Geometrical parameters extraction from discrete paths

چکیده
We present in this paper the advantages of using the model of Euclidean paths for the geometrical analysis of a discrete curve. The Euclidean paths are a semi-continuous representation of a discrete path providing a good approximation of the underlying real curve. We describe the use of this model to obtain accurate estimations of lenght, tangent orientation and curvature.

A new conforming mesh generator for three-dimensional discrete fracture networks
Nowadays, numerical modelings play a key role in analyzing hydraulic problems in fractured rock media. The discrete fracture network model is one of the most used numerical models to simulate the geometrical structure of a rock-mass. In such media, discontinuities are considered as discrete paths for fluid flow through the rock-mass while its matrix is assumed impermeable. There are two main pa...
متن کاملLiroo dam abutments leakage analysis using DFN-DEM hybrid method
The Liroo Dam is one of the largest concrete dams in the country under study. The objective is to investigate and estimate the amount of water leakage from joints and fractures in dam abutments using numerical method. Interconnected fractures are the main pathways of water flow into the abutments and control the rock hydraulic behavior. Considering the stochastic properties of the geometric par...
متن کاملGlobally-Optimal Anatomical Tree Extraction from 3D Medical Images Using Pictorial Structures and Minimal Paths
Extracting centerlines of anatomical trees (e.g., vasculature and airways) from 3D medical images is a crucial preliminary step for various medical applications. We propose an automatic tree extraction method that leverages prior knowledge of tree topology and geometry and ensures globally-optimal solutions. We define a pictorial structure with a corresponding cost function to detect tree bifur...
متن کاملDyck algebras, interval temporal logic and posets of intervals
We investigate a natural Heyting algebra structure on the set of Dyck paths of the same length. We provide a geometrical description of the operations of pseudocomplement and relative pseudocomplement, as well as of regular elements. We also find a logic-theoretic interpretation of such Heyting algebras, which we call Dyck algebras, by showing that they are the algebraic counterpart of a certai...
متن کامل3D Mesh Skeleton Extraction Using Topological and Geometrical Analyses
This paper describes a novel and unified approach for Reeb graph construction and simplification as well as constriction approximation on 3D polygonal meshes. The key idea of our algorithm is that discrete contours – curves carried by the edges of the mesh and approximating the continuous contours of a mapping function – encode both topological and geometrical shape characteristics. Firstly, me...
