Estimating Fingerprint Deformation
Fingerprint matching is affected by the nonlinear distortion introduced in fingerprint impressions during the image acquisition process. This nonlinear deformation causes fingerprint features such as minutiae points and ridge curves to be distorted in a complex manner. In this paper we develop an average deformation model for a fingerprint impression (baseline impression) by observing its relat...
متن کاملInelastic Contact Deformation of Metal Coated Fibers
ÐMetal matrix composites (MMCs) can be synthesized by aligning metal coated ceramic ®bers in a shaped container and applying pressure at elevated temperatures. The high stresses created at the contacts between neighboring ®bers cause inelastic matrix ̄ow that ®lls inter®ber voids, reduces inter®ber separations and results in composite densi®cation. The rate of densi®cation depends on the contac...
متن کاملSediment delivery to the Three Gorges 2: Local response
Information on soil erosion and sediment yields is very limited in the immediate vicinity of the Three Gorges Project Ž . TGP , although the inceptisols developed on Triassic shales and sandstones in this area are known to be highly susceptible Ž . to erosion. Estimated sediment yields for a small reservoir catchment Yiwanshui in Changshou County, downstream of Ž y2 y1. Chongqing, are high arou...
متن کاملEstimating entropies from molecular dynamics simulations.
While the determination of free-energy differences by MD simulation has become a standard procedure for which many techniques have been developed, total entropies and entropy differences are still hardly ever computed. An overview of techniques to determine entropy differences is given, and the accuracy and convergence behavior of five methods based on thermodynamic integration and perturbation...
متن کاملLocal Changes in Gravity Resulting From Deformation
The horizontal and vertical components of gravity change when tectonic stresses deform the earth because mass is redistributed relative to the gravity meter. We analyze the change in gravity resulting from deformation in a homogeneous elastic half-space. We derive expressions in closed form which give the change in horizontal and vertical components of gravity measured at the surface for any sp...
