Numerical Relativity Exhibitions

These are WWW exhibits based on the NCSA Relativity Group's work and on General Relativity. Here you will find exhibits about calculations, computers, virtual reality, the history of science, and much more.


Spacetime Wrinkles
an extensive exhibit on Einstein and numerical relativity.

Spacetime Splashes
Information about SuperComputing 93 Demos. These demos show the Workbench, an interactive tool for solving and visualizing Einstein Equations.

More on the SC 93 CAVE demo
Applications in the Cave, NCSA's virtual reality room.

VROOM Spacetime Splashes
SIGGRAPH 94 CAVE demo. This exhibit includes a still and an animation of the SIGGRAPH 94 demo in the Cave.

Schwarzschild Worm Hole
An embedding diagram of a single black hole obtained from a numerical solution of the Einstein equations that describe the behavior of the gravitational field.

Visualizing Black Hole Spacetimes
Stills from a movie of a distorted black hole evolution.

Interaction of a Gravitational Wave with a Black Hole
A simulation of the interaction of a gravitational wave and a black hole.

Model of an Expanding (Closed) Universe
This is a visualization of a 2-dimensional model of the 3-dimensional universe.
