Sonification of Three-Dimensional Vector Fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe and analyze a new technique for sonification of three-dimensional vector fields. This technique allows the user to use commodity hardware and widely available 3D sound interfaces to map vectors in a listener’s local neighborhood into smooth wind-like sound (aerodynamic sound). The four types of information provided by this technique are flow direction, flow velocity, flow vorticity and local flow patterns. The result is a system that helps the user achieve an intuitive understanding of the data set by using their auditory sense.

Complementary Visualization and Sonification of Multi-Dimensional Data
Interpretation of multi-dimensional complex data usually involves extracting the relationship between several variables. This is typically done with an interactive visual system. High resolution volumetric data imaging, color, animation, and multiple views are effective tools for data interpretation. Sound can provide an additional and complementary perceptual channel. This presentation focuses...
متن کاملHarmonicity and Minimality of Vector Fields on Lorentzian Lie Groups
We consider four-dimensional lie groups equipped with left-invariant Lorentzian Einstein metrics, and determine the harmonicity properties of vector fields on these spaces. In some cases, all these vector fields are critical points for the energy functional restricted to vector fields. We also classify vector fields defining harmonic maps, and calculate explicitly the energy of t...
متن کاملParallel Computing of Particle Trajectory Sonification to Enable Real-time Interactivity
In this paper, we revisit, explore and extend the Particle Trajectory Sonification (PTS) model, which supports cluster analysis of high-dimensional data by probing a model space with virtual particles which are ‘gravitationally’ attracted to a mode of the dataset’s potential function. The particles’ kinetic energy progression of as function of time adds directly to a signal which constitutes th...
متن کاملThe Local Heat Exploration Model for Interactive Sonification
This paper presents a new sonification model for the exploration of topographically ordered high-dimensional data (multi-parameter maps, volume data) where each data item consists of a position and feature vector. The sonification model implements a common metaphor from thermodynamics that heat can be interpreted as stochastic motion of ’molecules’. The latter are determined by the data under e...
متن کاملThree-dimensional numerical simulation of temperature and flow fields in a Czochralski growth of germanium
For a Czochralski growth of Ge crystal, thermal fields have been analysed numerically using the three-dimensional finite volume method (FLUENT package). The arrangement used in a real Czochralski crystal growth lab included a graphite crucible, heat shield, heating device, thermal insulation and chamber including two gas outlets. We have considered two cases for calculations, which are configur...
