Tino Weinkauf: Paper accepted at Eurographics 2012
The paper Advected Tangent Curves: A General Scheme for Characteristic Curves of Flow Fields of the research group of Tino Weinkauf has been accepted at EuroGraphics 2012. In this paper, the first general scheme to describe all four types of characteristic curves of flow fields – stream, path, streak, and time lines – as tangent curves of a derived vector field is presented. Thus, all these lines can be obtained by a simple integration of an autonomous ODE system. This is in particular interesting for time lines, since they could previously only be constructed in a geometric...
