Converting dump files to VTK

Submitted by aquinolarosa on Mon, 02/01/2016 - 16:52

Hi All,

Please can you kindly help me with the following:
I have created my dump files, however I am struggling on converting them. I did the following:
cd $HOME/LIGGGHTS/liggghts_GIT/examples/LIGGGHTS/newContactModels
liggghts < in.newModels

cd post
ls

pizza
d=dump(“dump.newModels”). At this step I keep getting an error: Invalid syntax

Is there something I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help

Don't use pizza, use lpp
lpp dump*.newModels
or compile LIGGGHTS with the VTK library and use dump custom/vtk instead of dump custom which writes the simulation data to vtk files that can be read by paraview without the need for any conversion.
