Description

Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) is a numerical multilevel technique, associated with a particular hierarchical data structure. The scheme locally achieves very high spatial and temporal resolutions and has been successfully applied in many areas of numerical analysis. This project aims at the development of visualization tools for this kind of data structure to allow scientists to interactively explore their simulation data. Further the application of AMR data structures to accelerate the rendering of large datasets is examined.
Further information is available in the detailed project description.
