The spacetime constraints paradigm is a valuable approach to this problem, but it suffers from high computational costs. Based on spacetime constraints, we propose a technique that controls the motion of deformable objects and offers an interactive response. This is achieved by a model reduction of the underlying variational problem, which combines dimension reduction, multipoint linearization, and decoupling of ODEs. After a preprocess, the cost for creating or editing a motion is reduced to solving a number of one-dimensional spacetime problems, whose solutions are the wiggly splines introduced by Kass and Anderson [2008]. We achieve interactive response using a new fast and robust numerical scheme for solving a set of one-dimensional problems based on an explicit representation of the wiggly splines.

We studied the hemodynamics in vitro to predict the hemodynamic changes near the aneurysm remnant caused by Hunterian ligation. A transparent model was fabricated based on three-dimensional rotational angiography imaging. Arteries were segmented and reconstructed. Pulsatile flow in the artery segments near the partially occluded (coiled) aneurysm was investigated by means of particle image velocimetry. The hemodynamic situation was investigated before and after Hunterian ligation of either the left or the right vertebral artery (LVA/RVA). Since post-ligation flow rate in the basilar artery was unknown, reduced and retained flow rates were simulated for both ligation options. Flow in the RVA and in the corresponding fenestra vessel is characterized by a vortex at the vertebrobasilar junction, whereas the LVA exhibits undisturbed laminar flow. Both options (RVA or LVA ligation) cause a significant flow reduction near the aneurysm remnant with a retained flow rate. The impact of RVA ligation is, however, significantly higher. This in vitro case study shows that flow reduction near the aneurysm remnant can be achieved by Hunterian ligation and that this effect depends largely on the selection of the ligated vessel. Thus the ability of the proposed in vitro pipe-line to improve hemodynamic impact of the proposed therapy was successfully proved.

It provides information about the accessibility of a biomolecule for a solvent molecule that is geometrically approximated by a sphere. During a period of almost four decades, the SES has served for many purposes – including visualization, analysis of molecular interactions and the study of cavities in molecular structures. However, if one is interested in the surface that is accessible to a molecule whose shape differs significantly from a sphere, a different concept is necessary. To address this problem, we generalize the definition of the SES by replacing the probe sphere with the full geometry of the ligand defined by the arrangement of its van der Waals spheres. We call the new surface ligand excluded surface (LES) and present an efficient, grid-based algorithm for its computation. Furthermore, we show that this algorithm can also be used to compute molecular cavities that could host the ligand molecule. We provide a detailed description of its implementation on CPU and GPU. Furthermore, we present a performance and convergence analysis and compare the LES for several molecules, using as ligands either water or small organic molecules.

Crucial for the detection of interesting temporal patterns are the time scale and the starting points one is looking at. Our approach makes no assumption about time scale and starting position of temporal patterns and consists of three main steps: an algorithm to compute statistical values for all possible time scales and starting positions of intervals, visual identification of potentially interesting patterns in a matrix visualization, and interactive exploration of detected patterns. We demonstrate the utility of this approach in two scientific scenarios and explain how it allowed scientists to gain new insight into the dynamics of environmental systems.

Thus, all these lines can be obtained by a simple integration of an autonomous ODE system. Our approach draws on the principal ideas of the recently introduced tangent curve description of streak lines. We provide the first description of time lines as tangent curves of a derived vector field, which could previously only be constructed in a geometric manner. Furthermore, our scheme gives rise to new types of curves. In particular, we introduce advected stream lines as a parameter-free variant of the time line metaphor. With our novel mathematical description of characteristic curves, a large number of feature extraction and analysis tools becomes available for all types of characteristic curves, which were previously only available for stream and path lines. We will highlight some of these possible applications including the computation of time line curvature fields and the extraction of cores of swirling advected stream lines.

Reference simulations with the established Consortium for Small-scale Modelling (COSMO) numerical weather prediction model and further standard LES codes are performed and used as a reference. This comprehensive evaluation approach covers multiple parameters and scales, focusing on boundary-layer variables, clouds and precipitation. The evaluation points to the need to work on parametrizations influencing the surface energy balance, and possibly on ice cloud microphysics. The central purpose for the development and application of ICON in the LES configuration is the use of simulation results to improve the understanding of moist processes, as well as their parametrization in climate models. The evaluation thus aims at building confidence in the model's ability to simulate small- to mesoscale variability in turbulence, clouds and precipitation. The results are encouraging: the high-resolution model matches the observed variability much better at small- to mesoscales than the coarser resolved reference model. In its highest grid resolution, the simulated turbulence profiles are realistic and column water vapour matches the observed temporal variability at short time-scales. Despite being somewhat too large and too frequent, small cumulus clouds are well represented in comparison with satellite data, as is the shape of the cloud size spectrum. Variability of cloud water matches the satellite observations much better in ICON than in the reference model. In this sense, it is concluded that the model is fit for the purpose of using its output for parametrization development, despite the potential to improve further some important aspects of processes that are also parametrized in the high-resolution model.

This report provides a comprehensive overview on techniques that have been developed in the fields of molecular graphics and visualization with a focus on applications in structural biology. The field heavily relies on computerized geometric and visual representations of three-dimensional, complex, large and time-varying molecular structures. The report presents a taxonomy that demonstrates which areas of molecular visualization have already been extensively investigated and where the field is currently heading. It discusses visualizations for molecular structures, strategies for efficient display regarding image quality and frame rate, covers different aspects of level of detail and reviews visualizations illustrating the dynamic aspects of molecular simulation data.

The minima of the acceleration magnitude, i.e. a superset of the acceleration zeros, are extracted and discriminated into vortices and saddle points --- based on the spectral properties of the velocity Jacobian. The extraction of topological features is performed with purely combinatorial algorithms from discrete computational topology. The feature points are prioritized with persistence, as a physically meaningful importance measure. These features are tracked in time with a robust algorithm for tracking features. Thus a space-time hierarchy of the minima is built and vortex merging events are detected. The acceleration feature extraction strategy is applied to three two-dimensional shear flows: (1) an incompressible periodic cylinder wake, (2) an incompressible planar mixing layer and (3) a weakly compressible planar jet. The vortex-like acceleration feature points are shown to be well aligned with acceleration zeros, maxima of the vorticity magnitude, minima of pressure field and minima of λ2.

Methods: Turbulent flow in a bileaflet mechanical heart valve was simulated using RANS-based (SST k-ω) flow solver using FLUENT 14.5. The calculated Reynolds shear stress (RSS) field is transformed into a set of divergence-free random vector fields representing turbulent velocity fluctuations using procedural noise functions. To consider the random path of the blood cells, instantaneous flow fields were computed for each time step by summation of RSS-based divergence-free random and mean velocity fields. Using those instantaneous flow fields, instantaneous pathlines and corresponding point-wise instantaneous shear stresses were calculated. For a comparison, averaged pathlines based on mean velocity field and respective viscous shear stresses together with RSS values were calculated. Finally, the blood damage index (hemolysis) was integrated along the averaged and instantaneous pathlines using a power law approach and then compared. Results: Using RSS in blood damage modeling without a correction factor overestimates damaging stress and thus the blood damage (hemolysis). Blood damage histograms based on both presented approaches differ. Conclusions: A novel approach to calculate blood damage without using RSS as a damaging parameter is established. The results of our numerical experiment support the hypothesis that the use of RSS as a damaging parameter should be avoided.
