Deformation Energy for Size Functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Size functions are functions from the real plane to the natural numbers useful for describing shapes of objects. They allow to translate the problem of comparing shapes to the problem of comparing functions, that is a much simpler task. In order to perform the comparison between size functions we present a method to measure the energy necessary to deform size functions into each other. Minimizing such an energy allows for a measure of the similarity between shapes. Some experimental results concerning the comparison of free hand-drawn sketches are shown.

Investigation of Pre-buckling Stress Effect on Buckling Load Determination of Finite Rectangular Plates with Circular Cutout
This paper investigates the buckling of finite isotropic rectangular plates with circular cutout under uniaxial and biaxial loading. The complex potential method is used to calculate the pre-buckling stress distribution around the cutout in the plate with finite dimensions. To satisfy the in-plane boundary conditions, the generalized complex-potential functions are introduced and a new method b...

متن کاملFree Vibration Analysis of Size-Dependent, Functionally Graded, Rectangular Nano/Micro-plates based on Modified Nonlinear Couple Stress Shear Deformation Plate Theories
In the present study, a vibration analysis of functionally graded rectangular nano-/microplates was considered based on modified nonlinear coupled stress exponential and trigonometric shear deformation plate theories. Modified coupled stress theory is a non-classical continuum mechanics theory. In this theory, a material-length scale parameter is applied to account for the effect of nanostructu...
متن کاملSuperplasticity of a fine-grained Mg–1.5 wt% Gd alloy after severe plastic deformation
The strain rate sensitivity (SRS) of Mg–1.5 wt% Gd processed by conventional extrusion and 2 passes of simple shear extrusion (SSE) was investigated by shear punch testing. Shear punch tests were conducted at initial shear strain rates in the range of 0.003–0.3 s-1 and at temperatures in the range of 573–773 K. A fine-grained microstructure with an average grain size of about 2.5 µm, obtained a...
