Ultra-high field superconducting magnets are facing a mechanical degradation problem. On 2017, world-record high DC magnetic of 45.5 T was generated by insert no-insulation (NI) Rare-Earth Barium Copper Oxide (REBCO) pancake coils (14.4 T), called “LBC3”, and an outsert resistive magnet (31.1 T). Although the experiment showed potential NI REBCO for ultra-high generation, tapes were plastically...

Cartoon animation, image warping, and several other tasks in two-dimensional computer graphics reduce to the formulation of a reasonable model for planar deformation. A deformation is a map from a given shape to a new one, and its quality is determined by the type of distortion it introduces. In many applications, a desirable map is as isometric as possible. Finding such deformations, however, ...

This paper presents a novel landmark-based shape deformation method. This method effectively solves two problems inherent in landmark-based shape deformation: (a) identification of landmark points from a given input image, and (b) regularized deformation of the shape of an object defined in a template. The second problem is solved using a new constrained support vector machine (SVM) regression ...
