Select Threshold to Structure to segment the volume field and create a structure using one or two thresholds.

If the value of the volume field is above the chosen threshold, the voxel gets another Material ID than a voxel where the value is below the chosen threshold.

If the Threshold Mode is set to >=, voxel that are smaller than the threshold get a smaller Material ID. With the other mode (<=) the assignment of the Material IDs is turned around.

If Number of Thresholds is 1 and 3D rendering was chosen before, check Preview Threshold in 3D to visualize the created structure before clicking Run to start the structure generation.

Example

With the shown settings, we define 2 thresholds to create a structure with voxels of

• ID 00, where the von Mises Strain is below 1e-6,

• ID 01 where the von Mises Strain is above 1e-06 and below 4e-6,
• and ID 02 at locations with von Mises Strain above 4e-06.
