Справка Houdini на русском Nodes Geometry nodes

Volume Analysis geometry node

Computes analytic properties of volumes.

On this page

The Volume Analysis operation computes analytic properties of the volumes, such as the gradient and curvature. This is done in the local space of the volume. These are a function of more than one voxel so are more difficult to compute inside a Volume VOP.

Where possible, these operations occur in place and preserve the name. If new volumes have to be created, it is attempted to ensure they gain the .x, .y, .z style suffixes in their name attribute.

The length is calculated by measuring the slope of increasing values. For example, if temperature rises faster over a shorter distance, it will create a bigger gradient. If temperature is a height field, then gradient length is how steep the hill is.

Note

This node currently only works with standard Houdini volumes. It does not work with VDBs.
