CTH datasets
This tutorial shows how to visualize CTH datasets (called spcth files). CTH is a multi-material, large deformation, strong shock wave, solid mechanics code developed at Sandia National Laboratories. A more complete writeup on CTH is here: http://www.sandia.gov/CTH/. CTH Spyplot files are Eulerian, or structured mesh datasets. They can be flat mesh or adaptive mesh refinement (i.e., AMR).
- This tutorial assumes that the user is already farmiliar with ParaView. If necessary, see tutorials https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Beginning_ParaView and https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Beginning_Sources_and_Filters.
A simple CTH example
- Start ParaView.
- Open spcta_a.0.[0-3]. Turn all variables on. Apply.
- Filters/ CTH/ Extract CTH Parts. Turn off all Volume Arrays, except Material volume fraction - 1. Apply.
- In the Pipeline Browser, select Volume Data (i.e., the raw cth data again).
- Filters/ CTH/ Extract CTH Parts. Turn off all Volume Arrays, except Material volume fraction - 2. Apply.
- Paint by Pressure.
- Play forward.
