Results from 2.5D and 3D studies of the onset development tearing instability are presented, using high fidelity resistive MHD simulations. A limited parameter study strength reconnecting field (or shear angle) was performed. An initially simple 1D equilibrium used, consisting a modified force-free current sheet, with periodic boundary conditions in all directions. In cases, linear non-linear e...

This paper addresses the problem of reconstructing surface models of indoor scenes from sparse 3D scene structure captured from N camera views. Sparse 3D measurements of real scenes are readily estimated from image sequences using structure-from-motion techniques. Currently there is no general method for reconstruction of 3D models of arbitrary scenes from sparse data. We previously introduced ...

This paper introduces a novel concept for digitizing the 3D paper structure, based on a fully automated microtomy process and light microscopy. The concept offers both, a high spatial resolution and a large sample size. Image analysis algorithms for creation of an accurate and detailed digital representation of the 3D paper structure are described. This digital data set is analyzed, to derive c...

In single-particle reconstruction, a 3D structure is reconstructed from a large number of randomly oriented 2D projections, using techniques related to computed tomography. Unlike in computed tomography, however, the orientations of the projections must be estimated at the same time as the 3D structure, and hence the reconstruction process can be error-prone, converging to an incorrect local op...

New 3D video representations enable new modalities of interaction, such as haptic interaction, with 2D and 3D video for truly immersive media applications. Haptic interaction with video includes haptic structure and haptic motion for new immersive experiences. It is possible to compute haptic structure signals from 3D scene geometry or depth information. This paper introduces the concept of hap...
