Mai El-Shehaly placed first in a university-wide interdisciplinary research competition. Her poster was titled Real-tme Procesisng and Visualization of Multi-volume Time-variant Datasets. Mai said, “The presented research focused on developing visualization and interaction techniques aimed at addressing some of the challenges that experts are faced with when analyzing the spatio-temporal behavior of physical phenomena given a number of datasets obtained from different sources. The goal was to allow the user to construct a mental model representing the phenomena in question to increase their understanding of the spatiotemporal behavior of features of interest and verify the constructed model by real world measurements.” To read more about the Interdisciplinary Research Honor Society at VT visit http://www.idrsociety.org/category/news/. Dr. Denis Gracanin is Mai’s faculty advisor.
