Example cases
Listed below are some example and test cases. The motivation for these is to explore the capabilities of various analysis methods. In general, papers and articles focus on results which successfully back an author's objective. And, maybe, a little is given to that which did not work. This is understandable, since space is usually at a premium in a paper or article. However, a lot can be learned from that which did not work or was not favorable. I think this is a good forum for it. So it is my intent to present the good, the bad, and the ugly.
The plots in the following cases were created with either gnuplot (in conjunction with Gnuplot.py) or Paraview.
