Depth image based rendering techniques for multiview applications have been recently introduced for efficient view generation at arbitrary camera positions. Encoding rate control has thus to consider both texture and depth data. Due to different structures ...
Background. Previous experimental studies have been conducted to evaluate the biomechanical effects of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction; but no consensus has been reached on the preferred method of reconstruction. Methods. The 3D finite element m ...
A computational method for multiscale modeling of plasticity is presented wherein each dislocation is treated as either an atomistic or continuum entity within a single computational framework. The method divides space into atomistic and continuum regions ...
The vascular wall exhibits nonlinear anisotropic mechanical properties. The identification of a strain energy function (SEF) is the preferred method to describe its complex nonlinear elastic properties. Earlier constituent-based SEF models, where elastin i ...
Most recent findings in robot-assisted therapy suggest that the therapy is more successful if the patient actively participates to the movement (“assistance-as-needed”). In the present contribution, we propose a novel approach for designing highly flexible ...
The paper presents a new method for the automatic monitoring of bridges deformations. Based on the use of electronic high precision inclinometers, this method permits to accurately reconstruct the deflected shape of the bridge and to follow its long-term e ...

A method is proposed of correcting the design of countercurrent sepn. columns for the impact of axial-dispersion effects. After computing the required no. of transfer units (NTU) employing conventional procedures based on the plug-flow assumption, the meth ...
The management of IP networks and systems is currently based on the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and the SNMP management architecture. This poses a number of problems. Some are related to the efficiency, scalability, latency, and expressivenes ...
