Symmetry in 3D Geometry: Extraction and Applications

The concept of symmetry has received significant attention in computer graphics and computer vision research in recent years. Numerous methods have been proposed to find, extract, encode and exploit geometric symmetries and high‐level structural informatio ...

Effects of an Asymmetric Chamber on the Beam Coupling Impedance

Carlo Zannini, Giovanni Rumolo

The wake function of an accelerator device appears to have a constant term if the geometry of the device is asymmetric or when the beam passes off axis in a symmetric geometry. Its contribution can be significant and has to be taken into account. In this p ...

Shape-Up: Shaping Discrete Geometry with Projections

Mark Pauly, Sofien Bouaziz, Yuliy Gennadievich Schwartzburg, Mario Moacir Deuss

We introduce a uniﬁed optimization framework for geometry processing based on shape constraints. These constraints preserve or prescribe the shape of subsets of the points of a geometric data set, such as polygons, one-ring cells, volume elements, or featu ...

Two-axis solar tracking accomplished through small lateral translations

High-concentration solar-power optics require precise two-axis tracking. The planar micro-optic solar concentrator uses a lenslet array over a planar waveguide with small reflective facets at the focal point of each lenslet to couple incident light into th ...

Modelling wind-driven rain on buildings in urbanized area using 3-D GIS and LiDAR datasets

Luca Rossi, François Golay, Sylvain Coutu, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Pauline Emery, Vera Wyrsch

This study investigated the distribution of the fraction of rainfall intercepted by the facades of buildings located in an urbanized area. We used the frequently used semi-empirical standard ISO-15927-3 to simulate Wind-Driven Rain on facades. The implemen ...

Offset And Drift Analysis Of The Hall Effect Sensors. The Geometrical Parameters Influence

Maher Kayal, Jean-Michel Sallese, Maria-Alexandra Paun

Several Hall sensor configurations have been integrated in CMOS 0.35 mu m technology and analyzed in terms of offset at room temperature and offset drift. We searched for the best geometry that would minimize the offset and its corresponding drift. The tar ...

Isogeometric Analysis and the Finite Cell method

Luca Dede'

The finite cell method (FCM) belongs to the class of immersed boundary methods, and combines the fictitious domain approach with high-order approximation, adaptive integration and weak imposition of unfitted Dirichlet boundary conditions. Its main idea con ...

Geometries and vibrational frequencies of small radicals: Performance of Coupled Cluster and more approximate methods

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Peter Rudolf Tentscher

We generated a new set of reference geometries of small radicals using experimental equilibrium structures, as well as a benchmark-quality coupled cluster additivity scheme including up to quadruples excitations (CCSDTQ). Using these geometries and a set o ...

Third-harmonic generation microscopy with Bessel beams: a numerical study

We study theoretically and numerically third-harmonic generation (THG) from model geometries (interfaces, slabs, periodic media) illuminated by Bessel beams produced by focusing an annular intensity profile. Bessel beams exhibit a phase and intensity distr ...

Geometry-Induced Rigidity in Nonspherical Pressurized Elastic Shells

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

We present results from an experimental investigation of the indentation of nonspherical pressurized elastic shells with a positive Gauss curvature. A predictive framework is proposed that rationalizes the dependence of the local rigidity of an indented sh ...
