Reconstructing 3-D Block Size Distributions from 2-D Measurements on Sections
نویسنده
چکیده
Measurement of particles, whether grains on a microscope slide or image of a muck or stock pile, is two dimensional. Principles of geometric probability and stereology can be used to reconstruct or unfold a three dimensional size distribution. This analytical solution or unfolding function can be calibrated with an empirical calibration function.

Relationships between Block Size Distributions and Topographic Roughness: an Experimental Approach Using Lidar Scanning and Variogram Analysis
Introduction: Block size distributions on rocky planetary surfaces contain information regarding both the lithologic material properties and the geologic processes responsible for creating the deposit [1-3]. For example, studies of block size distributions have been used to assess landing site geology [4] and to determine processes occurring on active lava flow surfaces [1,2]. However, determin...
متن کاملComparison of grain size distributions in a Ni-based superalloy in three and two dimensions using the Saltykov method
A three-dimensional (3-D) dataset of Ni-based superalloy Inconel 100 is used as a validation case for using stereology to estimate 3-D grain sizes from 2-D data. 2-D sections of the IN100 dataset are extracted, from which 3-D size distributions are estimated through the use of the Saltykov method and compared to the true 3-D statistics. The Saltykov method corrected the upper tail disparity bet...

Background: An effective method for management of large and bulky malignant tumors. This treatment modality is also known as Specially Fractionated Radiation Therapy (SFRT). In this treatment technique a grid block converted the open radiation field into a series of pencil beams. Dosimetric characteristics of an external beam grid radiation field have been investigated using experimental and Mo...

متن کاملCombining and Steganography of 3-D Face Textures
One of the serious issues in communication between people is hiding information from the others, and the best way for this, is to deceive them. Since nowadays face images are mostly used in three dimensional format, in this paper we are going to steganography 3-D face images and detecting which by curious people will be impossible. As in detecting face only, its texture is important, we separat...
