To cope with a variety of clinical applications, research in medical image processing has led to a large spectrum of segmentation techniques that extract anatomical structures from volumetric data acquired with 3D imaging modalities. Despite continuing adv ...
In recent years, freeform shapes are gaining more and more popularity in architecture. Such shapes are often challenging to manufacture, and have motivated an active research field called architectural geometry. In this thesis, we investigate patterns of s ...
We present a dynamic laser beam shaper than can generate smooth flat top and gaussian intensity profiles. It consists of a 100% fill factor membrane, supported by beams or posts, that deforms in a shape similar to a concave linear or 2D microlens array. Th ...
We present results on various post processing techniques to create complex 3-dimensional nanostructures with enhanced capabilities. The starting point for all architectures is a self aligned nanopillar with surrounding circular rim in PMMA. This particular ...
Many sources of errors exist in the manufacturing process of complex shapes. Some approximations occur at each step from the design geometry to the machined part. The aim of the paper is to present a method to evaluate the effect of high-speed and high dyn ...
We present a theoretical framework for the generation and scattering of second-harmonic and sum-frequency light from the surface of particles of arbitrary shape in the limit of low index of refraction contrast. For homogeneous and isotropic surfaces, light ...
Cy-Mag3De is a magnetic climbing inspection robot with advanced mobility. It is based on an innovative, award-winning and patented magnetic design. Its mobility is further enhanced thanks to a novel active tail. The robot has a cylindrical shape of 80 mm i ...
We present a description of sum frequency scattering experiments to probe the interfacial vibrational spectrum of nanoscopic oil droplets dispersed in water. SF scattering measurements as a function of optical path length, infrared (IR) pulse energy and pa ...
We address the problem of building a manifold in order to represent a set of geometrically transformed images by selecting a good common sparse approximation of them with parametric atoms. We propose a greedy method to construct a representative pattern su ...
This paper addresses the fundamental problem of computing stable medial representations of 3D shapes. We propose a spatially adaptive classification of geometric features that yields a robust algorithm for generating medial representations at different lev ...
