Re: [Libmesh-users] Question about Large Deformation Elasticity Example(in System of Equation Catergory)

[Paul T. B. <ptb...@gm...>]

This is really a ParaView question and not a libMesh one, but I will try to
help.

In ParaView, you need to add the filter to your pipeline to show the
displacement. It is based on using a vector variable, so you will also need
to use the calculator filter to create a vector field for your displacement
(e.g. u*iHat + v*jHat + w*kHat). Alternatively, to avoid needing the
calculator in ParaView, you can change the variable names in the example to
be "Ux" "Uy" and "Uz". Paraview will then understand "U" as the vector
variable to which you can use the "Warp by Vector" filter to get what you
want.

Here's a link to many ParaView tutorials.

Hope that helps.

Best,

Paul
