// .NAME vtkStreamLine - generate streamline in arbitrary dataset
|
|
// .SECTION Description
|
|
// vtkStreamLine is a filter that generates a streamline for an arbitrary
|
|
// dataset. A streamline is a line that is everywhere tangent to the vector
|
|
// field. Scalar values also are calculated along the streamline and can be
|
|
// used to color the line. Streamlines are calculated by integrating from
|
|
// a starting point through the vector field. Integration can be performed
|
|
// forward in time (see where the line goes), backward in time (see where the
|
|
// line came from), or in both directions. It also is possible to compute
|
|
// vorticity along the streamline. Vorticity is the projection (i.e., dot
|
|
// product) of the flow rotation on the velocity vector, i.e., the rotation
|
|
// of flow around the streamline.
|
|
//
|
|
// vtkStreamLine defines the instance variable StepLength. This parameter
|
|
// controls the time increment used to generate individual points along
|
|
// the streamline(s). Smaller values result in more line
|
|
// primitives but smoother streamlines. The StepLength instance variable is
|
|
// defined in terms of time (i.e., the distance that the particle travels in
|
|
// the specified time period). Thus, the line segments will be smaller in areas
|
|
// of low velocity and larger in regions of high velocity. (NOTE: This is
|
|
// different than the IntegrationStepLength defined by the superclass
|
|
// vtkStreamer. IntegrationStepLength is used to control integration step
|
|
// size and is expressed as a fraction of the cell length.) The StepLength
|
|
// instance variable is important because subclasses of vtkStreamLine (e.g.,
|
|
// vtkDashedStreamLine) depend on this value to build their representation.
