Doug’s MATLAB Video Tutorials

Basics: Volume visualization: 1/9 Defining scalar and vector fields

This short video is the first of a series of nine that talks about volume visualization. Patrick gave this talk internally to help technical support engineers understand capabilities of MATLAB for volume visualization.

I like his slow, clear, methodical presentation with great visualizations. It is the first time I have deeply understood some of the volume visualization techniques we have. Sorry, Dr. H, but I really did not understand Div, Grad, Curl and all of that until Patrick explained it later in this series!

1 of 9 Definitions for scalar and vector fields.

    Doug, you are such a tease…can’t wait to see the rest of this series…great topic!

    Good to hear that people are interested in this. It is quite a commitment of blog space to do this. Should I increase the pace during a series?

    -Thanks!

    Nice topic!

    I’m sure I will learn something useful in this series!

    Certainly! If the videos are already composed, may I suggest posting them to the FEx? Your readers will surely still come for the insightful comments.

    Good stuff Doug, I’d be in favor of a speedier series if there are 9 total, mainly so I don’t forget where the earlier videos left off.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
