本文对场线可视化技术进行了研究。为了解决在许多科学应用中常见的大规模，复杂，密集的场线数据可视化的计算和感知问题，引入了一种新的基于纹理的场线表示，我们称之为自定向表面。这种可扩展的表示有利于硬件加速渲染和各种感知有效的技术的结合，从而直观地可视化和解释所研究的数据。从加速器建模和流体流动数据集从空气动力学建模获得的电磁数据集用于评估和演示的技术。
This paper presents a study of field line visualization techniques. To address both the computational and perceptual issues in visualizing large scale, complex, dense field line data commonly found in many scientific applications, a new texture-based field line representation which we call self-orienting surfaces is introduced This scalable representation facilitates hardware-accelerated rendering and incorporation of various perceptually-effective techniques, resulting in intuitive visualization and interpretation of the data under study. An electromagnetic data set obtained from accelerator modeling and a fluid flow data set from aerodynamics modeling are used for evaluation and demonstration of the techniques.
