Title

Vapor 3: A modern 3D visualization suite for Geophysical Sciences

Abstract

Vapor v3.1 is an open-source, cross platform visualization and analysis tool for finite element simulations in the physical sciences. Vapor offers users a set of tools called Renderers that let them depict their simulation data in different ways. With this most recent release, Vapor has undergone a significant refactorization of its code base which has spanned a 15 year history. Much of Vaporâ€™s old code has been discarded and rewritten to improve its ease of use, maintainability, and rendering quality. These improvements aim to help scientists easily demonstrate their simulations in a way that results in superior communication of their research. The video pertaining to this submission will demonstrate how Vapor is used, new features in the current version, and how things have changed since the previous major release, Vapor 2.6.
