Description

Summary

Compute the derivative of a scalar lattice and output it as a vector lattice.

Detailed Description

The CalculateLatVolGradientsAtNodes module computes the derivative of a scalar field and converts it to a vector field. The gradient is the derivative of three dimensions; the first component in the X direction, the second component in the Y direction, and the third component in the Z direction grid, computing the general direction of "flow" at a specific point on the geometry.

CalculateLatVolGradientsAtNodes only supports computation of the gradient on node centered LatVolFields of scalar type. The CalculateLatVolGradientsAtNodes module has no GUI. If CalculateLatVolGradientsAtNodes recieves as input a Field type it does not support, an error message appears in the Error frame of the SCIRun environment.
