vtkExtractTensorComponents is a filter that extracts components of a tensor to create a scalar, vector, normal, or texture coords. For example, if the tensor contains components of stress, then you could extract the normal stress in the x-direction as a scalar (i.e., tensor component (0,0).
To use this filter, you must set some boolean flags to control which data is extracted from the tensors, and whether you want to pass the tensor data through to the output. Also, you must specify the tensor component(s) for each type of data you want to extract. The tensor component(s) is(are) specified using matrix notation into a 3x3 matrix. That is, use the (row,column) address to specify a particular tensor component; and if the data you are extracting requires more than one component, use a list of addresses. (Note that the addresses are 0-offset -> (0,0) specifies upper left corner of the tensor.)
There are two optional methods to extract scalar data. You can extract the determinant of the tensor, or you can extract the effective stress of the tensor. These require that the ivar ExtractScalars is on, and the appropriate scalar extraction mode is set.
To create an instance of class vtkExtractTensorComponents, simply invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkExtractTensorComponents
The class vtkExtractTensorComponents has several methods that can be used. They are listed below. Note that the documentation is translated automatically from the VTK sources, and may not be completely intelligible. When in doubt, consult the VTK website. In the methods listed below, obj
is an instance of the vtkExtractTensorComponents class.
