We investigate the low-energy spectrum of excitations of a compressible electron liquid in a strong magnetic field. These excitations are localized at the periphery of the system. The analysis of a realistic model of a smooth edge yields new branches of acoustic excitation spectrum in addition to the well known edge magnetoplasmon mode. The velocities are found and the observability conditions ...

In this paper we discuss the automatic construction of quality nonobtuse boundary Delaunay triangulations of polygons such as needed for control volume or nite element method applications. These are Delaunay triangulations whose smallest angles are bounded and, in addition, whose boundary triangles do not have obtuse angles opposite to any boundary or interface edge. The method we propose in th...

We present a new, interactive tool called Intelligent Scissors which we use for image segmentation. Fully automated segmentation is an unsolved problem, while manual tracing is inaccurate and laboriously unacceptable. However, Intelligent Scissors allow objects within digital images to be extracted quickly and accurately using simple gesture motions with a mouse. When the gestured mouse positio...

Sound reflections from most finite surfaces, such as overhead reflector panels, include a component known as edge diffraction. Edge diffraction is the scattered energy required to maintain a continuous sound field despite the discontinuity in acoustical impedance presented by the scatterer. Edge diffraction can interfere with primary scattered energy to produce comb filtering at receiver locati...

this deals with the harmonic forced vibration of a circular plate surface bonded by two piezoelectric layers, based on the kirchhoff plate model. the form of electric potential field in the piezoelectric layer is assumed such that the maxwell static electricity equation is satisfied. the differential equations of motion are solved analytically for clamped edge boundary condition of the plate. t...

An edge may be defined as a set of connected pixels that forms a boundary between two disjoints regions. Edge detection is basically, a method of segmenting an image into regions of discontinuity. Edge detection plays an important role in digital image processing and practical aspects of our life. .In this paper we studied various edge detection techniques as Prewitt, Robert, Sobel, Marr Hildri...

Edge is a basic feature of an image. Edges can be defined as boundary between two different regions in an image. Edge detection refers to the process of identifying and locating sharp discontinuities in an image. Edge detection process significantly reduces the amount of data and filters out useless information, while preserving the essential structural properties in an image. .In this paper we...
