In computational mechanics and geometry analysis visualization is key. It is key to develop and test algorithms and iron out any bugs that may be present. However, for me, visualization is more than that, it is also a way to feel a sense of creativity and play while doing serious coding. Staying in a creative and playful mood I find is the best way to come up with novel and creative solutions to complex problems. Therefore, irrespective of the actual application I often still end up testing codes (for meshing for instance) on a sphere, torus, dinosaur, rabbit, and an elephant.
Below is an animated gallery of visualizations and images I developed as part of my research. Some are of the actual research at hand, some are test graphics used to debug the algorithms, some show spectacular bugs and errors which may also make for accidental but entertaining/beautiful computational "art".
