streamline terminated at zone boundaries in "AMR" unstructured data

ParaView Support
1

Hi, I have a data file from an AMR simulation stored as an unstructured Hexahedron mesh xdmf + h5 files. When I do streamline tracing, the streamline terminates at boundaries of different zones with different resolutions (see my attachment; in this case my data is polar).

To trace streamline across such boundaries

  • Is it possible to connect these zones?
  • Do I need to convert the data into a Paraview-compatible format? What do I need to know and do?
  • The last resort in my head would be to resample onto a regular mesh, hopefully, polar/spherical. I haven’t started learning about that yet, any suggestions?

Any suggestion is appreciated.
