  abstract  = {We present the first algorithm for constructing 3D vector fields based
              on their topological skeleton. The skeleton itself is modeled by
              interactively moving a number of control polygons. Then a piecewise
              linear vector field is automatically constructed which has the same
              topological skeleton as modeled before. This approach is based on
              a complete segmentation of the areas around critical points into
              sectors of different flow behavior. Based on this, we present the
              first approach to visualizing higher order critical points of 3D
              vector fields.},
