I have tested the following workflow successfully: 1. Generate an initial grain structure with MIC 6.003 in MIC format 2. Converted it to VTK ascii point data with DP_MICRESS 7 3. Converted it manually by changing POINT_DATA to CELL_DATA and raising the dimensions by 1 4, Read in the grain structure...

* edited * * edited* In DP_MICRESS 7, we decided to convert to point data because it is more comfortable to display with Paraview, i.e. using the contour filter. However, DP7 does no interpolation to get point data from MICRESS' cell data if you do not change the grid geometry. The cell data is just...

I forgot to mention that this is a deterministic type of grain input. See examples 'stress' or 'temperature'. The kind of grain input and number of grains has also to be set in the grain input section.

Dear Zhanna, first you have to define your simulation area in one of the fist sections headed 'geometry' of the driving file. In the section 'grain input', you define grains according your layered structure and assign phases to them. # E.g. for a 100 x 100 micrometre 2D simulation area: AnzX 100 Anz...

You are right. Using the MICRESS VTK output directly is a workaround to get a VTK file omitting DP_MICRESS 6.1.
However, DP 6.1 is not able to display or perform analysis on VTK files.
A capability, we introduce with DP 7.0.

Dear Zhanna, first, of course, I have to ask the obvious question. Did you check if the file is empty, i.e. are you able to display it with DP_MICRESS? If the file is ok, it is an unknown bug in DP_MICRESS 6.x as far as I know. I recommend to use the version 7 of Display MICRESS which will be part o...

Hi Ben, do you think of a logarithmic color scale? It is not implemented, yet. We will discuss whether that might be useful or not. It is possible to export virtual EDX scans as a table (comma separated file), see file menu of the plot window. On these files you can use other tools (e.g. GNUplot) to...

All the MICRESS versions can be found in the MICRESS.../bin folder for a normal installation. For Linux, the easiest way to start another version is to copy the executable (MICRESS_TQS_x32) and matching TQ library (lib32/libtq32_S.so) to a new folder. Just rename the library to libtq.so and add the ...

Hi Ben,

unfortunately, the GES5 file format is also architecture dependent (32/64 bit).
You attached a file made with a 32 bit version of TCCS. It works with MICRESS_TQS_x32.

Hi Ben, a quotation of my email for info of other users: TQ (version S, resp. 7) is a third party (Thermo-Calc) library with it’s own license management. Thermo-Calc switched to a Safenet Sentinel license management. Therefore an additional installation is necessary (section 3.2.2. of MICRESS manual...
