Remove small numbers from dump file

Submitted by rchurley on Fri, 02/22/2013 - 22:24

I would like to set any small numbers (e.g., below 1e-15) to zero in my dump file. If I do not do this, paraview does not like my vtk files - I get the error: "Error reading ascii data. Possible mismatch of datasize with declaration."

Does anybody know of a simple way to do this using dump_modify or a similar command in the input script?

Hi rchurley,

I never had that problem. I guess technically it's more kind of a paraview issue. Afaik, there is no easy direct solution within LIGGGHTS (without modifying the code) to solve that problem.
