Being my supervisor, he has shown me the scientific way to interpret and solve problems. I thank the co-authors of all the papers and articles I worked on during my stay in Siegen: Dr. Robert Strzodka introduced me to particle level sets, and he gave me useful hints to adapt them for graphics hardware. I am very grateful to Prof. Dr. Weiskopf for accepting the co-advisorship of my PhD thesis and for helpful discussions related to the flow visualization aspects of my work. I would like to acknowledge the German Climate Computing Centre Hamburg for providing an interesting typhoon data set. Special thanks go to Michael Böttinger, who was our primary contact person. His knowledge of climate flow visualization aspects has been of great value. I also thank my colleagues, especially Marvin Lindner for his friendliness, his encouragement and for extensive discussions about every imaginable C++ language feature. Finally, the largest thanks belong to my parents, my brothers, my dear girlfriend, and my former schoolmates and fellow students, who all contributed to what I am now in their very own way
Acknowledgments
It is important to acknowledge key individuals, who without their enormous support, mentoring and help in my research work and study, wouldn’t have made this work possible. Firstly I would like to thank my supervisor, Prof. Dr.-Ing. A. Glasmachers, who over the years provided his professional guidance, numerous technical support and mentoring. I feel I have richly benefited from his expertise knowledge and advice, and enjoyed working together in his department. As well I would like to thank Prof. Dr.-Ing. H. Chaloupka for spending much time revising my work. I also take the opportunity to thank my work colleagues who played an invaluable part in their support in various ways over the years. Notably I appreciate the great support that Jutta Winter made in organizing business trips, breakfasts and events. Also many thanks to the following individuals for their contributions: M. Aliman, K. Behaimanot, S. Gencol, M. Kühn, A. Laue, E. Matz, W. Risse, D. Rozic and J. Schmackers. I want to thank the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) for partly funding this research project, reference number 02C1084 [1]. It was very enjoyable to work together with a team with people like A. Becke
