DESCRIPTION
SPLASH: A visualisation tool for SPH data (c)2004-2020 Daniel Price and contributors v2.10.1 [24th June 2020]
Usage with flags: splash [-p fileprefix] [-d defaultsfile] [-l limitsfile] [-ev] [-lowmem] [-o format] [-x col] [-y col] [-render col] [-cont col] file1 file2 ...
Command line options:
- -p fileprefix
-
: change prefix to ALL settings files read/written by splash
- -d defaultsfile
-
: change name of defaults file read/written by splash
- -l limitsfile
-
: change name of limits file read/written by splash
- -e, -ev
-
: use default options best suited for line plotting (.ev files)
- -360
-
: set default options suited to 360 video
- -lm, -lowmem
-
: use low memory mode [applies only to sphNG data read at present]
- -o pixformat
-
: dump pixel map in specified format (use just -o for list of formats)
Command line plotting mode:
- -x column
-
: specify x plot on command line (ie. do not prompt for x)
- -y column
-
: specify y plot on command line (ie. do not prompt for y)
- -r[ender] column
-
: specify rendered quantity on command line (ie. no render prompt) (will take columns 1 and 2 as x and y if -x and/or -y not specified)
- -vec[tor] column
-
: specify vector plot quantity on command line (ie. no vector prompt)
-c[ontour] column : specify contoured quantity on command line (ie. no contour prompt)
- -dev device
-
: specify plotting device on command line (ie. do not prompt)
-
convert mode ("splash to X dumpfiles"): splash to ascii : convert SPH data to ascii file dumpfile.ascii
- to binary
-
: convert SPH data to simple unformatted binary dumpfile.binary:
- write(1) time,np,ncols
-
do i=1,np
- write(1) dat(1:ncols),itype
-
enddo
- to stream
-
: convert SPH data to streamed binary format dumpfile.binarystream:
-
t,np,ncols,np*(dat(1:ncols),itype) [4,4,4,np*(ncols*4,4)] bytes
-
to phantom : convert SPH data to binary dump file for PHANTOM to gadget : convert SPH data to default GADGET snapshot file format
-
Grid conversion mode ("splash to X dumpfiles"):
- splash to grid
-
: interpolate basic SPH data (density, plus velocity if present in data)
-
to 2D or 3D grid, write grid data to file (using default output=ascii)
- to gridascii
-
: as above, grid data written in ascii format
- to gridascii2
-
: grid data written in ascii format, all in one file
- to gridbinary
-
: as above, grid data in simple unformatted binary format:
- write(unit) nx,ny,nz,ncolumns,time,xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,zmin,zmax [ 4x4,7x8 bytes ]
-
write(unit) (((rho(i,j,k),i=1,nx),j=1,ny),k=1,nz) [ 8 bytes each ] write(unit) (((vx(i,j,k), i=1,nx),j=1,ny),k=1,nz) [ 8 bytes each ] write(unit) (((vy(i,j,k), i=1,nx),j=1,ny),k=1,nz) [ 8 bytes each ] write(unit) (((...(i,j,k),i=1,nx),j=1,ny),k=1,nz) [ 8 bytes each ]
- to gridstream
-
: grid data in byte-stream binary format (e.g. for python):
-
nx,ny,nz,ncolumns,time,xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,zmin,zmax,rho [ 4,4,4,4,8*7,8*nx*ny*nz ]
- allto grid
-
: as above, interpolating *all* columns to the grid (and output file)
- allto gridascii
-
: as above, with ascii output
- allto gridbinary
-
: as above, with binary output
-
Analysis mode ("splash calc X dumpfiles") on a sequence of dump files:
- splash calc energies
-
: calculate KE,PE,total energy vs time
-
output to file called 'energy.out'
- calc massaboverho : mass above a series of density thresholds vs time
-
output to file called 'massaboverho.out'
- calc max
-
: maximum of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'maxvals.out'
- calc min
-
: minimum of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'minvals.out'
- calc diff
-
: (max - min) of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'diffvals.out'
- calc amp
-
: 0.5*(max - min) of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'ampvals.out'
- calc delta
-
: 0.5*(max - min)/mean of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'deltavals.out'
- calc mean
-
: mean of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'meanvals.out'
- calc rms
-
: (mass weighted) root mean square of each column vs. time
-
output to file called 'rmsvals.out'
- calc tracks
-
: track particle data vs time for selected* particle,
-
output to file called 'tracks.out'
-
( * select "xy limits relative to particle" in l)imits menu", or
-
press "t" in interactive mode, and save settings to splash.defaults )
-
the above options all produce a small ascii file with one row per input file. the following option produces a file equivalent in size to one input file (in ascii format):
- calc timeaverage
-
: time average of *all* entries for every particle
-
output to file called 'time_average.out'
- calc ratio
-
: ratio of *all* entries in each file compared to first
-
output to file called 'ratio.out'
-
