جریان شبیه سازی و تجسم در یک سیستم اطلاعات حمل و نقل سه بعدی

We develop a three-dimensional (3D) shipping information system as a case study for the integration of a dynamic flow field and a 3D virtual geographical environment. A 2D hydrodynamic model is formulated to calculate the waterway depth and velocity distribution by using real-time hydrologic monitoring data. The parallel OpenMP computations take 4 min on a 20-core computer. The image-based flow visualization method is used to produce a 2D dynamic flow field on a curved surface, and the integration of dynamic flow fields with a 3D virtual geographical environment was achieved with the OpenSceneGraph rendering engine. Compared with a traditional 2D navigation map, the combination of a flow simulation and a visualization module can integrate flow velocity magnitude and distribution, and enhance ship navigation safety. This functionality will aid the display of integrated scientific information, and will have potential applications within 3D information systems in many domains.
