Converting liggghts output to the right visualization format

Submitted by wenglee on Thu, 03/03/2016 - 23:59

Hi everyone,

I tried to run my simulations in liggghts and open it in Paraview. I tried to modify the dump file using custom/vtk and I tried to install the liggghts plugin in paraview as well but all my visualization seems to appear in squarish appearance as shown in the image i provided in this forum post.

I heard some used pizza.py and lpp for the visualization but I am unsure on how to use them. I installed pizza.py by using the steps:

"LPP can be downloaded by git only. For download and installation follow this procedure:
Open a terminal and go to the desired installation path, then download the latest version of LPP by typing:
git clone git@github.com:CFDEMproject/LPP.git
To install LPP execute ./install.sh in the LPP directory and follow the instructions given."

I am unsure on what else should I do after that. I am new to liggghts and I could not find a suitable visualization software that can show my particles in spherical structure to present in my presentation.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks.
