چکیده

A tunable blob function is proposed which is computat ionally simple since it is a rational function of low degree. The blob function is dependent on a parameter d which can be used to control the blob function making it suitable for computer graphics applications such as implicit surface generation. The main properties of the blob function are descr ibed and graphed. When the parameter d is large, the blob function can be used to generate a three-dimensional spike by rotating it around the z-axis.

A Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Controllable Processing Times to Optimize Total Cost of Delay and Processing

In this paper, the flexible job shop scheduling problem with machine flexibility and controllable process times is studied. The main idea is that the processing times of operations may be controlled by consumptions of additional resources. The purpose of this paper to find the best trade-off between processing cost and delay cost in order to minimize the total costs. The proposed model, flexibl...

Conventional Voxel in Tomographic Reconstruction Based upon Plane-Integral Projections – Use It or Lose It?

Introduction: While the necessity of replacing voxels with blobs in conventional tomographic reconstruction based upon line-integrals is clear, it is not however well-investigated in plane- integral-based reconstruction. The problem is more challenging in convergent-plane projection reconstruction. In this work, we are aiming at utilizing blobs as alternative to voxels. <stron...

High Reynolds Viscous Flow Simulation Past the Elliptical Airfoil by Random Vortex Blob

In this paper, numerical simulation for a two-dimensional viscous and incompressible flow past the elliptical airfoil is presented by Random Vortex Blob (RVB). RVB is a numerical technique to solve the incompressible, two-dimensional and unsteady Navier-Stocks equations by converting them to rotational non-primitive formulations. In this method, the velocity vector at a certain point can be cal...
