I want to can we convert H3D result file into VTK or ENSIGHT format ? If we can what is the process.

Hello @Shiva Prasad ,

 

we recently released a script to read vtk in HyperMesh as we collected several feedbacks from users willing to extract forces from CFD analysis to map them to structural analysis:

However, we don't receive to my knowledge requests for writing h3d data to vtk. Could you please provide us some information about your use case?

 

Best Regards,

I want to export the H3D files into other format which is supported by paraview.

hello again, 

 

thanks for your feedback. As I state above, we haven't so far received such feedback because many of our users post-preocess their results either with HyperView or other commercial software supporting h3d format.

I've just looked at Paraview, and I saw it supported h5 format. Maybe this could be an alternate solution, and we propose a software called Altair Composed, dedicated to results reading, processing with advanced math, which can both read h3d and writes hdf5 format.

Here are somee useful links to get familiar with these functionnalities in Compose:

Would that help?
