Our research team, Christpher Zappa (Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory), Michael Banner (LamontDoherty Earth Observatory and University of New South Wales) and Howard Schultz (University of Massachusetts, Amherst), conducted a proof-of-concept study to assess the effectiveness of a new passive optical technique based on polarimetry. Conventional optical remote sensing techniques rely on light am...

In this study, firstly, the YL12 aluminum alloy is used as experimental materials, then in the following experiments it is cut in JJ-I-type water jet machines, and 1,000 group data are gotten by measurement. In each group data, pressure, material thickness, surface roughness, abrasive flow and traversing speed are included. Next, BP artificial neural network is established. In this network, the...

The tribological behaviour of the bearing surface in hip arthroplasty is greatly influenced by its surface roughness. During cemented hip arthroplasty, bone cement may contaminate the bearing surface. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cement polymerization on a highly cross-linked polyethylene(HCLP) bearing surface as any process influences the surface roughness of t...

This paper discusses the continuation of the research work started in 2004. The previous results have been published both in ASPRS and ISPRS conferences. Now we intend to emphasize the latest developments and extended application areas of the system. Due to the increasing demand of the transportation authorities for rapid, accurate data acquisition about the road pavement, a mobile mapping syst...

The dynamics of protein conformational changes, from protein folding to smaller changes, such as those involved in ligand binding, are governed by the properties of the conformational energy landscape. Different techniques have been used to follow the motion of a protein over this landscape and thus quantify its properties. However, these techniques often are limited to short timescales and low...

In this paper, we propose a hybrid metrology approach to the measurement and characterization of the nanoroughness of freeform film surfaces. The basic idea is to combine measurement data from Atomic Force and Scanning Electron Microscopes (AFM and SEM respectively) in a synergetic manner exploiting the advantages of both methods and reducing the effects of their shortcomings. The fusion of dat...

Most land surface models require information on aerodynamic roughness length and its temporal and spatial variability. This research presents a practical approach for determining the aerodynamic roughness length at fine temporal and spatial resolution over the landscape by combining remote sensing and ground measurements. The basic framework of Raupach, with the bulk surface parameters redefine...

The addition of electronics, computers, and software to interferometry has enabled enormous improvements in optical metrology. This paper discusses four areas in which computerized interferometric measurement improvements have been made in the measurement of surface shape and surface roughness: (a) The use of computer-generated holograms for the testing of aspheric optics, (b) phase-shifting in...
