SECTION : Vector Fields     

  
SUBJECT: A Fluid Flow with Two Sources  
 
DESCRIPTION:

The animation shows a flow field using animated textures. The direction of the velocity field is indicated by the correlation in the textures. When animated, the texture patterns move in the direction of the velocity field. This flow field has two sources located at different points and with different strengths. Near the either source, the texture patterns move away from that source.
