VTK显示技术在铸造模拟软件中的应用

Application of VTK Display Technology on Casting Simulation Software

VTK(Visualization Toolkit)是一个面向对象的可视化类库,具有强大的可视化功能和图形、图像处理能力。通过介绍VTK技术的层次结构和显示机制,并将其应用于铸造模拟软件EasyCast的开发过程中,与国内同类使用OpenGL作为开发工具的软件相比,VTK具有更加优秀的显示效果。

The technology of casting simulation has been widely used in production.The development of better visualization is a very important job.VTK（Visualization Toolkit） is an object-oriented visualized class library.It has extensive capability in visualization and graphic processing.The hierarchy about VTK and display way about VTK is introduced.VTK has been used in casting simulation software（EasyCast）.Compared to other similar software that display results using OpenGL,casting simulation software based VTK can display results of simulation more realistic.
