Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 1354. 58 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9513-8. This thesis focuses on calculation of finite and progressive deformation in different tectonic scales using 2D numerical mod...

The detection of active rock glacier and the quantification of the observed surface movement as well as its temporal change using the D-InSAR method are presented. An average deformation rate of -7.7 mm/35 days in the radar lineof-sight, in the summer of 1992, was estimated. Whereas, the corresponding geodetic measurement, vertical component of 3D flow velocity, was about –8.0 mm/35 days. Addit...

This paper presents a new technique for the automatic model-based segmentation of 3-D objects from volumetric image data. The development closely follows the seminal work of Cootes et al. [5] but presents various new solutions to come up with a true 3-D technique rather than a sliceby-slice 2-D processing. The segmentation system includes both the building of statistical models and the automati...

This paper proposes continuum deformation as a strategy for controlling the collective motion of a multiple quadcopter system (MQS) carrying a common payload. Continuum deformation allows expansion and contraction of inter-agent distances in a 2−D motion plane to follow desired motions of three team leaders. The remaining quadcopter followers establish the desired continuum deformation only by ...

We review unique mechanisms of plastic deformation in nanoand micropillars. At the nanoscale, it is shown that plastic deformation is asymmetric with respect to direction of mechanical loading, as a result of specific relationships between the normal and resolved shear stress on active slip planes. This is attributed to the dependence of shear wave speed on the stress state acting on slip plane...

The paper presents a new parameter-free approach to non-rigid image registration, where displacements, obtained through a mapping of boundary structures in the source and target image, are incorporated as hard constraints into elastic image deformation. As a consequence, our approach does not contain any parameters of the deformation model (elastic constants). The approach guarantees the exact ...
