This paper presents a prediction of the millimeterwave multipath propagation characteristics in the typical urban environment. To analyze the propagation in an outdoor environment, the three dimensional model based on the geometrical optics and the uniform geometrical theory of diffraction is employed. Prediction by the three dimensional ray tracing method needs a detailed map, which records lo...

Multi-scale geometrical and topological analyses of point clouds can reveal their rich structures. Because conformal alpha shapes of point clouds are hierarchical shapes under different mesh resolution or internal alpha values, their surface curvature estimations are one of the multi-scale geometrical analyses. We present a robust method for computing surface curvature of conformal alpha shapes...

some physical properties such as geometrical, gravimetrical, frictional and aerodynamic features of seeds of desi chickpea and its splits were studied at a moisture content of 8.2 and 9.0% w., respectively from north-western of iran. geometrical and gravimetrical properties including the average length, width, thickness, the geometric mean of diameter, sphericity, 1000-seed weight, unit weight,...

In order to improve the validity and feasibility of the solid model of oral tissue, a new method is provided based on reverse engineering. Biomechanical simulation with FEM is an important technique for orthodontic force analysis and evaluation, as well as treatment design. As the base of FEM simulation, the solid geometrical models of oral tissue including tooth, Periodontal Ligament (PDL) and...

The modeling of plants is an active area of research in computer graphics and the geometrical modeling of veins is essential for obtaining plant images with a realistic appearance. The venation patterns determine the anisotropy of plant tissues, and affect the shadowing and masking of light incident on these tissues, hence the images. The current trend in the area of plant image generation is t...

The main goal of this paper is to explore latent topic analysis (LTA), in the context of quantum information retrieval. LTA is a valuable technique for document analysis and representation, which has been extensively used in information retrieval and machine learning. Different LTA techniques have been proposed, some based on geometrical modeling (such as latent semantic analysis, LSA) and othe...

For a lot of tasks concerning architecturally valuable buildings photogrammetric methods have shown to be best suited to obtain the geometrical basis. Using photogrammetry, a three-dimensional photo-realistical model ("Photo-Model") can be produced based on digital images taken from a building. A photo-model is a three-dimensional surface-model of a real object with texture information taken fr...

This paper presents a novel interface for 3D modeling in augmented reality, aiming at developing a form gradually in the early phase of a product design process. Previous VR/AR based modeling systems have focused largely on geometrical algorithms and system performance issues. From a designers’ perspective, this study analyzed the conventional form creating processes and developed a more intuit...
