Detecting regions with undesirable curvature
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of Brzier curves or Brzier surfaces as "faired" interpolation (approximation) curves or surfaces occasionally yields inflection points or changes of sign of the Gaussian curvature which are undesirable in some applications, notably the fairing of ship lines (surfaces) or the fairing of car body surfaces. In the following investigation we use a polarity to detect such undesirable points, then these points can be removed by the use of the well known Brzier techniques.

Genomic Analysis of Sequence-Dependent DNA Curvature in Leishmania
Leishmania major is a flagellated protozoan parasite of medical importance. Like other members of the Trypanosomatidae family, it possesses unique mechanisms of gene expression such as constitutive polycistronic transcription of directional gene clusters, gene amplification, mRNA trans-splicing, and extensive editing of mitochondrial transcripts. The molecular signals underlying most of these p...
متن کاملCurvature Method to Detect Location and Depth of a Plastic Zone in Frame Members during an Earthquake
This paper presents a new method for detecting beam and frame damage caused by an earthquake. Despite comprehensive investigations on structural damage detection, which mostly have focused on damage detection of elastic structures, the present study deals with nonlinear damage detection in structures. Furthermore, in the proposed method, only measurements of the damaged structures during an ear...
متن کاملEnvironmental Assessment and Congestion for DMUs With Undesirable Outputs
In recent years, the assessment of environmental performance has been received considerable attention by environmental policy indicators and decision makers. In this regard, this paper applies data envelopment analysis (DEA) as a management tool for evaluating the environmental performance of the firms and uses the extended bounded adjusted measure (extended BAM) for including undesirable outpu...
متن کاملAutomatic detection of musicians' ancillary gestures based on video analysis
A novel approach for the detection of ancillary gestures produced by clarinetists during musical performances is presented in this paper. Ancillary gestures, also known as non-obvious or accompanist gestures are produced spontaneously by musicians during their performances and do not have meaning in sound, but they help in the creation of music. The proposed approach consists in detecting, segm...
متن کاملA Russell Measure for Modeling Environmental Performance
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has been long employed as a popular methodology to evaluate the performance of various production activities with multiple inputs and outputs. However, an important issue is that the production process in the real world inevitably generates undesirable outputs (like wastes and pollutants) along with desirable outputs. Therefore, the undesirable outputs should be ...
