Parallel Isosurface Generator for Huge Datasets.

摘要

A parallel C implementation of the marching cubes method is discussed. The input data for the code consists of a variation of the unformatted PLOT3D grid and solution files. PLOT3D files can define an irregularly or regularly spaced mesh and the associated scalars given by v(x,y,z), F(x,y,z), and S sub n = F(x,y,z), respectively. The output is a collection of three-sided polygons defining a constant value of F(x,y,z), and a second scalar which will be mapped onto this surface. The output is given in the Bop (Bag-O-Polygons) file format.
