Topological Features in Glyph-Based Corotation Visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter introduces a novel method for vortex detection in flow fields based on the corotation of line segments and glyph rendering. The corotation measure is defined as a point-symmetric scalar function on a sphere, suitable for direct representation in the form of a three-dimensional glyph. Appropriate placement of these glyphs in the domain of a flow field makes it possible to depict vortical features present in the flow. We demonstrate how topological analysis of this novel glyph-based representation of vortex features can reveal vortex characteristics that lie beyond the capabilities of visualization techniques that consider vortex direction and magnitude information only.

Survey of glyph-based visualization techniques for spatial multivariate medical data
In this survey article, we review glyph-based visualization techniques which have been exploited when visualizing spatial multivariate medical data. To classify these techniques, we derive a taxonomy of glyph properties that is based on classification concepts established in information visualization. By considering both the glyph visualization as well as the interaction techniques that are emp...

متن کاملExploring Defects in Nematic Liquid Crystals
Visualization of temporal and spatial tensor data is a challenging task due to the large amount of multi-dimensional data. In most of the visualization, scientists are interested in finding certain defects, anomalies, or correlations while exploring data. Hence, visualization requires efficient exploration and representation techniques. In order to use the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) as a bios...
متن کاملGlyph sorting: Interactive visualization for multi-dimensional data
Glyph-based visualization is an effective tool for depicting multivariate information. Since sorting is one of the most common analytical tasks performed on individual attributes of a multi-dimensional data set, this motivates the hypothesis that introducing glyph sorting would significantly enhance the usability of glyph-based visualization. In this paper, we present a glyph-based conceptual f...
متن کاملInteractive Image-Space Volume Visualization for Dynamic Particle Simulations
Particle-based simulation plays an important role in many different fields of science and engineering. Two common visualization approaches for the resulting data are glyph-based rendering and density sampling employing volume rendering. Fine geometric features are inherently captured by glyph-based methods. However, they might suffer from aliasing and the global structure is often poorly convey...
