Abstract
Computer simulation and visualization techniques for automotive studies are reviewed through the history of computer-aided visualization techniques to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Journal of Visualization. Future direction of visualization study is also mentioned through the introduction of up-to-dated numerical visualizations.
