About this Block
What it does: Creates a field interpolated from Point Map data. The block creates a Scalar Field from an imported Scalar Point Map, or a Vector Field from a Vector Point Map. Common uses:- Converting simulation results into a field (which enables you to edit your part with the simulation results).
- Linear: Values in between points are linearly scaled from the values of the nearest points.
- Natural: Values in between points are scaled while considering the nearest points and points further out, to smoothen out the interpolation.
- Nearest: Values maintain the exact value of the nearest point.
- Barycentric: Values are interpolated linearly from the three closest points, which define a tetrahedral. This method is recommended for point maps extracted from tetrahedral mesh, like Von Mises Stress Point Map or Temperature Point Map.
- Nearest: Values match the values at the end of the extrapolation region and extend outward with that value.
- Linear: Values scale outward from the trend of values of the field as it reaches the extrapolation region.
- Exponential: Values scale outward while considering the trend of multiple points sampled inward into the interpolation region.
- None: Outside of the interpolation region, the values are set to zero.
