MICHELL TRUSSES AND LINES OF PRINCIPAL ACTION

Michell Trusses and Lines of Principal Action

We study the problem of Michell trusses when the system of applied equilibrated forces is a vector measure with compact support. We introduce a class of stress tensors which can be written as a superposition of rank-one tensors carried by curves (lines of principal strains). Optimality conditions are given for such families showing in particular that optimal stress tensors are carried by mutual...

an investigation about the relationship between insurance lines and economic growth; the case study of iran

مطالعات قبلی بازار بیمه را به صورت کلی در نظر می گرفتند اما در این مطالعه صنعت بیمه به عنوان متغیر مستفل به بیمه های زندگی و غیر زندگی شکسته شده و هم چنین بیمه های زندگی به رشته های مختلف بیمه ای که در بازار بیمه ایران سهم قابل توجهی دارند تقسیم میشود. با استفاده از روشهای اقتصاد سنجی داده های برای دوره های 48-89 از مراکز ملی داده جمع آوری شد سپس با تخمین مدل خود بازگشتی برداری همراه با تعدادی ...

Palmprint classification using principal lines

This paper proposes a novel algorithm for the automatic classification of low-resolution palmprints. First we use some directional line detectors to extract the principal lines according to their characteristics and their definitions in two steps: the potential beginnings (“line initials”) of the principal lines are extracted and then, on the basis of these line initials, a recursive process is...

Palmprint verification based on principal lines

In this paper, we propose a novel palmprint verification approach based on principal lines. In feature extraction stage, the modified finite Radon transform is proposed, which can extract principal lines effectively and efficiently even in the case that the palmprint images contain many long and strong wrinkles. In matching stage, a matching algorithm based on pixel-to-area comparison is devise...
