4. Running the programs¶
This section provides describes how to run all executables pertaining to the E3D package.
Note
All executable files, input files, output filenames and files specified within input files can be specified in the following manner:
as just the filename if contained within the current working directory (Example: filename.txt)
as a file path relative to the current working directory (Example: sub_dir\filename.txt)
as the full path (Example: C:\Users\Name\Tests\filename.txt)
Executable files should not be renamed. However, input file names can be specified by the user if desired.
The main executable programs within the E3D version 1 program library are:
create_octree_mesh_e3d: creates an OcTree mesh based on the survey geometry
e3d: used to forward model or invert FEM data
The following Octree utility programs may also be helpful:
blk3cell: creates conductivity models on the underlying tensor mesh
3DModel2Octree: interpolates models from tensor to OcTree meshes
create_weight_file: creates the weighting on each cell in the model
interface_weights: creates weights on the faces of cells
