Read HBM Visualisation entities
Read HBM visualisation entities (*.vis file)
It is possible to view the HBM visualisation entities in D3PLOT by reading in the HBM visual entities related groups from a *.vis file, created from HBM visualisation table in PRIMER.
The following rules apply for *.vis file:
- It should be loaded with the Ansys LS-DYNA results (*.ptf/d3plot file) of the same model for which it is created in PRIMER.
- This file is not read in automatically when a new model is opened for the first time in D3PLOT.
- This file contains the visual properties details (colour, transparency, blanking status etc.) of the HBM visualisation related groups.
- The visual attributes of the groups are applied on the model in the graphics area as soon as the groups file is read.
The following image shows the steps to read the *.vis file. (Model acknowledgements: GHBMC - Elemance)
The following images show the workflow to view only a particular visual entity of an HBM. This can be done via the Groups panel or the Part Tree.
In the example shown in the images, the visual properties are defined in a *GROUP for the "Outer Skin Shell" entities in a Human Body Model (Colour - Orange, Transparency - 70%).
These entities in the "Outer Skin Shells" group are displayed with the group visual properties, when the group is selected under ONLY menu in the docked panel.
