In this paper, first the limitations of the ray-based method and the one-way wave-field extrapolation migration (WEM) in imaging steeply dipping structures are discussed by some examples. Then a new method of the reverse time migration (RTM), used in imaging such complex structures is presented. The proposed method uses a new wave-field extrapolator called the Leapfrog-Rapid Expansion Method (L...

In this paper a time-dependent moving-grid method is described to numerically solve time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) in one space dimensions involving fine scale structures such as steep moving fronts, emerging steep layers, pulses and shocks. Smoothing in the spatial direction is employed to control grid clustering and expansion. Additional smoothing in the temporal directi...

The automatic process for texturing 3D urban environments realistically is a challenging topic in Computer Graphics, especially when the model is generated from 2D GIS data from real sites. In order to achieve realistic scenes, buildings, urban furniture and street roadways should be modeled automatically also considering the slope of steep streets. A texturing process by hand which takes into ...

Corn steep water as effluent which arrives in environment from starch processing industry has adverse effects on the environment and also large volume of fresh water is wasted. Corn step water is composed of high concentration of proteins, sugar, starch, vitamin and minerals, so it can be used as substrate for production of biological products. Hence, corn steep water concentration is important...

In this letter, the phase compensation method to remove an interfering phase in Pi-SAR-X2 POLSAR data is proposed. This phase is induced when a steep surface is observed by the H and V polarization antennas which are vertically placed. The proposed method removes the phase errors by using the elevation data which is acquired with the slave-V antenna displaced in the cross-track direction (for i...

[1] The mechanisms that control climate-dependent rockfall from permafrost mountain slopes are currently poorly understood. In this study, we present the results of an extensive rock slope monitoring campaign at the Matterhorn (Switzerland) with a wireless sensor network. A negative dependency of cleft expansion relative to temperature was observed at all clefts for the dominant part of the yea...
