Graphics Modeling and Visualization in Science and Technology: in Science and Technology

by Martin Gïbel (Editor), Jose C. Teixeira (Editor)

Overview

The book reports on a workshop on Graphics Modeling and
Visualization in scientific, engineering and technical applications. Visualization is known as the key technology to control massive data sets and to achieve insight into these tera bytes of data. Graphics Modeling is the enabling technology for advanced interaction. The papers report on applied visualization or basic research in modeling and visualization. Applications - using commercial or experimental visualization tools - cover the following fields: engineering and design, environmental research,
material science, computational sciences, fluid dynamics and algorithmic visualization.
