Translations:Post-Processing of FEM Results with Paraview/58/en

In the previous section we discussed the Integration filter and its application to the entire VTK object. To demonstrate integration over a slice we will in this section determine the total reinforcement requirement and its center of gravity for the central cross section of the beam. The end result is shown in the picture below. The interaction of various objects can be inspected in the Pipeline Browser. The slice filter is applied to the beam VTK object and two Calculator filters are applied to the slice filter to derive the new variables “Reinforcement_ratio_x * z” and “Reinforcement_ratio_x * y” from the base data. These variables need to be integrated to determine the center of gravity of the reinforcement. Finally, Integration filters are applied to each Calculator to integrate results over the Slice. Please refer to the previous section for a general introduction of the Integration filter and its settings.
