Ray casting may be applied to the terrain rendering from DTMs (Digital Terrain Models). In this paper we propose a ray casting method which exploits exact vertical ray coherence. This method not only achieves a good performance, but also allows any set of viewing parameters. To analyze vertical ray coherence property, we define the terms: a ray plane which is perpendicular to the sea-level plan...

This paper is a step towards realizing T-duality and Hori formulae for loop spaces. Here, we prove winding [Formula: see text]-loop spaces, which are infinite dimensional subspaces of

Ferrite and iron powder magnetic materials were developed to support a wide range of components, including inductors, EMI suppressors, conventional transformers and transmission line transformers (TLTs). This article deals with transmission line transformers, presenting the observations and conclusions of the author, reached after extensive experimental research into the behavior and performanc...

Using turbulent MHD simulations (magnetic Reynolds numbers up to≈ 8000) and Hinode observations, we study effects of turbulence on measuring the solar magnetic field outside active regions. Firstly, from synthetic Stokes V profiles for the FeI lines at 6301 and 6302 Å, we show that a peaked probability distribution function (PDF) for observationally-derived field estimates is consistent with a ...

We found that a moving target line, more-vertical than 45 deg-oriented background lines, pops-out (d'=1.2) although it moves at the same speed of background elements and although it is invisible in static presentation (d'=.7). We suggest that the moving more-vertical target is more salient because the motion system responds to the orthogonal-velocity-component (V(perpendicular)=Delta d/Delta t ...

Submitted: Jan 2, 2013; Accepted: Feb 6, 2013; Published: Aug 18, 2013 Abstract: This study was undertaken to determine the effects of divergent selection and different positions of Japanese quail eggs in artificial incubation on hatchability, egg weight loss, chick weight. 300 Japanese quail (100 birds in each line) were used for egg collection. These lines have been selected for high (HW) and...
