Purpose of the thorn + +This thorn does 1D, 2D, and 3D output of grid variables in SDF file format. + +1D output slices through the edge (in octant mode) or center +(in all origin-centered modes) of the grid in the x,y, and z directions. +If the grid is cubed it will also slice in the diagonal direction. + +2D output is done for the xy, xz, and yz plane. + +3D output is simply done for the full 3D grid variables. + +The IO methods "IOSDF_1D", "IOSDF_2D", and "IOSDF_3D" are registered +which can be called by other thorns via CCTK_OutputVarAsByMethod() +to output a variable without specifying it in the parameter file. + + +2. Additional information + +See the thorn documentation and check out the "Data Visualization with DV and +xvs" webpage http://localhost/CactusWebSite/VizTools/DataVaultXVSutils.html. + + +3. Acknowledgements + +Thanks to Luis Lehner who had the idea for this thorn. |
