Often the graphical representation of the data can be rotated and viewed from many different angles and perspectives, which further aids in processing the visual representation. Where previously thousands of lines of numbers existed, now an image clearly shows the structure of those underlying numbers. Visualizations done at ARCS range from simple 2D plotting of data to 3D animation of sequences of data. Earth-Moving Simulation Data were obtained by the Computational Mechanics Group directed by Prof. J.S. Chen at CCAD, using the Meshless Method which is very powerful for large deformation and adaptivity analysis. This visualization shows the shear band clearly and can be used to improve the design of shovels.
Different colors represent the damage parameters of soil.
The damage parameter is a criterion to describe the failure of soil. Lyapunov 3D Lyapunov chaotic phenomenon. A visualization of the Lyapunov formula to measure chaos. Visualization was created using Spyglass Transform, Spyglass View, Debabelizer, Paco Producer on Mac. Data were collected.
