abstract     : In this article, we address three different topics in scientific visualization. The first part introduces optimization strategies that determine the visibility of line and surface geometry, such that a balance between occlusion avoidance and preservation of context is found. The second part proposes new methods for the visualization of time-dependent fluid flows, including the accurate depiction of Lagrangian scalar fields, as well as a new category of vortex identification methods. The third part introduces finite-sized particles as new application area for flow visualization, covering geometry-based methods, particle separation, topology, vortex corelines, and the determination of the origin of finite-sized particles.
