In this paper, we develop a method for tracking markless human pose in monocular video human motion. The number of required particles will grow exponentially when particle filter is applied to high dimensional tracking problems such as tracking human body poses, and particle filter with partitioned sampling is adopted to deal with this problem. We design a 2D human body model with constraints, ...

In this chapter we present a new method for simulating the motion of a disperse particle phase in a carrier gas through porous media. We assume a sufficiently dilute particle-laden flow and compute, independently of the disperse phase, the steady laminar fluid velocity using the Immersed Boundary (IB) method. Given the velocity of the carrier gas, the equations of motion for the particles exper...

The spheropolyhedra method has been used earlier for efficient and accurate molecular dynamics simulations of granular matter with particles with complex shapes. Also the Voronoi construction is a tool of proved utility for the virtual representation of powders and grains. In this paper a technique that combines the two methods and provides a framework for the study of the three-dimensional mec...

light weight wood base sandwich panels have some special properties and their most important properties is high mechanical strength with its light weight. these panels can replace instead of traditional structural systems in iran. the purpose of this paper is investigating the mechanical properties of light weight wood base sandwich panels that have made from sunflower stalk wastes and particle...
