StreakArrow

28 Nov 2008 (Updated 01 Dec 2008)

Creates curved vector fields or "tuft" lines to look like wind tunnel tuft flow visualization.

File Information
Description	H = STREAKARROW(X,Y,U,V,np,arrow) creates "curved" vectors, from 2D vector data U and V. All vectors have the same length. The magnitude of the vector is color coded. The arrays X and Y defines the coordinates for U and V. The variable np is a coefficient >0, changing the length of the vectors. np=1 corresponds to a whole meshgrid step. np>1 allows ovelaps like streamlines. The parameter arrow defines the type of plot: arrow=1 draws "curved" vectors arrow=0 draws circle markers with streaks like "tuft" in wind tunnel studies
MATLAB release	MATLAB 6.5 (R13)
