Material modeling platform

Platform-Independent Autonomy Modeling

We describe an approach for high-level modeling behaviors of autonomous vehicles and an infrastructure for executing these behaviors on a particular vehicle platform. The language directly represents behavioral primitives and constraints on their composition. The control infrastructure maps these behavioral primitives on the native vehicle interface in a model-driven fashion. As a result, the u...

PolicySpace: a modeling platform

Public Policy involves proposing changes to existing practices, alternatives, new habits. Citizens and institutions react accordingly, accepting, refuting or adapting. Agent-based modeling is a tool that can enrich the policy analysis package explicitly considering dynamics, space and individual-level interactions. This paper presents a modeling platform called PolicySpace that models public po...

Influence of modeling material on undercut slope failure mechanism

A series of physical modeling tests were conducted by means of a beam type geotechnical centrifuge machine in order to investigate the drainage impact on the slope failure mechanism under centrifugal acceleration. Meanwhile, the phenomenon of stress redistribution in undercut slopes and the formation of arching effect were studied. For this purpose, a poorly graded sandy soil (Silica sand No. 6...

Modeling Material Reflection with BRDFLab

BRDFLab is a framework for modeling BRDFs intended for people working on representing, measuring and simulating material reflection. We describe the different functionalities provided by BRDFLab, which include the creation, inspection, fitting, and rendering of different types of BRDFs. We also show several examples of applications and describe how to easily expand its functionalities.
