Close-up Photography Techniques Applied to Avian Embryonic Heart

Colour Photography as Applied to Medicine

I HERE can be no doubt that colour photographs are infinitely more valuable in the teaching of medicine than those in monochrome. This is made obvious by the increasing number of colour illustrations to be seen in the present-day medical textbooks and by the number of lantern slides in natural colour used by lecturers. There are many instances where colour photographs are essential to illustrat...

Aerial Photography Applied to Traffic Studies

IN T R O D U C T IO N Within the next decade, more than $30 billion will be spent at the federal, state and local levels for the construction of new roadways in the United States. Additional billions will be allocated for the operation and maintenance of existing facilities. Toward what end is this huge expenditure being made? Most highway officials would agree that it is to promote the efficie...

Nonlinear Optimal Control Techniques Applied to a Launch Vehicle Autopilot

This paper presents an application of the nonlinear optimal control techniques to the design of launch vehicle autopilots. The optimal control is given by the solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, which in this case cannot be solved explicity. A method based upon Successive Galerkin Approximation (SGA), is used to obtain an approximate optimal solution. Simulation results invo...

From Photography to *.graphies: Unconventional Imaging Techniques

High Dynamic Range Imaging as Applied to Paleontological Specimen Photography

Paleontological photography is a time-intensive process. Collections ranges, exhibit spaces, and outdoor field settings present challenging lighting regimes, many specimens have complex 3D shapes and are often fragile and difficult to move. Even in ideal conditions, the complexities of photography may result in inferior or inadequate coverage of specimens. Recently, software supporting High Dyn...
