The approach will first detect the border of the given object in the field by underlying function fitting and the second gradient derivative calculating. On marking the border cells, they will be rendered in polygons to fit the surface of the object. The implementation, as well as some experiments, is given in the paper.展开更多

Based on the decomposition of the tensor which describes the changes of the velocity it provides a teclmique for visualizing local flow. A deformed cube, a cube transformed by a tensor in a local coordinate frame, shows the local stretch, shear and rigid body rotation of the local flow corresponding to the decomposed component of the tensor. Users can interactively view the local deformation or any component of the changes.The animation of the deformed cube moving along a streamline achieves a more global impression of the flow field. This method is intended as a complement to global visualization methods.展开更多
