The AnalysisTools plug-in is designed to import your analysis data into Rhino for visual inspection using false color analysis. The plug-in can be used to read in result files from various analysis software to aid in further refinement of the model. The resulting analysis mesh in Rhino can be used to see 3D falsecolor plots of velocity, pressure, solar radiance, etc…

1. Download the plug-in and unzip the archive.
2. Start Rhino.
3. Run PluginManager and press the Install button.
4. Browse to the location where you unzipped the archive.
5. Select the AnalysisTools.rhp file and press OK.

1. Import your analysis data into Rhino using the Open or import command. The AnalysisTools plug-in will import the following data types in the Open dialog box:
   1. Tecplot (structured) files (*.tp)
   2. Rhino Analysis Mesh files (*.ram)
2. View the analysis data by setting a viewport's display mode to either shaded or rendered.
3. To adjust the color range by using the AnalyzeMesh command.

• The results can be printed, put into page layouts or exported to other formats.

In addition to supporting the above file formats, the AnalysisTools plug-in also supports RhinoScript. Thus, if your analysis data is in some other file format, you can write a script, using RhinoScript, to read your files and create analysis meshes. The RhinoScript-callable methods are documented in the TestAnalysisTools.pdf file included with the download.
