Visualization of Fields and Applications in Engineering

Book excerpt: Driven by advances in computer technology, engineering analysis has developed rapidly and extensively in recent times; Visualization of Fields and Applications in Engineering presents the basic techniques for tensor field visualization and mapping of engineering data. Focusing on the fundamental aspects of post processing databases and applications outputs, the author explores existing theories and their integration in tensor field visualization and analysis. The subject covers fundamental theories through to integrated, multi-disciplinary technologies with practical applications in engineering, computer /general sciences. Visualization of Fields and Applications in Engineering is suitable for academic use and to serve as a source of reference. It will appeal to those who work in the engineering and science professions or in pursuit of academic training/ research. Offers a unique engineering approach to basic techniques for tensor field visualization and mapping Collates together material currently disseminated throughout the literature into one accessible point of reference Presents examples with applications beyond and across many disciplines.
