Introduction One of the most popular topics I have written about in this blog is a method I call “Tableau buckets”. I have been very surprised by the number of people that have found this concept to be useful. For this reason, I am going to extend this “bucket” concept to Alteryx workflows.

Introduction I recently wondered whether I could use Tableau to graphically process results from finite-element models. This post just begins to answer that question.
Introduction For more than 20 years, I did a lot of groundwater flow and transport numerical modeling. This work prepared me well for my current career in business analytics, but life sure would have been easier if I had Tableau Desktop back then!
