We introduce a computational framework for discovering regular or repeated geometric structures in 3D shapes. We describe and classify possible regular structures and present an effective algorithm for detecting such repeated geometric patterns in point- o ...
The mathematical facet of modern crystallography is essentially based on analytical geometry, linear algebra as well as group theory. This study endeavours to approach the geometry and symmetry of crystals using the tools furnished by differential geometry ...
We propose here some basic approaches to direct processing of the 360o-images as we take into consideration the geometry of each one. Obviously, the geometry of each of these images is a consequence of the geometry of the sensor's mirror used. This tech ...
Conformal alpha shapes are a new filtration of the Delaunay triangulation of a finite set of points in &Rdbl;d. In contrast to (ordinary) alpha shapes the new filtration is parameterized by a local scale parameter instead of the global scale par ...
The economic growth inherent to our nowadays society pushes the industries toward better performances. In the mechatronic context, the increasing competition results in more and more stringent specifications. Thus, the multiple objectives to track become h ...
Two global gyrokinetic codes are benchmarked against each other by comparing simulation results in the case of ion temperature gradient driven turbulence, in the adiabatic electron response limit The two codes are the Eulerian code GENE and the Lagrangian ...
The color of materials such as paints, prints and glass may be characterized by a reflectance or a transmittance spectrum. Modeling their reflectance and their transmittance requires describing the interaction of light, from the light source to the observe ...
This research proposes new methods to generate rapidly complex folded plate structures that can be built with cross laminated timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels as well as the possibility to mill them by Computer Numerically Controll ...
The detection of higher modes of oscillation in atomic force microscopy can provide additional information on sample properties. However, the limited bandwidth of the photodiode in the beam deflection detection technique often limits the detectable frequen ...
New correlations predicting the local boiling heat transfer coefficients for vertical flow over a tube bundle have been developed. These correlations were developed for three different classes of tubes: smooth, low-finned, and Turbo-BII HP. These correlati ...
