Computational Model Builder for Multi-Dimensional Models

Abstract

This report summarizes Kitware's efforts to provide ERDC with a suite of pre-processing tools that could support the various hydrological-based simulation workflows used by several laboratories. This effort has been named Computational Model Builder (CMB) and includes applications for processing LiDAR (PointsBuilder), creating appropriate geometric scenes (SceneBuilder), creating appropriate model topology and simulation information such as materials and boundary conditions (ModelBuilder), and manipulation of meshes (MeshViewer). In addition tools to support both the Environmental Simulation Effort (ES) and the Engineered Resilient Systems (ERS). Various ParaView extensions to support ERDC's post-processing needs (including PinCurve) were also developed.
