The purpose of this thesis is to develop numerical methods for optimization, control and shape design in computational fluid dynamics, more precisely in haemodynamics. The application studied is related with the shape optimization of an aorto-coronaric byp ...
Multi-level geometrical approaches in the study of aorto-coronaric bypass anastomoses configurations are discussed. The theory of optimal control based on adjoint formulation is applied in order to optimize the shape of the incoming branch of the bypass (t ...
Shapes incorporate geometry as well as semantics and can be defined in 2D, 3D or higher dimensions. Geometric models can be structured in such a way that they can provide a relevant framework to insert semantic information or view dependent information abo ...
For certain databases and classification tasks, analyzing images based on region features instead of image features results in more accurate classifications. We introduce eigenregions, which are geometrical features that encompass area, location and shape ...

The height and/or deformation of a surface of an object (10) defined in terms of x, y and z coordinates is measured by projecting a divergent beam of light 21) onto the surface to produce a periodic pattern of fringes (30. A CCD camera (40) views the surfa ...
The ideal stability of the internal kink mode is analysed for realistic tokamak geometry. Accurate numerical results demonstrate convergence with Bussac's toroidal solution (Bussac M N, Pellat R Edery D and Soule J L 1975 Phys. Rev. Lett. 35 1638) for inve ...
An Eu NMR study in the ferromagnetic phase of pure and Gd-doped EuO was performed. A complete description of the NMR line shape of pure EuO allowed for the influence of doping EuO with Gd impurities to be highlighted. The presence of a temperature-dependen ...
In this paper, we propose a variational model to segment an object belonging to a given scale space using the active contour method, a geometric shape prior and the Mumford-Shah functional. We define an energy functional composed by three complementary ter ...
This thesis is dedicated to the study of a new framework linking image segmentation and shape recognition processes in the image processing domain. Image segmentation process aims at separating an image into homogenous regions, the homogeneity measure depe ...
This paper introduces a two-steps adaptive generalized Hough transform (GHT) for the detection of non-analytic objects undergoing weak affine transformations in images. The first step of our algorithm coarsely locates the region of interest with a GHT for ...
