Mounting evidence suggests that fluid advection can effectively be studied by considering
special material surfaces, which are referred to here as Lagrangian coherent structures …

The recently introduced notion of Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent to characterize Coherent
Lagrangian Structures provides a powerful framework for the visualization and analysis of …

The depiction of a time-dependent flow in a way that effectively sup ports the structural
analysis of its salient patterns is still a challenging problem for flow visualization research …

Flow fields are usually visualized relative to a global observer, ie, a single frame of
reference. However, often no global frame can depict all flow features equally well. Likewise …

We introduce a point-based algorithm for computing and rendering stream surfaces and
path surfaces of a 3D flow. The points are generated by particle tracing, and an even …

Computing and visualizing features in fluid flow often depends on the observer, or reference
frame, relative to which the input velocity field is given. A desired property of feature …

We propose a largely output-sensitive visualization method for 3D line integral convolution
(LIC) whose rendering speed is mainly independent of the data set size and mostly …

The volume of data generated by exascale simulations requires scalable tools for analysis
and visualization. Due to the relatively low I/O bandwidth of modern HPC systems, it is …

In this paper we present GPU-based techniques for the interactive visualization of large
unsteady 3D flow fields on uniform grids. We propose a novel dual-core approach to …

We introduce a novel flow visualization method called flow charts, which uses a texture atlas
approach for the visualization of flows defined over curved surfaces. In this scheme the …
