Hands are the most important tool to interact with virtual environments, and they should be
available to perform the most critical tasks. For example, a surgeon in VR should keep …

Immersive analytics (IA) is a new term referring to the use of immersive technologies for data
analysis. Yet such applications are not new, and numerous contributions have been made in …

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 …

Particle tracing has been established as a powerful visualization technique to show the
dynamics of 3D flows. Particle tracing in 3D, however, quickly overextends the viewer due to …

Interactive visualization has been an active subfield of scientific visualization for a longtime,
in which user interfaces have traditionally followed the WIMP (Window, Icon, Menu, Pointer) …

One recommended strategy for the analysis of CFD-data is the interactive exploration within
virtual environments. Common visualization systems are unable to process large data sets …

Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs) support the heart in its vital task of maintaining circulation
in the human body when the heart alone is not able to maintain a sufficient flow rate due to …

Pipeline architectures provide a versatile and efficient mechanism for constructing
visualizations, and they have been implemented in numerous libraries and applications over …

Streak surfaces are among the most important features to support 3D unsteady flow
exploration, but they are also among the computationally most demanding. Furthermore, to …

In pure CFD visualization tools, some flow features are hard to visualize such as the
properties of a local flow probe. Haptic rendering techniques offer an intuitive understanding …
