    Using Visualisation Techniques and Molecular Dynamics to Study Atoms Diffusing in Glass
    (The Eurographics Association, 2011) Flikkema, E.; Zhou, Z.; Greaves, G. N.; R. Laramee and I. S. Lim
    In this poster, virtual reality and visualisation techniques are used to interpret the output of Molecular Dynamics simulations. In particular, mixtures of sodium-disilicate and potassium-silicate are studied. In such systems, the silicon and oxygen atoms form a disordered network. The alkali atoms are relatively mobile and will diffuse through channels in the silica network. This behaviour is rationalised by considering the concept of accessible free volume .

    Visualising Semantic Pathways in Document Collections
    (The Eurographics Association, 2011) Rowland, C.; Anderson, J.; R. Laramee and I. S. Lim
    In this paper we discuss our investigation of the potential uses of animation and visualisation techniques for exploring unstructured text-based data. We reflect upon a design methodology that is rooted in art and design practice and introduce a conceptual model for following "semantic pathways" through document collections. We also describe an implementation of a working model of an interactive visualisation. We see potential applications for our conceptual model in domains where there is a requirement to infer narrative from multiple sources of evidence such as in counter-terrorism and criminal investigations.
