4. Manufacturing Isovolumes

Manufacturing Isovolumes

Isosurfaces are an effective way to visualize the distribution of scalar data values in a volume. Attaching the isovalue to an interactive input, such as a slider bar or a dial, provides further insight as one watches the isosurfaces change shape and meld into each other. Unfortunately, such interaction is fleeting. Once one has passed on to a new isovalue transition, it is difficult to remembe...

Implicit Integral Surfaces

We present an implicit method for globally computing all four classic types of integral surfaces – stream, path, streak, and time surfaces – in 3D time-dependent vector fields. Our novel formulation is based on the representation of a time surface as implicit isosurface of a 3D scalar function advected by the flow field. The evolution of a time surface is then given as an isovolume in 4D space-...

The IMS MISSION Architecture For Distributed Manufacturing Simulation

This paper presents an overview of a neutral reference architecture for integrating distributed manufacturing simulation systems with each other, with other manufacturing software applications, and with manufacturing data repositories. Other manufacturing software applications include, but are not limited to, systems used to: 1) design products, 2) specify processes, 3) engineer manufacturing s...
