On Ridges and Valleys
Ridges and valleys are earth’s relief structures. They can have an imaging counterpart provided we model a digital image as a landscape by considering grey level values as height. These two dual entities have received comparatively little attention from the computer vision community with regard to others like edges or corners. In this paper we first propose a taxonomy or classification of the s...
متن کاملDynamical instability produces transform faults at mid-ocean ridges.
Transform faults at mid-ocean ridges--one of the most striking, yet enigmatic features of terrestrial plate tectonics--are considered to be the inherited product of preexisting fault structures. Ridge offsets along these faults therefore should remain constant with time. Here, numerical models suggest that transform faults are actively developing and result from dynamical instability of constru...
متن کاملRedeeming Valleys and Ridges for Line-Drawing
This paper presents a new method of line drawing based on the hypothesis that artists draw the lines that decompose the object into parts, and the lines that help convey the shapes of the parts. But they draw these lines differently depending on the viewpoint. Contours are the most obvious part-decomposing lines. Valley lines, which typically delimit convex parts, are also part-decomposing line...
متن کاملDetection of power oscillation and simultaneous faults using Clark transform
Distance relays are widely used to protect transmission lines. Sometimes, in these lines due to the occurrence of the oscillation of the power, the impedance calculated in the distance relay enters into its functional zones and leads to the cutting off of the lines. This issue can cause global power outages. Accordingly, in this paper, a Clark-based method for detecting the oscillation of power...
متن کاملInteraction between Transform Faults and Rift Systems: A Combined Field and Experimental Approach
We present a detailed field structural survey of the area of interaction between the active NW-striking transform Husavik-Flatey Fault (HFF) and the N–S Theystareykir Fissure Swarm (TFS), in North Iceland, integrated by analog scaled models. Field data contribute to a better understanding of how transform faults work, at a much higher detail than classical marine geophysical studies. Analog exp...
