the outputs in VTK format or CSV format? I would like to visualise the output in Paraview. Alternatively, I can do it in Houdini, but, what parameters can be visualized in Houdini? Can I get stresses or velocities of particles in Houdini? If yes, maybe it is easier to go for Houdini. What do you think?
2- Can you provide a brief explanation of what are the Linear, Sand, Elastic and Von-misses Particle Attributes? Here I would like to relate each parameter to the engineering definitions to allow a correct simulation.
