Scalar Field Math

Functionality

This node generates a Scalar Field by executing one of supported mathematical operations on the Scalar Fields provided as inputs.

Inputs

This node has the following inputs:

• FieldA. The first scalar field. The input is mandatory when available.

• FieldB. The second scalar field. The input is mandatory when available.

  

Parameters

This node has the following parameter:

• Operation. This defines the mathematical operation to perform. The available operations are:

  • Add. Add two scalar fields.

  • Sub. Subtract one scalar field from another.

  • Multiply. Multiply two scalar fields.

  • Minimum. Create a scalar field, the value of which is calculated as minimal of values of two scalar fields at the same point.

  • Maximum. Create a scalar field, the value of which is calculated as maximal of values of two scalar fields at the same point.

  • Average. Arithmetic mean (average) of two scalar fields - (A + B)/2.

  • Negate. Negate the scalar field values.

Outputs

The node has the following output:

• FieldC. The resulting scalar field.
