Visualizing 3D Nonlinear Meshes (Michelin)

[mikeheck]

Michelin Finite Element Analysis (FEA) post-processing tools have been developed using the Open Inventor® by VSG library. Open Inventor allows great flexibility in the visual representation, for example: clipping along any 3D plane, flexible slicing, wireframe display, iso-lines, iso-surfaces, transparency and stereoscopic views. In order to handle the increasing size of data volumes (e.g. full 3D computations with all surrounding objects), we need more and more high-performance tools such as VSG’s new module MeshViz XLM, which completely lives up to our in-house customers’ expectations. In particular, MeshViz XLM can directly access application data structures, avoiding time and memory wasting copying of data, and directly supports parametric nonlinear mesh cells.
