OBJECTIVE: organize automated procedure and create Sij glyphs that can be used
           either for distance learning or collaborative research using NPIB
  
This is the "$BASE" directory for calculating and visualizing ellipsoid
surface representations of second order stress tensors, Sij.  From this 
"$BASE" directory PV-Wave script procedure files: generate (do_*.pro) 
ellipsoid surfaces ("glyphs") in the ToPology (TP) directory and glyph 
rotations in the ORientation (OR) directoy ,purge (purge_*.pro) files 
from TP and OR directories, and archive in the (Results) directory.
   
Procedure:
   
Part I:   Create sij.data file for appropriate set of second order tensors 
Part II:  ESTABlish appropriate ASCII Color Table in the Estab_ct directory
Part III: Generate ellipsoid surfaces in various ToPology (TP) directories
Part IV:  Generate ellipsoid surfaces in various ORientation (OR) directories
Part V:   View results in the (Results) directory
Part VI:  Archive results in the (../Archive_Results) directory
Part VII: Purge results and repeat procedure for a different Sij tensors

MOTIVATION: The various script files and directories shown above are organized 
to be used as a NPIB module.  A new color table "scheme" was developed so that 
the user can create a color table that is appropriate and can be used 
CONSISTENTLY in the generation of Sij ellipsoid  surface results. These results 
are summarized, analyzed, and interpreted using a standard Web browser at 
Results/Sij_results.html.  This scheme was developed and documented in the 
scheme and Estab_ct directories. Particular attention was devoted to
evaluating a variety of different glyph surface image types that would prove
to be the most useful in analyzing and interpreting Sij 3D ellipsoid surface 
topologies.  The final goal here is to implement this procedure into an 
interactive Web based NPIB module for the students in various ESM classes, 

Throughout this description the "user" refers to either the student or a 
researcher where either can investigate a collection of second order stress
tensor topologies.  The intent here is consistent with the idea behind 
developing a useful set of tools for combined research and curriculum 
developement, http://www.jwave.sv.vt.edu/crcd.  Hence the ultimate goal is 
to organize and create content that can be used either for distance learning 
or collaborative research.
  
Procedure Description:
  
Part I: Create sij.data file for set of second order stress tensors 
  
 Various sij.data files have been created and archived in the 
 Archive_data directory.  To start the calculations the user must choose 
 an appropriate data file from this directory, renamed this data file 
 to sij.data, and move it into the "$BASE" directory.  The user can
 also create an new data file by following the same format. To facilitate
 the use of this procedure by others not familiar with working with
 with scripts in a UNIX shell this data file will be converted to a NPIB 
 Java-Web based form file which will allow the user to just enter the 
 necessary data and submit results for calculation, see more about NPIB 
 at http://www.jwave.vt.edu/npib/npib.html 
  
Part II: ESTABlish appropriate ASCII Color Table, Estab_ct directory
  
 An ASCII color table is created in the Estab_ct directory, renamed to 
 ct.ascii, and moved into the "$BASE" directory.  The procedure for 
 creating an appropriate ASCII color table is documented in detail in 
 the Estab_ct directory.
  
Part III: Generate glyph-surfaces in various topology (TP) directories
  
 Images are generated from the "$BASE" directory using the PV-Wave 
 procedure file do_all.pro. The PV-Wave procedure file sit.pro prompts 
 the user for an image type number. The number 8 is recommended.  The 
 user can choose from twelve different image types which are visually 
 summarized and compared in the JPG image which can be accessed at
 ~rkriz/Projects/Sij_glyphs/npib_Sij_glyphs/Results/Archive/imagetypes.jpg  
   
 Generation of various 3D glyph-surfaces is accomplished in three steps:
  
 Step I: do_tp_jpg.pro generates JPG images in two different directories: 
      
    - DIRECTORY TP/surf121: 3D surface topology data files are created.
      These topology data files are used to create Mercator maps that 
      represent equilibrium and are mapped onto to 3D ellipsoid surfaces
      the represent the principal stress starte.
   
 Step II: do_tp_"type"_anim.pro generates animated GIF images of rotating 
          glyph surfaces in the TP/surf121/MM/m_"type"_anim directories,
          There are four Sij glyph "types": PNS, HWY, Reynolds, Quadric

 Step III: do_tp_"type"_vrml1.pro and do_tp_"type"_vrml2.pro creates 3D
           scenegraphs that can be viewed either with VRML1.0 Web browser 
           plugins or VRML2.0 Web browser plugins.  The VRML1.0 scenegraph 
           is also saved as an Inventor1.0 file format which can be loaded
           into a fully immersive virtual environment of a CAVE using
           the diversifly application http://diverse.sourceforge.net

Part IV: Generate glyph surfaces in various ORientation (OR) directories
   
 VRML1, VRML2, and Inventor files are generated from the "$BASE" directory
 using the PV-Wave procedure file do_all.pro that calls three other files
 do_or_boxaxes.pro, do_or_glyphs_vrml1.pro, and do_or_glyphs_vrml2.pro. 

Part V: View results in the Results directory
  
 Various ellipsoid surface topologies previously generated are moved into 
 the Results directory and organized into a single Web viewable HTML file
 sij_results.html for analysis and interpretation.  
  
Part VI: Archive results in the Archive_Results directory
  
 Wave surfaces images in Results directory are tarred (*.tar) and archived
 in the Archive_Results directory.

Part VII: Purge all results
