Inhaltsangabe

ThisbookattemptstocapturesomeoftheexcitementofaninspiringDagstuhl SeminarinJanuary2007. Theauthorsreportonrecentresearchresultsaswell as opining on future directions for the analysis and visualization of tensor ?elds. Topics range from applications of the analysis of tensor ?elds to purer researchintotheirmathematical andanalytical properties. Oneofthegoalsof thisseminarwastobringtogetherresearchersfromalongthatpure-to-applied disciplinary axis with the hope of fostering new collaborations and research. This book, we hope, will continue to further that goal in a broader context. Providence, Rhode Island, USA David H.
