The US Army Corps of Engineers has several projects involved with maintaining the nations waterways, everything from hydroelectric power to fisheries.  A project by Dr. Andy Goodwin statistically analyzes fish behaviour through common thoroughfares and dams, trying to find better models for routing them around dangerous areas.    The TecPlot blog discusses how he’s integrated TecPlog360 into his CFD systems.

After examining a number of options, he selected Tecplot 360 to do this work for him. This was a good fit because Tecplot 360 already reads the most popular CFD file formats, and has an extensible architecture that allows Dr. Goodwin’s solver to interact with any data Tecplot 360 can read. And I was the lucky Tecplot developer selected to do the interfacing work.

You can see examples of his work on his youTube Page.

Disclaimer:  The lab where I work was involved in the creation of several of the non-TecPlot visualizations in that YouTube feed.
