A snakuscule (a minuscule snake) is the simplest active contour that we were able to design while keeping the quintessence of traditional snakes: an energy term governed by the data, and a regularization term. Our construction is an area-based snake, as op ...
Today, a world without roads, cars, motorcycles and bicycles is almost unimaginable. The entire road infrastructure with its diversity of transport concepts now has a prominent − almost dominant – position in our society. The question is therefore not so m ...
This research project presents a corporation of architects, mathematicians and computer scientists. The team researches new methods for the efficient realization of complex architectural shapes. The aim is to develop computer-aided solutions which optimize ...
This chapter describes ModelLib, a web-based platform for collecting models from different domains (e.g., electrical, mechanical, or electromechanical) and levels of abstractions (e.g., system, circuit, or device level). Use cases for this tool are present ...
Cascade stilling basins system, consisting of a series of falls and stilling basins, may be a good alternative energy dissipation system for high head dams. Traditional design of such a system is based on a trial and error procedure by which the number and ...
The following paper provides developers, designers and researchers of location-aware applications with a descriptive framework of applications that convey Mutual Location-Awareness. These applications rely on ubiquitous computing systems to inform people o ...
Energy dissipation systems such as single fall-stilling basin and single chute bucket have been used in the design and construction of large dams. In the case of high head structures, however, due to the high flow velocity, these systems suffer from proble ...
Reducing the complexity of large systems described as complex networks is key to understanding them and a crucial issue is to know which properties of the initial system are preserved in the reduced one. Here we use random walks to design a coarse graining ...
Most of the life cycle cost of a product can be pre-determined by the end of the conceptual design phase, which begins with the establishment of a function structure by decomposing an overall function into a set of sub-functions. However, today's products ...
The road to a successful introduction of vehicular communications has to pass through the analysis of potential security threats and the design of a robust security architecture able to cope with these threats. In this paper, we undertake this challenge. I ...
