State of the art scene flow estimation techniques are based on projections of the 3D motion on image using luminance-sampled at the frame rate of the cameras-as the principal source of information. We introduce in this paper a pure time based approach to estimate the flow from 3D point clouds primarily output by neuromorphic event-based stereo camera rigs, or by any existing 3D depth sensor eve...

BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to investigate the feasibility and potential value of the computer-controlled, 3D, echocardiographic reconstruction of the color Doppler-imaged vena contracta (CDVC) and the flow convergence (FC) region as a means of accurately and quantitatively estimating the severity of a ventricular septal defect (VSD). METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a 3D reco...

The visualisation of 3D flow poses many challenges. Difficulties can stem from attempting to capture all flow features, the speed of computation, and spatial perception. Streamlines and stream surfaces are standard tools for visualising 3D flow. Although a variety of automatic seeding approaches have been proposed for streamlines, little work has been presented for stream surfaces. We present a...

Environmentally friendly nature and the direct impact of gabion weirs on the quality parameters of rivers as well as simple design and construction of such structures, has putted them under consideration in the recent years. In this research, Hydraulic parameters of gabion crump weirs including water surface profile, discharge coefficient and through flow discharge are investigated numerically ...

In this research work, a 3D numerical modeling technique is proposed based on the 3D particle flow code in order to investigate the failure mechanism of rock foundations. Two series of footings with different geometries and areas are considered in this work. The failure mechanism obtained is similar to that of the Terzaghi’s but there is a negligible difference in between. Lastly, one equation ...

For the fast transient dam break flooding with floating bodies presented through intricate city layouts, the traditional grid-based method based on solving two dimensional (2D) Shallow Water Equations or three dimensional (3D) Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations have difficulty in modelling the 3D unsteady flow features and the moving objects in the flow, causing inaccuracies. In this pap...

Introduction: Due to the complex 3-dimensional (3D) nature of the beating left heart and flow direction through the chambers, normal physiological as well as pathologically altered blood flow conditions are difficult to assess in-vivo. MR studies using comprehensive 3-dimensional (3D) and 3-directionally encoded techniques, (flow-sensitive 4D MRI) have given information on multidirectional bloo...

In this paper we have proposed a test cost model for core-based 3D Stacked ICs (SICs) connected by Through Silicon Vias (TSVs). Unlike in the case of non-stacked chips, where the test flow is well defined by applying the same test schedule both at wafer sort and at package test, the most cost-efficient test flow for 3D TSV-SICs is yet undefined. Therefore, analysing the various alternatives of ...
