Interferogram images derived from repeat-pass spaceborne synthetic aperture radar systems exhibit artifacts due to the time and space variations of atmospheric water vapor. Other tropospheric variations, such as pressure and temperature, also induce distortions, but the effects are smaller in magnitude and more evenly distributed throughout the interferogram than the wet troposphere term. Spati...

Interferometric Point Target Analysis (IPTA) is a method to exploit the temporal and spatial characteristics of interferometric signatures collected from point targets to accurately map surface deformation histories, terrain heights, and relative atmospheric path delays. In this contribution the IPTA methodology is presented. Furthermore, based on examples, its applicability for stacks of ERS a...

Let R be a perfect Fp-algebra, equipped with the trivial norm. Let W (R) be the ring of p-typical Witt vectors over R, equipped with the p-adic norms. We prove that via the Teichmüller map, the nonarchimedean analytic space (in the sense of Berkovich) associated to R is a (strong) deformation retract of the space associated to W (R).

We discuss BFV deformation quantization [5] in the special case of a linear Hamiltonian torus action. In particular, we show that the Koszul complex on the moment map of an effective linear Hamiltonian torus action is acyclic. We rephrase the nonpositivity condition of [2] for linear Hamiltonian torus actions. It follows that reduced spaces of such actions admit continuous star products.

In this paper, by using the Kuranishi coordinates on the Teichmüller space and the explicit deformation formula of holomorphic one-forms on Riemann surface, we give an explicit expression of the period map and derive new differential geometric proofs of the Torelli theorems, both local and global, for Riemann surfaces.

This paper presents a method for effectively modeling the outer surfaces of inlay/onlay prostheses restoring teeth that are partially destroyed. We exploit 3D mesh deformation techniques: direct manipulation free-form deformation (DMFFD) [9] and multiple wires deformation (MWD) [10] with three kinds of information: standard teeth models, scanned mesh data from the plaster cast of a patient's to...

In this study, isothermal single-pass forming doformation of forged 18CrNiMo7-6 alloy steel was carried out by Gleeble-3500 thermal simulation testing machine. The constitutive equations and processing maps with parameters deformation temperature strain rate were established. results show that the optimum hot are 1050 °C, 0.1 s–1 peak power efficiency being 0.432. mechanism grain refinement dur...
