Item Visual Analysis of Packing Process for 3D Container(The Eurographics Association, 2006) Yue, Y.; Middleton, M.; Liu, J.; Louise M. Lever and Mary McDerbyThe cutting and packing problem has been encountered in many industrial sectors, and become a research focus in operations research. Because of its nature, it is a commendable goal to visualise the process of cutting and packing for analysis and validation of the algorithms. This is even more desirable when working in a 3- dimensional environment. There have been some visualisation packages for which the working algorithms are hidden behind the screen. Furthermore, their effectiveness and flexibility are limited in some sense. This research presents a visual analysis tool for 3-dimensional container loading. A new loading and display algorithm is devised to suit requirements for container loading. Test results are given with recommendations for further effort.Item Visualisation of DNA - Does the Soul Have a Picture?(The Eurographics Association, 2006) Middleton, M.; Yue, Y.; Louise M. Lever and Mary McDerbyAlthough there has been a great deal of research on DNA, DNA visualisation has been long overlooked. This paper studies current techniques for 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional DNA visualisation and other relevant areas such as music and fractals. The paper then presents a new approach to displaying DNA data. An algorithm is designed and implemented with OpenGL to manipulate and display unique DNA strings. Unique colourings are applied to each part of the string. The output is customised and offers the option to animate the DNA string over time. The results are examined and future areas of work recommende
