CONTOUR PARTS WITH CURVE VALUES¶
Maps scalar values from a dataset onto LS-DYNA model parts and renders a colour-fringe contour image or Peacock3D scene. Use it to visualise per-part KPIs (e.g. intrusion, energy, mass) directly on the geometry without running a full post-processing pipeline.
When to use¶

Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Values To Map | valuestomap | dataset | — | Dataset whose columns carry the per-part scalar values (e.g. KPIs, responses) that will be colour-mapped onto the geometry; leave empty if values are supplied via the mapping table directly. | |
| Generation Type | generation_type | scalar | image | Output format: ‘image’ renders a static PNG fringe plot; ‘peacock3d’ produces an interactive Peacock3D scene — default is ‘image’. | |
| Keyword Data | keyword_data | textarea | — | Valid LS-DYNA keyword text or a filename pointing to keyword data that defines the part geometry/IDs used as the contouring mesh. | |
| Values To Map | mapping_table | textarea | — | Tabular text (CSV-style) mapping part names or part IDs to key-value names in the dataset, controlling which value is painted on each part. | |
| Map Table Order | map_table_order | keyvalue | as_provided | Controls the ordering of entries in the mapping table; currently only ‘as_provided’ is supported, which preserves the row order as given. | |
| Fringe Min Color | fringe_min_color | scalar | 0.0 | Minimum scalar value anchoring the colour scale (dimensionless or user-defined units); values at or below this threshold are rendered in the lowest fringe colour — default is 0.0. | |
| Fringe Max Color | fringe_max_color | scalar | 1.0 | Maximum scalar value anchoring the colour scale (dimensionless or user-defined units); values at or above this threshold are rendered in the highest fringe colour — default is 1.0. | |
| Fringe Min Value | fringe_min_value | scalar | 0.1 | ||
| Fringe Max Value | fringe_max_value | scalar | 0.8 | ||
| View Orientation | view_orientation | text | top | ||
| Title | title | scalar | Part heatmap | ||
| Fringe Levels | fringe_levels | scalar | 4 | ||
| Fringe Average | fringe_average | scalar | none | ||
| Fringe Reverse Colors | fringe_reverse_colors | scalar | on | ||
| Rotations | rotations | scalar | rz 90 |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| keyvalue_generate_part_contours_output_1 | keyvalue_generate_part_contours_output_1 | view | Rendered view (PNG image or Peacock3D scene) showing the LS-DYNA model geometry with parts colour-contoured according to the mapped scalar values. |
