A python plot3D library for reading, writing, finding connectivity, and post processing for Plot3D data files.
To install simply do a pip install plot3d
Metis is used to group the blocks to be evaluated. So say you have 1000 blocks and 8 CPU. The blocks are split up and sent to the CPU or GPU. The split is done with weighting to block size and connectivity this way each processor is evaluating similar number of nodes. Plot3D Library will work without metis but metis functionality wont be available.
Metis needs to be installed and configured as part of your METIS_DLL or LD_LIBRARY path
- Download Metis http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/metis/metis/download
- Follow the compiling instructions
Add to your profile for Ubuntu
# metis
export PATH="/home/[username]/metis:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/[username]/metis:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"For Mac. install homebrew and do brew install metis then add this to your ~/.zprofile
# Metis
export METIS_DLL=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/metis/5.1.0/lib/libmetis.dylib- Install metis python library
pip install metis

Periodicity with axially rotated and copied blocks
Learning Bash for Automating Tasks
Never use jupyter notebook unless you are done with your .py file and want to demo code. Jupyter is painful for debugging.
