The generation of attractive and accurate three-dimensional views of meshes, particle orbits and calculated quantities was a challenge in creating 3D finite-element programs in our AMaze series. The standard approach to 3D graphics is to use a library like OpenGL where surfaces are approximated with the the minimum number of facets that provide a psychologically-satisfying sense [...]

A previous post described new graphics features planned for the AMaze series of programs. They will be included with the October 1 update. The motivation is the creation of animations (movies in AVI format). We are adding expanded capabilities to the initial-value solution programs and postprocessors to generate sequences of BMP plot files, either autonomously or [...] Plotting is critical to understand meshes and field solutions in three-dimensional spaces. In consequence, we have included a wide variety of options for creating plots in MetaMesh and the analysis programs PhiView, MagView, HWV, RFE3View and Aerial. For example, the following information is neede to create a 3D view of a mesh: Parameters of the point of [...] We’re making some major advances in the graphics capabilities of programs in the 3D AMaze series. We expect to release updates in the early Fall. The improvements lie in three areas: Saved views One of the major task in simulating three-dimensional electromagnets is the definition of complex drive coils. The utility MagWinder is part of the Magnum program suite. Drive circuits are represented in Magnum by dividing them into a large set of short segments (or current elements). MagWinder provides an interactive environment where users can build magnet windings [...] |
