Restarted Sim Exodus Reader (ExodusRestartReader)
Read collections of Exodus output files from simulations that were restarted.
When a simulation that outputs exodus files is restarted, typically you get a new set of output files. When you read them in your visualization, you often want to string these file sets together as if it was one continuous dump of files. This reader allows you to specify a metadata file that will implicitly string the files together.
PropertyDescriptionDefault Value(s)Restrictions
File Name
(FileName)
This points to a special metadata file that lists the output files for each restart.    
Use Meta File
(UseMetaFile)
This hidden property must always be set to 1 for this proxy to work. 1

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Apply Displacements
(ApplyDisplacements)
Geometric locations can include displacements. When this option is on, the nodal positions are 'displaced' by the standard exodus displacement vector. If displacements are turned 'off', the user can explicitly add them by applying a warp filter. 1

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Displacement Magnitude
(DisplacementMagnitude)
When displacements are being applied, they are scaled by this amount. Set to 1 for no scaling. 1

Has Mode Shapes
(HasModeShapes)
Some simulations overload the Exodus time steps to represent mode shapes. In this case, it does not make sense to iterate over the "time steps", because they are not meant to be played in order. Rather, each represents the vibration at a different "mode." Setting the value of this property to 1 changes the semantics of the reader to not report the time steps to downstream filters. 0

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Mode Shape

Specify the current mode shape when HasModeShapes in on. 0
