RISAutomatic Detection of Tangential Discontinuities in Point Cloud Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A point cloud data set, a dense set of discrete coordinate points scanned or sampled from the surface of a 3D physical object or design model, is emerging as a new representation format for ...
Robust Initial Matching of Free-Form Objects Represented by Point Clouds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The problem of best matching two point cloud data sets or, mathematically, identifying the best rigid-body transformation matrix between them, arises in many application areas such as geometric ...
Forced Response of PZT Glide Heads1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies forced response of PZT glide heads through calibrated experiments and finite element analyses. The PZT glide heads consist of an Al2O3TiC slider and a PZT transducer. In the ...
Model Updating of Slope Stability Analysis Using 3D Conditional Random Fields
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In situ soil properties exhibit spatial variability, which is often described using a three-dimensional (3D) random field. With site investigations, soil properties at some specific locations are available. The corresponding ...
Optimum Design of Pendulum Tuned Mass Dampers Considering Control Performance Degradation from Damper Connection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Pendulum tuned mass dampers (PTMDs) are one of the most commonly used devices for high-rise structures to control large-amplitude vibrations due to dynamic excitations. In practice, the damper of PTMD usually connects the ...
Coordinated Airborne Studies in the Tropics (CAST)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he main field activities of the Coordinated Airborne Studies in the Tropics (CAST) campaign took place in the west Pacific during January?February 2014. The field campaign was based in Guam (13.5°N, 144.8°E), using the ...
