Basic functionality and features (GeoDict Base Package) / Visualization Questions

« on: May 11, 2023, 04:41:07 PM »

During my usage I came across two questions on visualization settings in GeoDict:

• How can I show a volume field and a structure outlines in 2D view
• How can I show volume field lines (e. g. flow field stream lines) in 2D view

Do you have any ideas?

Structural Material Modeling and Analysis / Re: Building complex non-crimp fabric structures with python

« on: May 05, 2023, 03:12:49 PM »

Hello David,
I am glad to see someone new here.An overview of the possible Gad Objects and their handling can be found in our User Guide for GADGeo: https://www.geodict.com/fileadmin/UserGuide/GeoDict2023/GadGeo2023.pdf#nameddest=GadAdd
Can you have a short look and let me know if this is helpful or if you need further information?
Best Regards,
Aaron

Analysis (-Find modules) / Re: Measure the length of fibers

« on: April 18, 2023, 04:47:25 PM »

Thank you for explaining.
I think then I have a solution for you.

The first step is optional: Use "Model" -> "GadGeo" -> "Algorithms" -> "Cut Fibers to Domain". This cuts the infinite fibers to the domain and makes sure, that only fibers with an start or endpoint are inside of the structure.
As I said this is optional, depending on whether you would like to also have fibers without a start or endpoint in the structure or not.

Now:

• Use "Analyze" -> "MatDict" -> "GAD Object Analysis" -> "Analyze Objects" and click "Edit"
• Go to the "Analyze Options" tab and choose your settings
• Important to keep the "Volume" option for your case and click "OK" and "Run"

This gives you a result file with a plot like that:
[attachimg=1]

You also have other options for the x and y axis, for example choosing cumulative distributions or relative volume distributions.
Is such a plot what you are looking for to determine if the domain is suitable?

Hello Elise,

I'd like to understand the motivation for your questions better. Would you like to obtain a Plot of the "Fiber Volume" over their "Relative Counts"?
Or some other kind of Plot, Graph or analysis of the fiber volumes?

Best regards,
Aaron

Basic functionality and features (GeoDict Base Package) / Re: What changed in GDR files in GeoDict 2023 compared to earlier versions?

« on: April 18, 2023, 03:39:09 PM »

Hello Andreas,

for setting the language for gdr by default to python you need to go to "Settings" -> "Style Configurator" and select python and enter the extentions under "User ext. :".
And also click "Save & Close" as in this image:

Best regards,

Hello Andreas,
for GeoDict 2023 we changed the syntax for those files to YAML, but to make sure that it has a good usability we chose a Python compatible variant.
This means you can set your text editor both to Python and YAML and will give your used highliting and collapsability behaviour.
Cheers,
Aaron

Export of files and images (ExportGeo modules) / Re: ExportGeo-Base Export of 2DImageStack

« on: March 20, 2023, 03:04:39 PM »

Hello,

Since GeoDict 2023 we offer the option to have structures with up to 256 different material IDs. For the ExportGeo-Base to image stack export, each ID number simply is mapped to the same grey value number (for 8 bits they are in the range of 0-255).

It might lead to image stackes, where one grey value is 0 and the other is 1, which are very close to the same tone of grey. This means that the stack is not "completely" black, but hard to distinguish for the human eye. If you import those pictures into a program you can still continue working with discrete pixel information.

If you want to have a closer look at the picture with the bare eye, you can reassign the materials IDs before exporting. For example, if you have a structure with the material IDs 0, 1 and 2 you can use ProcessGeo:Reassign:

• 0 -> 0
• 1 -> 127
• 2 -> 255

That way the IDs will corresponde to the grey values, 0, 127 and 255, which are very well distinguishable on a 2d image.

Air- and Liquid Filtration / Re: Regarding the fineness of the fiber (denier)

« on: November 16, 2022, 09:27:00 AM »

Hello Daisuke,thank you for posting.
We did some research and Denier means:
\[ 1~denier = \frac{1~g}{9000~m} \]

We added this feature idea to our WeaveGeo development plan for GeoDict 2024.

Modelling and generation (-Geo modules) / Re: how do i create a larger weave

« on: October 12, 2021, 09:38:26 AM »

Hi Sarah,
you can change the size of the weaves in WeaveGeo by heading to the Domain tab and can add periodic cells of the weave in X-/Weft-Direction or Y-/Warp-Direction to the weave by chaning the Unit Cells option here.

How do I use the Latex Editor?

• You can use the Latex Editor by clicking on the fMath formatting option above the text area.
• There are two different options:
  
  • One that creates formulas inline \( A = \pi r^{2} \)
  • And one that creates formulas in a new paragraph \[ A = \pi r^{2} \]
  • For latex code in a new paragraph, enter your latex code between this operators:

Code: [Select]

[latex] A = \pi r^{2}[/latex]

• For latex code in line, enter your latex code between this two operators:

Code: [Select]

[latex=inline] A = \pi r^{2}[/latex]

• You can create code blocks as seen above by using the code block tags:

Code: [Select]

[code] Your code here [/code ]
