Simulating fluids based on vortex filaments is highly attractive for the creation of special
effects because it gives artists full control over the simulation using familiar tools like curve …

This thesis presents a modern formulation of rigid body mechanics in spaces of constant
curvature. It consists of a theoretical and a practical part. It develops the necessary theory …

This paper presents a system for immersive visualization of the Classical Non-Euclidean
spaces using real-time ray tracing. It exploits the capabilities of the latest generation of …

In the context of scientific data analysis, we propose to compare a remote collaborative
manipulation technique with a single user manipulation technique. The manipulation task …

This paper describes the design concepts, the making of and some applications of the first
Estonian Virtual Reality Environment. Using hardware only slightly above the threshold of …

We show that the motion of rigid bodies under water can be realistically simulated by
replacing the usual inertia tensor and scalar mass by the so-called Kirchhoff tensor. This …

In this work, we propose a novel ray tracing model for immersive visualization of
Riemannian manifolds. To do this we introduce Riemannian ray tracing, a generalization of …

We describe the first image-space ray-tracing algorithm to generate interior views of flat or
hyperbolic 3-manifolds, orbifolds, and similar polyhedral complexes. The complexity of our …

We describe a visualization system in which the two classical noneuclidean spaces–elliptic
and hyperbolic–are integrated as equal citizens along with euclidean space. Such software …

This document provides a brief overview of the capabilities of SpaceEx and the concepts
behind it. We present how hybrid systems are modeled in SpaceEx using hybrid automata …
