Abstract

The ParticleVis software system offers full-featured visualization of discrete element method (DEM) computer data for real-time 3D rendering of large sets of particle states. ParticleVis capabilities include:

image

  • adjustable lighting conditions and camera viewing characteristics,
  • options to display translational velocity, rotational velocity, and orientation vectors along with particle pathlines,
  • color-mapped particles based on external data such as speed, force information and residence tie,
  • external vector and scalar fields, such as electromagnetic fields and temperatures,
  • transparent and textured particles,
  • XML-base particle shape files and CAD file rendering,
  • output options for individual frames and movies.

See the ParticleVis Web Site to download the source code.
