Geometry Output


ViennaPS provides various methods for outputting the surface or volume of the processed domain. The data is typically saved in the VTK file format, with surfaces stored in .vtp files and volumes in .vtu files. For visualization, we recommend using ParaView, a powerful open-source visualization tool. Below, you’ll find further details on the available geometry outputs.

In addition to VTK file formats, ViennaPS provides the flexibility to store level sets directly in the proprietary .lvst format. This feature enables users to save intermediate states during the process, allowing for more detailed analysis and the ability to revisit specific simulation stages.
