one of the main goals of interpretation of gravity data is to detect location and edges of the anomalies. edge detection of gravity anomalies is carried out by different methods. terracing of the data is one of the approaches that help the interpreter to achieve appropriate results of edge detection. this goal becomes a complex task when the gravity anomalies have smooth borders due to gradual ...

introduction: the objective of this study was to compare the shaping ability of three rotary filing systems; constant taper k3 instruments, constant taper profile instruments and progressive taper protaper rotary instruments in clear resin blocks with simulated curved root canals. materials and methods: forty five resin blocks were divided into three groups. group a preparation was conducted wi...

INTRODUCTION Fatigue resistance of ProFile, Vortex Blue, and TRUShape files in artificial single curvature and in 2 different artificial double curvature canals was evaluated. METHODS Three files (ProFile, Vortex Blue [size 20/.06], and TRUShape [size 20/.06v]) were subjected to fatigue tests in a single curvature (group 1: 60° curvature) and 2 different double curvatures (group 2: 60° and 30...

potential field images obtained in potential field data measurements are suitable tools for mineral and hydrocarbons resources explorations. these images consist of different anomalies which in many cases are contaminated with noise. the horizontal location of the boundaries of potential field anomaly sources is of interest in potential field interpretation. however, the edge of potential field...

A potential customer judges the aesthetic appeal of a product before the physical performance. This clearly indicates the importance of aesthetic shapes for the success of an industrial product. In curve design environment, a curve is characterized based on its curvature profile. A curvature profile is a graph plotted with the values of parameter t representing x-axis against its corresponding ...

terracing is an operator that is applied to potential field data to produce regions of constant field amplitude that are separated by sharp boundaries. magnetic data are usually transformed into pseudo-gravity data (baranov, 1957) prior to the application of terracing. the objective of terracing is ‘to recast potential field maps into a geologic map like format’ (cordell and mccafferty 1989). t...

abstract limitations of traditional (conventional) soil surveys and improvement of information technology have lead soil surveyors to invent new methods which are generally called digital soil mapping (dsm). the aim of these methods is the prediction of soil classes or soil properties based on easily-available or measuring environmental variables. the objective of this investigation is to study...

The choice of geometrical shape of the blades has a considerable effect on aerodynamic performance and flow characteristics in axial compressors. In this paper, the effects of the blades shape on the aerodynamic design characteristics are investigated based on Streamline Curvature Method (SCM). Initially, the Streamline Curvature Method (SCM) is used for designing a two-stage axial compressor. ...
