The Visualization of 3D Stress and Stain Tensor Fields
Second-order tensors are a fundamental entity in engineering, physical sciences and biomechanics. Examples are stresses and strains in solids and velocity gradients in fluid flows. The visualization of tensor fields improves the understanding and interpretation of tensor data and is therefore of paramount importance for the scientist. This paper gives an introduction to the definition and visua...
متن کامل17 Topological Methods for Flow Visualization
Numerical simulations provide scientists and engineers with an increasing amount of vector and tensor data. The visualization of these large multivariate datasets is therefore a challenging task. Topological methods efficiently extract the structure of the corresponding fields to come up with an accurate and synthetic depiction of the underlying flow. This approach takes its roots and inspirati...
متن کاملDielectrophoretic effect of nonuniform electric fields on the protoplast cell
In recent years, dielectrophoresis based microfluidics systems have been used to manipulate colloids, inert particles, and biological microparticles, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, cancer cells, bacteria, yeast, microorganisms, proteins, DNA, etc. In the current study the governing electric potential equations have been solved in the presence of cell for the purpose of ...
متن کاملVisualizing Second-Order Tensor Fields
ecause scientists don't have proper tensor-display techB niques, they now visualize many physical problems incompletely in terms of vector or scalar data. Scientists could undoubtedly get new insights into these problems if they had a methodology for visualizing 3D second-order tensor fields. We present hyperstreamlines as a way of visualizing these data. Second-order tensor fields are fundamen...
