SimpleGeo 3.0 and gearingup for the next release Chris Theis
Overview SimpleGeo3.0 & the next release 3.1 Plugins2.0 & the next release 2.1
SimpleGeo 3.0 • Importer: • Cards (e.g. ASSIGNMAT, BIASING) can now mix numbers and names • Full support of preprocessor up to arbitrary recursion depth • Name recognition is case insensitive – less error prone! • Named ranges are not supported! • Exporter: • MCNP(X), automatic conversion of names by SG! • More 3D formats (3DS, PLY, PBRT, STL, etc.)
SimpleGeo 3.0 • Some new macros: • Conversion of names tonumbers • Conversion of numbers to names • Auto-save function • Calculation of surface areas(via Node-Info in the context menu) • Click and zoom
Measuring distances 2D Arbitrary distances measured directly in parallel projections (XY, YZ, ZX)
Measuring distances 3D Distances between snap-points can be measuredin arbitrary projections
SimpleGeo 3.1 Major features likely to be included in V3.1 • Mathematical expressions supported in numeric property fieldsand in the normalization in DaVis3D. • Improved renderer (e.g. new render mode hard contours) • Splitting wizard (automatic generation of split regions)
SimpleGeo 3.1 • A lot of users are migrating to Windows Vista: • V3.1 fully Vista compliant • Heavily optimized for Vista: • New proprietary memory management • SSE2 instruction set used • Parallelization currently evaluated (very early test phase)
SG plugins PipsiCAD3D – particle track visualization Ionization chamber with e- tracks in a magnetic field Courtesy of Helmut Vincke,co-author of PipsiCAD3D Electron tracks due to photons impinging on a thin aluminium plate
PipsiCAD3D Demo video • How to do it: • Link a specialized MGDRAW.F to FLUKA • Add a USERDUMP card • 3. Process the binary with the supplied PipsiCAD program under Linux • 4. Load the result with the PipsiCAD3D plugin & press play
SimpleGeo/DaVis3D Available in DaVis3D 2.5: • Added support for RZ and R-Phi-Z meshes with arbitrary resolution. • (XYZ is still the fastest topology!) • Calculate average + errors of several ASCII USRBIN • result files • Several meshes (also with different resolutions and/or spatial distributions) can be displayed at the same time by loading multiple instances of the plugin.
Data extraction • Extraction of values(planes, profile functions or single bins)
DaVis3D 3.x • Question: • What’s the average dose • at a workplace? • Solution: • Rough estimate from the • 2D dose map (might not match in 3D!) • Foresee a geometric region in the input Courtesy of E. Feldbaumer, H. Vincke
Data post-processing Courtesy of E. Feldbaumer, H. Vincke • Alternative solution: • Define arbitrary volume • interactively while browsing the data. • Calculate averages on-the-fly while • moving the volume through the data set
Threshold detection Typical question: Where is the region with values > X ? Development of an automatic threshold contouring algorithm
Photorealistic renderings MC simulation of optical photon transport No interactivity & higher rendering times Better image quality Not yet sure wheter it will be in V3.1
