On August 7th, Dr. Jankun-Kelly gave an invited talk at Brown University regarding the VisLab's liquid cyrstal visualization work. The abstract was:
In this talk, I discuss an ongoing project within the SimCenter at the HPC2 involving the visualization of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) dynamics. These systems have interesting physical properties that have not been adequately realized in current literature, and present a novel, glyph-based tensor visualization scheme to depict NLC dynamics—a Scientific Visualization example. However, this work is based upon an initial need to study the overall behavior of the NLC data over many timesteps, a problem that we have approached by using multidimensional data visualization—an Information Visualization example. My talk will show how these two very different approaches complement each other, and discuss other possible combinations for future consideration.
