Elmer Discussion Forum

Hi,

I am trying to output the results of the "Eigen Modes Of An Elastic Plate" from "ElmerTutorialFilesGUI" collection in vtu format.

This is how my solver for the output looks:
When i open the .vtu in Paraview I get the message "Data range too small to render". I check the file and it has zeros where i suppose the deflection solutions should be.
If I load the .ep results with elmerpost everything looks as it should and i can see the expected eigen mode solutions.

Does anyone know how to output to vtu the results of such eigen mode solutions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

What version do you have of Elmer? There was some problems quite some time ago.

For the current version you can also have "Eigen Analysis = Logical True" to write each eigenmode to different file.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the reply.

I am using version 6.1.0. Could this version be a problem?
Can I use "Eigen Analysis = Logical True" with this version?

Hi Alexanda

Yes, unfortunately your version is so old that the error report is not relevant. I believe the current version works better.

Hi Peter,

I will try with the latest version, thanks for the tip.

Hi again,

In fact, after getting the latest version running i could create a good vtu file for Paraview.
Thanks.
