Vortices are commonly understood as rotating motions in fluid flows. The analysis of vortices
plays an important role in numerous scientific applications, such as in engineering …

Flow visualization research has made rapid advances in recent years, especially in the area
of topology-based flow visualization. The ever increasing size of scientific data sets favors …

With ever increasing computing power, it is possible to process ever more complex fluid
simulations. However, a gap between data set sizes and our ability to visualize them …

This paper presents the state of the art in the area of topology‐based visualization. It
describes the process and results of an extensive annotation for generating a definition and …

The recently introduced notion of Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent to characterize Coherent
Lagrangian Structures provides a powerful framework for the visualization and analysis of …

Flow visualization is essentially a tool to answer domain experts' questions about flow fields
using rendered images. Static flow visualization approaches require domain experts to raise …

Acceleration is a fundamental quantity of flow fields that captures Galilean invariant
properties of particle motion. Considering the magnitude of this field, minima represent …

We present an approach for monitoring the positions of vector field singularities and related
structural changes in time-dependent datasets. The concept of singularity index is discussed …

Smoke rendering is a standard technique for flow visualization. Most approaches are based
on a volumetric, particle based, or image based representation of the smoke. This paper …

Feature extraction is an integral component of scientific visualization, and specifically in
situations in which features are difficult to formalize, deep learning has great potential to aid …
