GridTool: A Tool for Structured and Unstructured Grid Generation
Structured Grid
This panel is used to project the entire or portion of a structured
surface grid onto a set of surfaces, and this process can be divided
into five steps: (1) read the surface definition and the surface grid
using the "IO" panel, (2) turn on associated surfaces, (3) make
the surface to be projected active, (4) project the surface grid onto the
surfaces, and (5) check for the validity of the new surface grid.
In order to have a successful projection,
users are required to insure that: (1) the surface grid is close
enough to the associated surfaces, and (2) the associated surfaces have
sufficient display paths. User may undo the projection or
reinterpolate a protion of the surface grid.
FAQ
How do I project a structured grid onto NURBS surfaces?
- Read the grid as point definition (plot3d, gridgen, or lawgs)
- Read the surface in
- Turn the desires surfaces on
- Make the grid active
- Activate the Structured Grid Panel
- Select the part of the grid that needs to be projected
using imin, imax, jmin, jmax
- Press the Project button
How do I write the grid out only?
turn only the grid on, and use the I/O panel to write it out
