I don't understand why.I'm working on a uni project where we analyze light propagation through a medium with a periodic microstructure similar to the model in the screenshot. Bscly taking baby steps here, gotta make sure my calculation software and I are talking about the same 3d data, so I had to visualize the meep output to verify this. (tl;dr: attention seeking 'n stuff. It's the only reason I'm posting in this thread at all ) EDIT: For the keen reader, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroid 04-27-2013, 08:17 AM
And there's no way to convert it to .obj, and then open it in Blender? That's what I'd do.

The model is described by the term sin(x)*cos(y)+sin(y)*cos(z)+sin(z)*cos(x) ... I don't have any model data in the conventional sense, just an equation for the boundary surface of the volume. The output of my calculation software is some .h5 format that I convert to .vtk lateron. I don't know how data is stored specifically in them, possibly just voxel coordinates.
It's nothing like conventional 3D graphics geometry data, anyway. 04-27-2013, 03:16 PM

Does it have anything to do with solar cells? Since I read in the wikipedia article that such structures are sometimes used in them and you talked about light propagation.

I've started working on the project this week (only working 15-20 hours per week), so I don't know in detail what we're targeting at. From what I know, the structure in particular can be found inside butterfly wings whose optical properties aren't completely understood, yet. If anything interesting comes out of my project, more research can be put into actual applications of those effects.
fwiw, it's not a particularly "big" project (I'm still working towards my bachelor's degree); it's mostly me crying about the horrible syntax of scheme and the awkwardness of trying to run software which supposedly works on linux :p 04-27-2013, 07:02 PM
