Abstract

The rendering of tensor glyphs is a progressive process of visualizing the vector space both in fluid dynamics and the latest medical scanning. Nowadays, the rendering accuracy is ensured by numerical methods based on interpolation of tensor functions. The tensor glyph functions to visualize significant properties of the vector space. Not all these properties are visualized at all times. The number of properties and their unambiguity depend on the method chosen. This work presents a direct analytical expression covering rank two tensors in a plane. Unlike the methods used so far, this method is accurate and unambiguous one for tensor visualization. The method was applied to the simplest tensor type, which presented an advantage for the method’s analytical approach. The analytical approach to the planar case is significant also because it provides instruction on how to expand analytical calculations to cover higher spatial dimensions. In this way, numerical methods for tensor rendering can be replaced with an accurate analytical method.
