material to cellsets
The material to cellsets module is intended to receive a 3D field into its input port which has been processed through a module like plume. If the original field (pre-plume) had multiple cell sets related to geologic units or materials, the output of plume will generally have only two cell sets which comprise all hexahedron and all tetrahedron cells. The ability to control the visibility of the layer-cell sets is normally lost.
This module takes plume’s output and recreates the cell sets based on nodal data. However, since each geologic layer will likely have two cell sets each (one for all hexahedron and all tetrahedron cells), the output tends to have twice as many cell sets as the original pre-plume field.
Ports
| Direction | Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Input | Input Field | Field | The field containing the data to create cell sets with. |
| Input | Geologic Legend Input Information | Geology Legend | Geologic legend input information. |
| Output | Output Field | Field | A field containing cell sets created by input data. |
Properties
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Allow Run | Boolean | The Allow Run toggle, when deselected, will prevent the module from running. |
| Execute | Button | This button will force the module to run even if the Allow Run toggle has been turned off. This allows the user to make a number of changes before updating. |
| Data Type | Choice: Nodal Data, Cell Data | The Data Type selects either nodal or cell data to be used to create cell sets. |
| Nodal Data Component | Choice | The data from the input field that is used to set cell sets. |
| Cell Data Component | Choice | The data from the input field that is used to set cell sets. |
