streamribbon

Streamribbons — streamlines as twisted ribbons showing local rotation.

h = streamribbon(x, y, z, u, v, w, sx, sy, sz, ...)

Like streamtube but renders each streamline as a flat ribbon whose twist encodes local rotation (curl) of the vector field.

streamribbon(X, Y, Z, U, V, W, sx, sy, sz)
  • streamline — Streamlines through a 2D or 3D vector field.
  • streamtube — Streamtubes — streamlines rendered with a width that varies with divergence.
