Result Visualization & Post-Processing

Default Result Visualization

By default, the visualization produced by the Intact Stress block includes both Displacement, Strain, and Stress fields. These can be accessed like other simulation results in nTop. Currently, visualization is supported on a surface tessellation for surface mesh/voxel grid, or slices for implicit geometry (visualization directly on implicit is a work in progress).

Resampling an Existing Solution

The solution is computed on an immersed grid and can be interpolated within the grid cells. To resample an existing solution, use the Intact Resample block. Resampling can generate a better visualization or create slice/cross-section views.

📌 For a resampling example see the file Example_StaticConnectingRod.ntop and Example_GyroidShear.ntop in the C:\Users\$username$\AppData\Local\Programs\Intact.Simulation for nTop\Getting Started\Static Structural folder. Update the Project Directory variables and manually run the unloaded blocks to generate the geometry.
