gprmax matlab

please somebody ..
could you give me some examples how to operate this software...
i have done it but having some trouble in 3D visualization in matlab (using GPRMAX3D)...
thanks...
 

hi,

i've been working just a little with the 3D version of GprMax. For the time being I've used Matlab's "patch" function to visualize the model I've drawn. The results are viewed thanks to the Fields.ez.

Here's what my Matlab program looks like:
Code:
name = 'NameOfYourSimulatedFile.geo';

[mesh,ID,header,media] = gprmax3g(name);
[chem,titre,ext]=fileparts(name);

figure
p1=patch(isosurface(mesh,1));
set(p1,'facecolor',[1,0,0],'edgecolor','none');
p2=patch(isosurface(mesh,2));
set(p2,'facecolor',[0,1,0],'edgecolor','none');

[Header, Fields] = gprmax([name(1:end-3),'out']);
radargram(:,:) = Fields.ez(:,1,:);
t=1e9*Fields.t;
Y = Header.dy * Header.rx: Header.dy * Header.RxStepY :Header.dy * Header.rx + (Header.dy * Header.RxStepY * (Header.NSteps-1));

figure;
imagesc(Y,t,radargram);
title('Ez');
ylabel('Time (ns)');
xlabel('Scan length (m)');

figure;
[x,y]=meshgrid(Y,t);
surf(x,y,radargram,'EdgeColor','none')
view([1,0,0]);
title('Ez' );
ylabel('Time (m)');
xlabel('Scan length (m)');
 

Hi!
I am trying to use GPRMax 3D as indicated in previous post but i obtained the following error:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
??? Warning: Struct field assignment overwrites a value with class "double".
See MATLAB 7.0.4 Release Notes, Assigning Nonstructure Variables As Structures Displays Warning for details.

> In gprmax3g at 139
In GPRMAX_matlab at 13
??? Undefined function or variable 'prova'.

Error in ==> GPRMAX_matlab at 22
[Header, Fields] = gprmax([prova(1:end-3),'out']);
>> ----------------------------------------------------------------

the name of my file is "prova".

Can someone help me?

Thank you!

could you give me some examples how to display Three slices through a volume of data.
i have done it but having some trouble in 3D visualization in matlab (using GPRMAX3D)... this is my code, but display the 3D image is incorrect.
this is my code:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

filename = 'ex3';
geo = '.geo';
sca = '.sca';
geofile = [filename geo];
scafile = [filename sca];

%% Apelle GPR simulation

% *** Select output/results directory
% directory_out = 'C:\GPRModels\Outputs';

% *** Select exe and input directories
% dos 'C:\GprMax\Bin\GPRMax3D C:\GprModels\Inputs\ex4.in'


[mesh,ID,header,media] = gprmax3g(geofile);
[chem,titre,ext]=fileparts(geofile);
modeltitle = header.title;
dx = header.dx; % cell size in x direction - horizontal for GprMax dy = header.dy; % cell size in y direction - vertical for GprMax
nx = header.nx;
dy = header.dy;
ny = header.ny;
x = nx*dx;
y = ny*dy;

% Scan data
[Header,Fields]=gprmax(scafile);
modeltitle = Header.title;
Nsteps = Header.NSteps; % no. of scans in the file
iterations = Header.iterations; % no. of iterations (in the given time window)
dt = Header.dt; % time for each iteration
timew = Header.removed; % time window (s)
ex = reshape(Fields.ex, iterations, Nsteps);
ey = reshape(Fields.ey, iterations, Nsteps);
ez = reshape(Fields.ez, iterations, Nsteps); % reshape scan data into matrix

I want to display a 3D image as described in the manual : Three slices through a volume of data(page 53)



Pleas help me :-(
thanks...

Hello could you please help me to run the same codes as examples,my matlab 2014 is saying:

"Undefined function 'gprmax3g' for input arguments of type 'char'.

Error in tryend (line 3)
[mesh,ID,header,media] = gprmax3g('name');" could you please support me on how you proceeded for running those codes?

Thanks.
