[Paraview] Fwd: Question about strain from filter: Compute Derivatives -> Vector -> Strain.... type?

[Tim Bhatnagar]

Hi all,

I was hoping someone could confirm the 'type' of strain that is computed
through the 'compute derivatives' filter.

Specifically - is it a Green-Lagrange strain tensor computation, which
allows for 'large' deformations, or has the formulation been simplified
down to the 'infinitesimal strain' tensor?

Thanks very much!
