Hierarchical Fractal (HierarchicalFractal)
Test source for AMR with HierarchicalDataSet
The Hierarchical Fractal source is a collection of uniform grids. All have the same dimensions. Each block has a different origin and spacing. This source uses the Mandelbrot source to create cell data. The fractal array is scaled to look like a volme fraction.

PropertyDescriptionDefault Value(s)Restrictions
Asymetric
(Asymetric)
If this property is set to 0, all the blocks will be the same size. If it is set to 1, an asymmetric dataset will be created: some blocks will have an X dimension that is larger by 2 units. 0

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Dimensions
(Dimensions)
This property specifies the X, Y, Z cell dimensions of a block. 10

The value must be greater than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 64.

 
Fractal Value
(FractalValue)
The value of this property will be mapped to 0.5 for use as a volume fraction. 9.5

The value must be greater than or equal to 0.

 
Ghost Levels
(GhostLevels)
This property specifies whether ghost levels should be generated at processor boundaries. 1

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Maximum Level
(MaximumLevel)
This property specifies how many levels of refinement should be included in this hierarchical dataset. 5

The value must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 10.

 
Rectilinear Grids
(RectilinearGrids)
If this property is set to 1, the hierarchical dataset will contain rectilinear grids; otherwise it will contain uniform grids. 0

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.

 
Time Step
(TimeStep)
This property specifies the timestep to use for this dataset. 0  
Two Dimensional
(TwoDimensional)
If this property is set to 1, the generated dataset will be 2D; otherwise it will be 3D. 1

Only the values 0 and 1 are accepted.
