In this paper, a Shearing Invariant Texture Descriptor (SITD) is proposed, which is a theoretically and computationally simple method based on the Rotation invariant Local Binary Pattern (Rot-LBP) descriptor. In real-world applications using flatbed scanners, such as paper texture fingerprinting, it’s common for a sheet of paper to rotate during the image acquisition process. Because the rotati...

The activation energies associated with the formation of a superlattice intrinsic stacking fault (SISF) from an antiphase domain boundary (APB) and the formation of a superlattice extrinsic stacking fault (SESF) from a complex stacking fault (CSF) in g 0 phase of Ni-based superalloys are calculated using a microscopic phase field dislocation model in combination with the nudged elastic band (NE...

Abstract This paper deals with the Saint-Venant torsion of elastic, cylindrically orthotropic bar whose cross section is a sector circular ring shaped bar. The homogeneous elastic wedge-shaped strengthened by on its curved boundary surfaces thin isotropic shells. An analytical method presented to obtain Prandtl’s stress function, torsional rigidity and shearing stresses. A numerical example ill...

We propose a simple continuum model to interpret the shearing motion of dense, dry and cohesion-less granular media. Compressibility, dilatancy and Coulomb-like friction are the three basic ingredients. The granular stress is split into a rate-dependent part representing the rebound-less impacts between grains and a rate-independent part associated with long-lived contacts. Because we consider ...

The flow curves, viz. the curves of stationary stress under steady shearing, are obtained close to the glass transition in dense colloidal dispersions using asymptotic expansions in the schematic F₁₂(γ)-model of mode coupling theory. The shear thinning of the viscosity in fluid states and the yielding of glassy states is discussed. At the transition between fluid and shear-molten glass, simple ...

A series of ring shear tests were conducted to investigate the ultimate particle size distribution a carbonate sand. The carried out under different stress levels, on three types specimens: 1) uniformly graded specimens made dry natural sand 2) remoulded crushed after first shearing large strains 3) grains but with same grading as in (2). type (1), very strains, led apparently stable gradings, ...

In Dynamic Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (DESPI), deformation analysis could be done for successively acquired frame data of interfering speckle patterns with no additional frames like phase shifting speckle patterns. Our final goal is to obtain a temporally varying process of two-dimensional strain field. Two normal strains and shearing strain are derived by numerical derivatives o...

This paper presents a novel image watermarking resynchronization technique in discrete wavelet trans-form (DWT) domain. Rotation and shearing attacks desynchronizing watermark model in DWT domain are given respectively. According to these models, two corresponding watermarking resynchronization algorithms are proposed. The ideal watermark can be extracted from the resynchronized watermarked ima...
