First Steps in GeoDict
Tutorial, EN
This tutorial provides a systematic introduction to GeoDict and teaches the core functions of the software. Step by step, you will learn how to set up projects, generate and visualize digital material structures, and evaluate simulation results. Practical examples provide a solid understanding of the GeoDict workflow and show how the software can be used specifically in research and development tasks.
In this tutorial you will learn step-by-step:
- Set Up Tutorial Project: Set up a folder for the downloaded input files and precomputed results. Learn where GeoDict stores intermediate and results data on your hard drive and set a project folder to save and store the results of this tutorial.
- Create a 3D Structure Model: Generate the default glass fiber nonwoven with FiberGeo. Learn general features of GeoDict's command option dialogs.
- Work with GeoDict Results: Access simulation results and understand GeoDict file formats.
- Visualize the 3D Structure: Visualize the generated structure in 2D or 3D. Slice through the structure, rotate and zoom using the mouse. Change the colors and visibility of each material.
- Analyze Pore Space: Compute the pore size distribution with PoroDict.
- Run a Flow Simulation: Use FlowDict to start a flow simulation. Learn how to view the solver log and how to cancel the simulation from the progress bar.
- Visualize Simulation Results: Load the simulation results into GeoDict and visualize the flow as streamlines.
