Three-dimensional geology from potential field geophysics: Applications to Bathurst Mining Camp, Eastern Canada

Integration of Geology, Geophysics, Geochemistry and Imagery for Mineral Exploration Applications

Today’s geologists have unprecedented access to multi-disciplinary geoscientific data and information. The problem in this “dataand informationrich” environment lies in implementing efficient approaches for verifying and integrating all available data and information. Effective integration leads directly to increased success potential and reduced exploration risk. Data verification is particula...

richard taubert FROM NEAR-FIELD TO FAR-FIELD: plasmonic coupling in three-dimensional nanostructures From Near-Field to Far-Field: Plasmonic Coupling in Three-Dimensional Nanostructures

This thesis provides a comprehensive study of the coupling phenomena that occur in plasmonic nanostructures. Electromagnetic coupling between metallic nanoparticles leads to strong spectral modifications in the structures, which are determined using linear optical spectroscopy in the visible and infrared wavelength range. In contrast to previous investigations, the key aspect here are the prope...

A perturbed two-level preconditioner for the solution of three-dimensional heterogeneous Helmholtz problems with applications to geophysics

Three-dimensional cell cultures: from molecular mechanisms to clinical applications.

This article reviews actual advances in the development and application of three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture systems. Recent therapeutically oriented studies include characterization of multicellular-mediated drug resistance, novel ways of quantifying hypoxia, and new approaches to more efficient immunotherapy. Recent progress toward understanding the development of necrosis in tumor spheroi...

Skeletonization of Three-Dimensional Object Using Generalized Potential Field

ÐThe medial axis transform (MAT) is a skeletal representation of an object which has been shown to be useful in interrogation, animation, finite element mesh generation, path planning, and feature recognition. In this paper, the potential-based skeletonization approach for 2D MAT [1], which identifies object skeleton as potential valleys using a Newtonian potential model in place of the distanc...
