Center for Innovative Computer Applications

CICA is assisting the researchers in the Groundwater Flow Modeling Lab in the School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA). Our HPC expertise aided in the optimization of the linear system solver while our visualization experience is allowing the researchers to make effective presentations and verifications of their results.

Categories:	Simulation, Visualization, High-Performance Computing
Participants:	* Henk Haitjema, SPEA * Ken Luther, SPEA * Vic Kelson, SPEA * Eric Wernert, CICA - visualization * Don Berry, CICA - HPC consulting
Dates:	mid-1996 - (ongoing)
Resources:	* Iris Explorer visualization environment on SGI workstations, * custom Explorer modules for 3D picking feedback to the NAG advection module, * custom perl code for translating geometric elements
Also See:	* IU Groundwater Flow Modeling Laboratory's Web Pages * EPA's HPPC Geohydrologic Modeling Project

Productions

• An isosurface representing the phreatic surface (i.e. watertable) in the region of a well (white cylinder):
  

• Advection of a group of particles from one edge of the flow field towards the well. Note that no particles cross the watertable.
  

• Advection of a single particle with starting point selected interactively in the 3D visualization:
