These images were created using SURFER. They have been used in exhibitions, for logos and other kind of purposes.
A collection of short animations created with the SURFER software can be found here.
Alpine glaciers have been shrinking for more than one century. This trend is expected to continue if the global warming progresses. Thanks to mathematical models, the future evolution of glaciers can be estimated.

Tsunamis are big oceanic waves that collide violently with the coast. Most often, tsunamis are created by earthquakes that produce a sudden change on the topography of the ocean seabed. This exhibit explains how tsunamis are modeled mathematically, and recreates simulations of historical catastrophes.

Most meshes are built with ad hoc C++ programs and/or using Blender. The scene is usually set up with Blender. Rendering is done with Luxrender for low resolution, and with Blender/Cycles for high resolution versions.
Hi-res pictures are attached as “source” files for the images, and a few supplementary high resolution pictures can be found in the Files section.
