I have two technical questions:<br>
<br>
(1) In the PV filter 'Gradient Of Unstructured Data Set' is the
"QCriterion" function, the Q-Criterion defined by G. Haller in "<i>An
objective definition of a vortex</i>," J. Fluid Mech. (2005), vol.
525, pp.1–26?<br>
<br>
(2) In the PV filter 'Calculator' what is the formula used by the
"mag" function to calculate mag(<b>S</b>) where <b>S</b> is a
symmetric 2nd-order tensor? Using matrix notation, the tensor <b>S</b>
would have the following components:<br>
<br>
---------------<br>
| Sxx Sxy Sxz |<br>
| Sxy Syy Syz |<br>
| Sxz Syz Szz |<br>
---------------<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for the bother,<br>
<br>
