Visualization of 2D Wave Propagation by Huygens' Principle

In Proceedings of Eurographics Symposium on Parallel Graphics and Visualization (EGPGV), pp. 19–28, 2015.

Abstract

We present a novel technique to visualize wave propagation in 2D scalar fields. Direct visualization of wave fronts is susceptible to visual clutter and interpretation difficulties due to space-time interference and global influence. To avoid this, we employ Huygens' pr... [More ...]
