The Graphical Display of Multi-Dimensional Aerodynamic Flow Field Data.

Abstract

The Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory has solved aerodynamic problems using sophisticated numerical techniques. Large volumes of data are created during the numerical solution of a problem, and the purpose of this project was to build a computer graphics software system to display this data. The system is controlled by using a command language which is interpreted by a table-driven parser. The primary output of the system is computer generated movies of the aerodynamic data. (Author)
