the effect of temperature on the viscoelastic behavior of chicken meat frankfurters was assessed by creep recovery tests. compression creep-recovery tests were performed at room temperature (20°c) and refrigeration (5°c) on samples of cylindrical shape. the viscoelastic behavior of samples was characterized based on the parameters of the four-element burgers model. during the compression phase,...

In this work, we further discuss an approach to 3D shape recovery by combining photometric stereo and shape from contours methods. Surfaces recovered by photometric stereo are aligned, adjusted and merged according to a preliminary 3D model obtained by shape from contours. Comparisons are conducted to evaluate the performances of different methods. It has been found that the proposed combinatio...
