On Animating 2D Velocity Fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
A velocity field, even one that represents a steady state flow, implies a dynamical system. Animated velocity fields is an important tool in understanding such complex phenomena. This paper looks at a number of techniques that animate velocity fields and propose two new alternatives. These are texture advection and streamline cycling. The common theme among these techniques is the use of advection on some texture to generate a realistic animation of the velocity field. Texture synthesis and selection for these methods are presented. Strengths and weaknesses of the techniques are also discussed in conjunctions with several examples.

متن کاملColor-Table Animation of Fast Oriented Line Integral Convolution for Vector Field Visualization
Fast Oriented Line Integral Convolution (FROLIC), which is a variant of LIC, illustrates 2D vector fields by approximating a streamlet by a set of disks with varying intensity. FROLIC does not only show the direction of the flow but also its orientation. This paper presents color-table animation of FROLIC images. Various color-table compositions are discussed in detail. When animating FROLIC im...
متن کاملReal-time Simulation of Herds Moving Over Terrain
We present a method for animating herds of animals to follow terrain surfaces in real time. This method involves making modifications to Reynold’s boids algorithm. The modifications use local properties of the terrain and thus have low complexity. They produce naturally behaving herds that follow the terrain, swerving around hills and attempting to reduce energy expenditure. The terrain-followi...

Wall-jet flow is an important flow field in hydraulic engineering, and its applications include flow from the bottom outlet of dams and sluice gates. In this paper, the plane turbulent wall jet in shallow tailwater is simulated by solving the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations using the standard turbulence closure model. This study aims to explore the ability of a time splitting method ...
متن کاملOn Analytic Solutions of (1+3)D Relativistic Ideal Hydrodynamic Equations
In this paper, we find various analytic (1+3)D solutions to relativistic ideal hydrodynamic equations based on embedding of known low-dimensional scaling solutions. We first study a class of flows with 2D Hubble Embedding, for which a single ordinary differential equation for the remaining velocity field can be derived. Using this equation, all solutions with transverse 2D Hubble embedding and ...
