Latest developments in 3D analysis of geomaterials by Morpho+

چکیده
At the Centre for X-ray Tomography of the Ghent University (Belgium) (www.ugct.ugent.be) besides hardware development for high-resolution X-ray CT scanners, a lot of progress is being made in the field of 3D analysis of the scanned samples. Morpho+ is a flexible 3D analysis software which provides the necessary petrophysical parameters of the scanned samples in 3D. Although Morpho+ was originally designed to provide any kind of 3D parameter, it contains some specific features especially designed for the analysis of geomaterial properties like porosity, partial porosity, pore-size distribution, grain size, grain orientation and surface determination. Additionally, the results of the 3D analysis can be visualized which enables to understand and interpret the analysis results in a straightforward way. The complementarities between high-quality X-ray CT images and flexible 3D software are opening up new gateways in the study of geomaterials.

Three-dimensional (3D) imaging is a current challenge in biology and medicine for investigation of the smallest details of living systems, from cells to organisms, and with the expectation of micro to nanoscale resolution in real time. This is not a new objective, but rather a long quest toward excellence; to achieve such analytical performance, however, imaging technology must integrate the la...
متن کاملFast Intra Mode Decision for Depth Map coding in 3D-HEVC Standard
three dimensional- high efficiency video coding (3D-HEVC) is the expanded version of the latest video compression standard, namely high efficiency video coding (HEVC), which is used to compress 3D videos. 3D videos include texture video and depth map. Since the statistical characteristics of depth maps are different from those of texture videos, new tools have been added to the HEVC standard fo...
متن کاملRecent developments in Pseudomonas biocontrol mechanisms
Fluorescent pseudomonads are an effective source of biological control that have high adaptive power and able to produce a wonderful source of secondary metabolites. Antibiotics such as phenazines, diacetylphloroglucinol, and hydrogen cyanide are produced by certain taxonomic groups of the genus Pseudomonas and appear to be ancestral. These compounds often play a physiological role in the produ...
متن کاملEffect of Water Stress on Rapeseed Cultivars Using Morpho-Physiological Traits and Their Relations with ISSR Markers
Abstract To study the effect of water stress in rapeseed cultivars at the seedling stage, 10 rapeseed cultivars were evaluated at three irrigation levels [normal irrigation (control) and irrigation after depletion of 60 and 85% of available soil water]. Analysis of variance showed considerable variation among cultivars. Water stress reduced all of the studied morphological characteristics, espe...
متن کاملViscoplastic Modelling of Unsaturated Geomaterials
In this paper a rate dependent model for unsaturated geomaterials is presented. The formulation and numerical predictions are compared with available experimental results and discussed. The constitutive laws for the description of the time-dependent mechanical behaviour of saturated and unsaturated geomaterials generalize the isotach approach to the elastoplastic strain hardening based constitu...
