ATDM/ECP Milestone Memo WBS 2.3.4.04 / SNL ATDM Data and Visualization Projects STDV04-21 - [MS1/YR2] Q3: Prototype Catalyst/ParaView in-situ viz for unsteady RV flow on ATS-1

Moreland, Kenneth D.

ParaView Catalyst is an API for accessing the scalable visualization infrastructure of ParaView in an in-situ context. In-situ visualization allows simulation codes to access data post-processing operations while the simulation is running. In-situ techniques can reduce data post-processing time, allow computational steering, and increase the resolution and frequency of data output. For a simulation code to use ParaView Catalyst, adapter code needs to be created that interfaces the simulations data structures to ParaView/VTK data structures. Under ATDM, Catalyst is to be integrated with SPARC, a code used for simulation of unsteady reentry vehicle flow.
