概要	Computer visualization has become a crucial component of data analysis, and so-called Modular Visualization Environments (MVEs) have been used in a variety of analytical disciplines. Even so, scientists and engineers who are not visualization experts have some difficulty in selecting and applying visualization techniques that best suit their purposes. To address this problem, we have extended our visualization ontology to develop a visualization system that helps the users select and execute suitable visualization techniques. In this paper, we attempt to further extend our ontology towards a particularly important domain of visualization: structural analysis. The resulting system uses a refined Wehrend Matrix to represent users' goals and requirements, and to search the knowledge-base for appropriate visualization workflows. The system also allows the users to browse successful examples maintained in the case repository, thereby supporting "design by example". Three practical structural analysis examples are presented to illustrate the usefulness of our prototype system.
