3D Modeling of Subterranean Environments by Robotic Survey
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for autonomously collecting surveyquality data from underground spaces for the purposes of 3D modeling. This overview includes a systems-level description of the robotic tools, data acquisition process and data processing techniques that enable accurate 3D modeling of subterranean interiors. A performance evaluation and accuracy analysis between the capabilities of this robotic system and human surveying is also provided.

Procedural Modeling as an Analytical Tool for 3D Survey in Urban Design Assessment
This paper examines procedural modeling as a tool for 3D modeling creation. Procedural modeling historically has been used for 3D visualization of natural features, but with the release of the software CityEngine in 2008, the technology can easily be adopted also in problem domains dealing with urban environments. Then, we will examine and compare two types of modeling, traditional and proc...
متن کاملRobotic Introspection for Exploration and Mapping of Subterranean Environments
This thesis identifies operational uncertainty as a significant problem affecting reliable robot performance in real environments. Operational uncertainty represents ambiguity in a robot’s self-perceived state during the execution of a task. This ambiguity is introduced into a robotic system through events such as unanticipated environmental disturbances, failing hardware and software built upo...
متن کاملTopological Global Localization for Subterranean Voids
The need for reliable maps of subterranean spaces too hazardous for humans to occupy has motivated the development of robotic mapping tools. For such systems to be fully autonomous, they must be able to deal with all varieties of subterranean environments, including those containing loops. This paper presents an approach for an autonomous mobile robot to determine if the area currently being ex...

This paper deals with the development and modeling of cylindrical contact theories and also the simulation of contact forces to be applied in the manipulation of various biological micro/nanoparticles by means of the AFM. First, the simulation of contact forces in four environments has been carried out, which are the most commonly used fluid in biomanipulation. Then, the spherical and cy...
متن کاملModeling of Air Relative Humidity Effect on Adhesion Force in Manipulation of Nano-Particles and its Application in AFM
In this paper, the effect of air relative humidity and capillary force on contact geometry of surfaces based on JKR model by Atomic force microscopy was investigated in order to manipulate nano-particles. With transition from macro to nano-scale, the effect of surface forces becomes more significant in comparison with inertial force. Because contact mechanics models are based on surface energy ...
