Exporting results for visualisation

We now turn to the exporter facility of Feel++ which allows to provide the results of Feel++ solves in a format readable by ParaView or EnSight.

In this 2D and 3D example, we

  • download a mesh description from github.com/feelpp/feelpp/

  • build the mesh and partition it

  • build a function space \(X_h\)

  • create an element \(u\) of \(X_h\) which interpolate an expression givn by the end-user

  • export to the Ensight Gold format (the default Feel++ format) of Feel++

Example to build a mesh and function space, create an element and visualize them in ParaView
404: Not Found

To run this example,

mpiexec -n 4 python3 test_exporter.py

The location of the results are shown in the output of the script.

It remains to open the file .case with ParaView or EnSight.

It should look like this
