[Paraview] computing lift/drag coefficient/force in 2d using paraview

[Berk Geveci]

You can't do this out-of-box. However, if you invest some time, it
would be quite easy to write your own filter that does this. It would
be implemented using the VTK API. Although there is an initial
learning curve, at the end you will have complete freedom on what you
can do.
