You can have a loog to the challenge 'Import a microstructure' of the online basic training (https://micress.rwth-aachen.de/basic-training-22.04.html). It's on the 2nd day. In principle, you have to switch from an recti-linear grid definition to a structured grid by editing the VTK file. Data remain...

I am not quite sure if I understand your problem. You can raise the resolution of your simulation if you decrease the grid spacing in the geometry section. The size of your simulation area (might be an RVE) is defined by the number of cells times spacing. To cope with your output error, please give ...

I am afraid that we cannot display IPF maps from Miller indices at the moment. Sorry. Regarding DP 6.1: This is really old stuff. The 'exe' is an self-extracting archive. If you unzip it manually, you will find an 'Manual.pdf'. Unfortunately, it says that the option you are looking for is only avail...

Hi Moritz,

you can convert the MICRESS native format with DP_MICRESS to VTK or ASCII (File->Export as dataset).
Data order is ordered by loops over z, y, x. Z is the outer loop.

Hi Moritz,

we had detected some problem with compatibility of MICRESS 7.0 to newest databases.
Which MICRESS version did you use?

Did you double check your GES5 file creation macro? Is ZR defined when after appending the mobility database?

Best,
Ralph

Sorry. There are not really more details. * You have a PGM picture, the perl script (attached ) and a perl interpreter. * You run it like above and you will get the 2D ASCII file with the pixel values in it which can be read in by MICRESS as an initial microstructure. * the geometry (picture size) h...

I hope that you installed a perl interpreter. These packages include an exe like perl.exe. A perl script can be executed the way below. Please forget the PGM_to_MICRESS.exe and take the script (it is a text file) from the MICRESS tools folder. I think there is also a link in the other post. perl.exe...

Hi Jane, sorry. I thought I had modified all documentation where a PGM_to_MICRESS.exe is mentioned. Where did you read it? In fact the provided PGM_to_MICRESS is a Perl script not an executable. We will port this to Python in future. You need a to install a Perl interpreter to run it on Windows (e.g...

You can use pseudo 2D microstructures, i.e. one voxel layer. It is recommended to set the Y dimension to one for later use in MICRESS. For further documentation of Dream.3D, you have to rely on their documentation. Filter help pages (accessed from inside Dream.3D: question mark) are useful. Best, Ra...

Nothing received in support, yet. Meanwhile I tested a little bit. The problem might be using binary VTK files. There seem to be a bug. Did you try VTK ascii? You can easily convert your file with DP_MICRESS. If you rerun your former simulation to the point you wish to continue with, you can take th...
