12.1 Introduction
Flow visualization is an important topic in scientific visualization and has been the subject of active research for many years. Typically, data originates from numerical simulations, such as those of computational fluid dynamics, and needs to be analyzed by means of visualization to gain an understanding of the flow. With the rapid increase of computational power for simulations, the demand for more advanced visualization methods has grown. This chapter presents an overview of important and widely used approaches to flow visualization, along with references to more detailed descriptions in the ...
