چکیده

In this paper we study the problem of shape from silhouette outlines (SFO) using a novel adaptive dandelion model. SFO reconstructs a 3D model using only the outmost silhouette contours and produces a solid called the ‘‘bounding hull’’. The dandelion model is composed of a pencil of organized line segments emitted from a common point which samples the bounding hull surface in regularly distributed orientations with the ending points serving as sampling points. The orientations and the topology of the line segments are derived from a geodesic sphere. The lengths of the line segments are computed by cutting rays in 2D with silhouette outlines. Based on the subdivision structure of the geodesic sphere, the sampling resolution can be refined adaptively until the desired precision is achieved. Finally a manifold mesh is extracted from the dandelion model. 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Adaptive Tunable Vibration Absorber using Shape Memory Alloy

This study presents a new approach to control the nonlinear dynamics of an adaptive absorber using shape memory alloy (SMA) element. Shape memory alloys are classified as smart materials that can remember their original shape after deformation. Stress and temperature-induced phase transformations are two typical behaviors of shape memory alloys. Changing the stiffness associated with phase tran...

Shape from silhouette using topology-adaptive mesh deformation

We present a computationally efficient and robust shape from silhouette method based on topologyadaptive mesh deformation, which can produce accurate, smooth, and topologically consistent 3D mesh models of complex real objects. The deformation scheme is based on the conventional snake model coupled with local mesh transform operations that control the resolution and uniformity of the deformable...

Outline Shape Retrieval Using Textual Descriptors and Geometric Features

Content_based image retrieval is a promising approach because of its automatic indexing, recognition and retrieval. This paper is a contribution in the field of the content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). Objects are represented by their outlines shapes (silhouettes) and described following the XLWDOS Textual Description (Larabi et al., 2003). Textual Descriptors are sensitive to noise. The autho...

Airfoil Shape Optimization with Adaptive Mutation Genetic Algorithm

An efficient method for scattering Genetic Algorithm (GA) individuals in the design space is proposed to accelerate airfoil shape optimization. The method used here is based on the variation of the mutation rate for each gene of the chromosomes by taking feedback from the current population. An adaptive method for airfoil shape parameterization is also applied and its impact on the optimum desi...
