Convert results without GUI

Hello,

I am wondering if there is any way to convert the SimVascular outputs to vtk without using the SimVascular GUI, like from command line?

The problem I am facing is that I am running a bunch of simulations using HPC, but then I have to copy them to my personal laptop one by one and convert the results there. Since these are quite big, just downloading them to my laptop takes a lot of time, therefore, I'm wondering if there is a way to do the result conversion directly in an HPC environment using some command line tools?

Thanks!

Hello,

You can convert simulations results using the svpost program that is built with svsolver.

You can use a bash script that looks something like this

Code: Select all

svpost=$HOME/svSolver/build/svSolver-build/bin/svpost

indir=4-procs_case
outdir=export
start=100
stop=500
inc=100

$svpost -all  \
    -indir ${indir}   \
    -outdir ${outdir}  \
    -start ${start}  \
    -stop ${stop}  \
    -incr ${inc}  \
    -vtp all_results  \
    -vtu all_results

Note that svpost does not create the all_results-*.txt files, these are only create from the SV GUI.

Cheers,
Dave
