Write MCNP Input, Write Sabrina Input, and Write Moritz Input buttons
show a standard Windows file selection dialog for choosing the
filename for the output. The last directory used is saved in
the bodybuilder.ini file. Suffixes .mcn and .sab
are expected
for MCNP and Sabrina/Moritz files, respectively.
The Sabrina and Moritz files is meant to be used with Sabrina and
Moritz, not
with MCNP. It includes only the geometry portion of the MCNP
input file. It does not include material definitions, tally cards,
and other MCNP data cards. It does include the cell colors and
transparency states. To enable their color and transparency to
be easily set by material, the Undifferentiated Tissue and Skin
are assigned distinct material IDs (5 and 6) in the Sabrina file. (In
the MCNP input, they share the same soft material composition
with the soft organs-everything besides Skeleton and Lungs.)
Files sent to Moritz include comments in the MCNP input with
commands to enhance the 3D display of the model. Most are similar to
one of
c moritz alt 99 1 -2
3c moritz st c
99 wireThe ‘c moritz’
string precedes a Moritz command. Alt
specifies an alternate cell description that is used only for the 3D
display. These descriptions often remove surfaces introduced to prevent
small overlaps or exclusion of organs in container cells. The ST command
specifies a wireframe style for a cell. The commands are also included
in MCNP and Sabrina input files when Include Moritz Hints
is checked in the File menu.
The MCNP input file does contain the material definitions, along
with tally cards as chosen, a MODE
card, and several typical data
cards in the form of comments. To use the latter, delete the
C in column 1 and supply
the desired value.
