The Whale's Tail Vase
The Whale's Tail Vase. This image simulates the pate-de-verre style glass sculpture, and illustrates computer graphics techniques to put fine detail on the surfaces of solids. Note the small whale's tails sticking out of the small circles on the surface

Flying Over Complex Terrain
Flying Over Complex Terrain. One of the primary challenges in aerial surveillance algorithms is to map a huge aerial image onto terrain and be able to "fly" over this terrain in real time. The above images of Washington State (note Mount Raini

Visualization of Flow about the Mirror of a BMW Sedan
The visualization of coplex flow systems is one of the most challenging research areas in the field of scientific visualization. The complexity of the flow about the BMW mirror can be seen through the use of transparent integral surfaces, surfaces that fo

The Stanford Bunny
The Stanford Bunny is one of the most frequently used models to display computer graphics methods. Here, fine detail, in the form of colored stars, have been places somewhat randomly over the surface of the bunny. Note that the stars actually have thick

Visualization of a Raleigh-Taylor Simulation of Mixing
A Raleigh-Taylor calculation simulates the turbulent mixing of a heavy fluid floating on top of a lighter fluid. The data set was define on a 1152 x 1152 x 1152 mesh of elements, over a billion elements in the calculation. Mark Miller, Hank Childs, Jo
