Shipboard is not an absolute rigid body. Many factors could cause deformations which lead to large errors of mounted devices, especially for the navigation systems. Such errors should be estimated and compensated effectively, or they will severely reduce the navigation accuracy of the ship. In order to estimate the deformation, an unscented particle filter method for estimation of shipboard def...

Introduction: The tracking of anatomical features in cardiac cine MR images facilitates the analysis of myocardial motion. For example, wall thickening is an important clinical index of myocardial function. Non-rigid registration methods allow fast, automatic tracking of image features through a temporal sequence [1]. We implemented an efficient non-rigid registration algorithm on the scanner’s...

Trailer systems consist of a steering tractor and a passive trailer linked together with rigid free joint. The backward driving of trailer system is more difficult than the forward driving, because the backward driving of trailer system is unstable. In this paper, we study the backward tracking control for trailer systems and implement the asymptotically stable tracking controller using Lyapuno...

そこで本研究では、FFD の格子を自動生成し、オリジ ナルの FFD の柔軟性を保ちつつ、ユーザによる 3 次元 モデルの変形を支援する手法を提案する。我々の手法 は、まずモデルのバウンディングボックスを生成し、 それを初期格子とする。その初期格子から階層的に新 たな格子を生成することで、多重解像度格子という格 子集合を作り出し、ユーザがその中から目的に沿った 適切な格子、すなわち大域的な変形のための少数の制 御点を持つ格子や、局所的な変形のための変形対象領 域の形状をよく近似する格子を選択できるようにする。 さらに、変形前の格子だけでなく、ユーザによって変 形された格子から新たな格子の生成を行うことで、階 層的変形を行うことができる。階層的変形を用いるこ とで、格子をバウンディングボックスから再定義する ことなく、大域的な変形から局所的な変形、またはそ の逆といったようにモデルを階...

Abstract. This paper is concerned with the numerical approximation of stochastic ordinary differential equations, which satisfy a global monotonicity condition. This condition includes several equations with super-linearly growing drift and diffusion coefficient functions such as the stochastic Ginzburg-Landau equation and the 3/2-volatility model from mathematical finance. Our analysis of the ...

In this work, we show that the eigenvalues of the problem  (∆2 + V (x) + λ)u(x) = 0 x ∈ Ω u(x) = ∆u(x) = 0 x ∈ ∂Ω are generically simple in the set of C4 regular regions of Rn, n ≥ 2. In fact, we prove that there exists a residual set of regions C4 diffeomorphic to a given Ω such that all the eigenvalues for a supported plate equation are simple.

We present a semi-implicit numerical method for micromagnetics simulations, in the presence of spin-currents. The dynamics of the magnetization are described by the Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation, while the dynamics of the spin are described by a diffusion equation with discontinuous coefficients. The complexity of the method presented is comparable to that of solving the linear heat equation...

With the increasing complexity of photo-realistic scenes, the question of building and placing objects in three-dimensional scenes is becoming ever more di cult. While the question of placement of rigid objects has captured the attention of researchers in the past, this work presents an intuitive and interactive scheme to properly place deformable objects with the aid of free-form deformation t...

in the hot compression test friction has a detrimental influence on the flow stress through the process and therefore, correcting the deformation curve for real behavior is very important for both researchers and engineers. in this study, a series of compression tests were simulated using abaqus software. in this study, it has been employed the taguchi method to design experiments by the factor...
