Visualizing 3 dimensional array

194 次查看(过去 30 天)
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I've really been scratching my head on this one. Maybe explaining exactly what I'm trying to do might help. Basically I'm simulating the temperature of a car battery over time during the course of a race. Then I change a parameter of how much the battery is cooled, and reiterate the loop. So my array is ~ 6000x15x20.
The value in each index represents temperature. The rows represent the "i'th" timestep (say every 0.1 seconds). The columns represent the "j'th" lap. The k index represents the heat transfer coefficient. So for example, T(end,:,1) would represent the temperature at the end of each lap with a heat transfer coefficient of 1(or some multiple of the index).
What i'm trying to do is visualize the temperature vs. time of the battery for a range of heat transfer coefficients. I can't figure out how to actually format this data as vectors to make a 3d plot, or surface plot, or whatever makes sense for the data. I think maybe I could reformat the 2d array of each k index into a vector, but then i'm not sure where to go from there.
I would really appreciate any advice you guys could provide. Thanks!

Some of the basic ways to graph 4D data (3 independent variables plus one dependent variables) are:
  • slice()
  • isosurface()
  • volumeViewer() or similar voxel tools such "vol3d v2" from File Exchange
  • unpeel into multiple graphs
  • scatter3() in which the independent variables are the X Y Z, and the dependent variable is used to change either the object size or the object color

You could probably use volumeViewer,
to explore your data as a 3D volume, even though it was designed primarily with medical image data in mind.
