Flow visualization is a well established branch of scientific visualization and it currently
represents an invaluable resource to many fields, like automotive design, meteorology and …

With increasing computing power, it is possible to process more complex fluid simulations.
However, a gap between increasing data size and our ability to visualize them still remains …

In this paper, we survey illustrative rendering techniques for 3D surface models. We first
discuss the field of illustrative visualization in general and provide a new definition for this …

Blood flow and derived data are essential to investigate the initiation and progression of
cerebral aneurysms as well as their risk of rupture. An effective visual exploration of several …

Transport barriers are observed inhibitors of the spread of substances in flows. The
collection of such barriers offers a powerful geometric template that frames the main …

We explore the concept of abstraction as it is used in visualization, with the ultimate goal of
understanding and formally defining it. Researchers so far have used the concept of …

Approximate streamsurfaces of a three-dimensional velocity field have recently been
constructed as isosurfaces of the closest first integral of the velocity field. Such approximate …

Most 3D vector field visualization techniques suffer from the problem of visual clutter, and it
remains a challenging task to effectively convey both directional and structural information of …

Better understanding of hemodynamics conceivably leads to improved diagnosis and
prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, an elaborate analysis of the blood-flow in …

We present the visual analysis of a biologically inspired CFD simulation of the deformable
flapping wings of a dragonfly as it takes off and begins to maneuver, using vortex detection …
