Nondestructive methods such as ultrasonic and magnetic resonance imaging systems have many advantages but still much expensive. And they do not give exact color information and may miss some details. If it is allowed to destruct a biological object to obtain interior and exterior informations, 3D image visualization model from a series of sliced sectional images gives more useful information with relatively low cost. In this paper, a PC based automatic 3D visualization system is presented. The system is composed of three modules. The first module is the handling and image acquisition module. The handling module feeds and slices a cylindrical shape paraffin, which holds a biological object inside the paraffin. And the paraffin is kept being solid by cooling while being handled. The image acquisition modulo captures the sectional image of the object merged into the paraffin consecutively. The second one is the system control and interface module, which controls actuators for feeding, slicing, and image capturing. And the last one is the image processing and visualization module, which processes a series of acquired sectional images and generates a 3D volumetric model. To verify the condition for the uniform slicing, normal directional forces of the cutting edge according to the various cutting angles were measured using a strain gauge and the amount of the sliced chips were weighed and analyzed. Once the 3D model was constructed on the computer, user could manipulate it with various transformation methods such as translation, rotation, and scaling including arbitrary sectional view.

단백질 상호작용 네트워크는 어떤 단백질들 간에 상호 작용 관계가 있는지를 네트워크 형태로 나타낸 것이며 단백질 상호작용을 발견하거나 분석하는 것은 생명 공학에서 중요한 연구분야이다. 본 논문에서는 방대한 단백질 상호작용 데이터를 유전자 온톨로지와 연계한 시각화를 통하여 효과적으로 직관을 얻을 수 있는 효율적인 단백질 상호작용 네트워크 분석시스템을 다룬다. 단백질 상호작용 네트워크는 데이터 양이 매우 방대하기 때문에 이를 효율적으로 분석하는 방법과 효과적인 시각화 기법이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 이를 위하여 동적이고 상호작용 가능한 그래프와 관심 노드와 그 주변 노드를 표시하며 점진적으로 탐색할 수 있는 컨텍스트 기반 탐색 기법을 도입하였다. 이 밖에도 특화된 기능으로써 단백질 상호작용과 유전자 온톨로지 간의 빠르고 자유로운 상호참조 기능과 최소 공통 조상을 사용한 유전자 온톨로지 분석 기능 등을 지원한다. 인터페이스 측면에서는 상호참조 기능을 효과적으로 사용하게 하기 위하여 유전자 온톨로지 그래프와 단백질 상호작용의 시각화 결과를 2차원 윈도우로 나란히 보여주는 인터페이스를 디자인 하였다.

Scale is formed when hard water is heated or cooled in heat transfer equipments such as heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators, cooling towers, boilers, and pipe walls. When the scale deposits in a heat exchanger surface, it is conventionally called fouling. The objective of the present study is to analyze the process of the fouling formation in a heat exchanger according to different types of water using visualization techniques. In order to experimentally investigate the formation of the fouling, this study built a lab-scaled heat exchanging system. Using the visualization techniques of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-Ray diffraction method, the three dimensional configurations of the fouling formation could be successfully obtained. Based on the experimental results, it was found that the configurations of the fouling formation were different when using tap water compared to river water.

Effect of visualization as a tool for the education of fluid dynamics is mainly discussed. Visualized images are much more understandable compared to the explanation using equations and texts. Several examples are presented to clarify this statement. Then, the software system for teaching fluid dynamics using the results by the numerical simulation is discussed. Two important issues on what is needed in the system are given. First, such systems should be capable of animating images. Second, such systems should be interactively used by students. Changing parameters, coefficients, equations, etc. themselves and watching the difference are important for them to understand the nature of physics underlying the equations. The teaching system with visualization is no doubt a good tool for introducing fluid dynamics.

Immersive virtual reality (VR) for the manufacturing planning helps to shorten the planning times as well as to improve the quality of planning results. However, VR equipment is expensive, both in terms of development efforts and device. Engineers also spend time to manually repair erroneous 3-D shape because of imperfect translation between 3-D engineering CAD model and VR system format. In this paper a method is proposed to link 3-D engineering CAD model to a multichannel visualization system with PC clusters. The multichannel visualization module enables distributed computing for PC clusters, which can reduce the cost of VR experience while offering high performance. Each PC in a cluster renders a particular viewpoint of a scene. Scenes are synchronized by reading parameters from the master scene control module and passing them to client scenes.

An experimental study was carried out in a cavity with upper channel and square heat surface by visualization equipment with Mach-Zehnder interferometer and laser apparatus. The visualization system consists of 2-dimensional sheet light by Argon-Ion Laser with cylindrical lens and flow picture recording system. Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system(CACTUS'2000). Obtained result showed various flow patterns. Severe unsteady flow fluctuation within the cavity are remarkable and sheared mixing layer phenomena are also found at the region where inlet flow is collided with the counter-clockwise rotating main primary vortex. Photographs of Mach-Zehnder are also compared in terms of constant heat flux.

A visualization study of shock formation of the supersonic jet nozzle using a Shadowgraph Method (SM) was carried out to investigate the effect of the longitudinal variation of coaxial pipe end tip position inside the supersonic nozzle. The experiment was performed for the Mach number range from 1.1 to 1.2 at nozzle exit. The well known shock cell structure was shown with the pipe end located deep inside the nozzle for the studied Mach number. With the pipe end approaches nozzle exit, it was found that the shock cell structure disappeared and turned into complex formation. In order to understand the mechanism of the shock structural change, computational simulation was carried out using the Navier-Stokes solver, FLUENT. Topological sketch was added with an aid of the visualization and the numerical simulation.

With the proliferation of digital music, public's interest in music and desire to sing well are increasing. This paper presents the implementation of a tone correction system through a visualization of comparison between music and humming data. For this we extract MIDI note from music and humming data and then design a matching engine using DTW algorithm which is for robust matching results against local timing variation and inaccurate tempo. This system is expected to correct the user's wrong tone by visualization and feedback from the result.

This paper focuses on human activities monitoring problem using onboard smartphone sensors as data generator. Monitoring such activities can be very important to detect anomalies and prevent disease from patients. Machine learning (ML) algorithms appear to be ideal approaches to use for processing data from smartphone to get sense of how to classify human activities. ML algorithms depend on quality, the quantity and even more important, the properties or features, that can be learnt from data. This paper proposes a mobile virtual reality visualization system that helps to view data representation in a very immersive way so that its quality and discriminative characteristics may be evaluated and improved. The proposed system comes as well with a handy data collecting application that can be accessed directly by the VR visualization part.
