Review text

The author describes, in-depth, most of the important visualization and rendering techniques for scalar and vector fields defined over arbitrary grids. The grid types considered include structured, unstructured, rectilinear, curvilinear, tetrahedral, and prismatic grids. In the polation methods of all these grid types are described and related to the visualization process. Visualization techniques described in detail by the author include the computation of stream lines, streak lines, time lines, trajectories, and contours/isosurfaces. The author also provides a list of various parameters -- scalars, vectors, and tensors -- that are of interest in the context of the analysis of flow fields. Besides the description of the basic rendering paradigms, the author provides a discussion of visualization systems, virtual reality technology, and parallel visualization. The book is a very good resource for everyone dealing with the development of scientific visualization systems.
