Creating Evenly-Spaced Streamlines of Arbitrary Density

Abstract: Abstract. This paper presents a new evenly-spaced streamlines placement algorithm to visualize 2D steady flows. The main technical contribution of this work is to propose a single method to compute a wide variety of flow field images, ranging from texture-like to hand-drawing styles. Indeed the control of the density of the field is very easy since the user only needs to set the separating distance between adjacent streamlines, which is related to the overall density of the image. We show that our method produ… Show more

“…One means by which to focus on a particular subset, area of interest, or feature of a flow field is via a streamline seeding strategy. In general, three popular streamline seeding strategies are often used: (1) image-based seeding strategies such as that described by Turk and Banks [17] or the evenly spaced-streamline seeding strategy presented by Jobard and Lefer [7], (2) topological or feature-based, seeding strategies such as those presented by Verma et al [21] or Sanna et al [13], or (3) interactive seeding strategies using a streamline seeding rake used by Bryson and Levit [2] or Schultz et al [15]. Our approach falls into the third category-an interactive streamline seeding strategy.…”

“…Another class of methods aim at automatically placing seed points throughout the domain in order to achieve an even distribution of the corresponding streamlines [44][45][46][47][48]. Following this approach, Sachse et al devised a new streamline seeding technique, specifically designed for the visualization of the electrical current, that distributes streamlines in the volume based on the local value of the current density [49,50].…”

“…Much work has been done [2,7,14] for providing aesthetically pleasing streamlines through careful selection of seed points. The emphasis is generally on producing a visually uniform density of streamlines in the final image.…”
