It has a step-shaped shaft with different round cross-sections and 1850 mm × 1110 mm rectangular cross-section. If the general method of free forging is used, the upsetting diameter of ingot will reach 2900 mm, and 8400 t hydraulic pr...

In this work, we propose a method to interactively deform high-resolution volumetric datasets, such as those obtained through medical imaging. Interactive deformation enables the visualization of these datasets in full detail using state-of-the-art volume rendering techniques as they are dynamically modified. Our approach relies on resampling the original dataset to a target regular grid, follo...

We present a 3D adhesion model based on the JKR theory applied locally for all contacting asperity couple and the calculations account the van der Waals interaction beside the externally applied force. Thus, equilibrium of the system is determined by an extremum in the free total energy and subsequently the contact and the adhesion parameters are computed for that particular position. The model...

The decrease in costs of semi-professional digital cameras has led to the possibility for everyone to acquire a very detailed description of a scene in a very short time. Unfortunately, the interpretation of the images is usually quite hard, due to the amount of data and the lack of robust and generic image analysis methods. Nevertheless, if a geometric description of the depicted scene is avai...

Due to recent developments in modeling software and advances in acquisition techniques for 3D geometry, large numbers of shapes have been digitized. Existing datasets include millions of real-world objects, cultural heritage artifacts, scientific and engineering models, all of which capture the world around us at nanoto planetary scales. As large repositories of 3D shape collections continue to...

We present a new non-rigid registration algorithm estimating the displacement field generated by articulated bodies. Indeed the bony structures between different patient images may rigidly move while other tissues may deform in a more complex way. Our algorithm tracks the displacement induced in the column by a movement of the patient between two acquisitions. The volumetric deformation field i...

The majority of manipulation systems are designed with the assumption that the objects being handled are rigid and do not deform when grasped. This paper address the problem of robotic grasping and manipulation of 3D deformable objects, such as rubber balls or bags filled with sand. Specifically, we have developed a generalized learning algorithm for handling of 3-D deformable objects in which ...

We study the primary root growth of wild-type Medicago truncatula plants in heterogeneous environments using 3D time-lapse imaging. The growth medium is a transparent hydrogel consisting of a stiff lower layer and a compliant upper layer. We find that the roots deform into a helical shape just above the gel layer interface before penetrating into the lower layer. This geometry is interpreted as...

In the 21 st century, numerical analysis is a proven tool for research and development of manufacturing processes. Mathematical modelling provides information about behaviour various materials during forming processes, instance. The real-world process therefore represented by an abstract mathematical model, on which calculations are performed. Three-roll skew rolling can be used grades steel. T...
