VMAP Working Groups


VMAP Working Group - Full Model Storage : Breaking the communication barriers among different solvers

It is a common situation, when working on multidisciplinary workflows, that several solvers
are involved. One of the main characteristics of these processes is that the input for each of
the involved solvers is the result file from a previous step. Consequently, engineers
monitoring such processes must know how to use all these different solvers.
In particular, the engineers not only need to be able to set up a model for each solver, but
also need to recognize and fix any incompatibility arising from a previous step. Unfortunately,
this increases the complexity of an already demanding process. Read more here...



VMAP Working Group - Sensor Data Storage

A representation of the measurement procedure with comprehensive aspects of measurement data. The data are formally divided into two categories. The elements depicted in red are standardized data sets. On the one hand, these include the full measurement result, consisting of the measured value and the measurement uncertainty, and on the other hand, measurement points, to which the measurement result is assigned. Additional information about the measurement, such as descriptions of the measurement setup, the measurement object, influencing factors, and post-processing methods, are also taken into account.

VMAP Working Group - Visualization of VMAP Data Sets

This working group in VMAP SC is focusing on development of a VMAP plug-in for the Paraview, an open-source multiple-platform application for interactive, scientific visualization.
The following functionalities have been implemented based on some of the use cases and feedback from the VMAP Analytics project:
Multiple parts, Individual part and variables selection, Static or transient variables, Variables on nodes, elements, or integration points (averaged to elements), Scalars, vectors, and 2nd order symmetric tensor (visualized as von Mises), Partial results, Deformed geometry via DISPLACEMENT variable.
