Approximate Soft Shadows with an Image-Space Flood-Fill Algorithm

Most former soft shadow algorithms have either suffered from restricted self-shadowing capabilities, been too slow for interactive applications, or could only be used with a limited types of geometry. In this paper, we propose an efficient image-based approach for computing soft shadows. Our method is based on shadow mapping and provides the associated benefits. We use pixel-based visibility co...

Reliability of embankments on soft ground using constrained optimization

The paper deals with the stability of reinforced embankments on soft clay foundations, and presents alternative practical and versatile procedures for easy implementation of the traditionally tedious and iterative limit equilibrium methods of slices, including Bishop’s simplified method and Spencer’s method of slices. The proposed implementation procedures combine the use of constrained optimiz...

The Performance of Fly Ash as Fill Material for Embankment Model on Soft Soil

Fly ash is one of coal ashes resulted from power plants using coal to generate electricity. As a result of large utilization of coal, large volumes of coal ash produced as waste material. Direct use of these materials in construction projects, not only provides a promising solution to the disposal problem, but also as an alternative for structural fills material. High shear strength, low compre...
