چکیده

3D techniques are increasingly used in aerospace industry to improve quality and performance of aircrafts. This paper presents a 3D imaging technique for studying the aerodynamic shape and flight performance of micro air vehicles. 3D stereoscopic vision, based upon stroboscopic imaging, was utilized to obtain the 3D information of the aircraft’s flexible aerodynamic surface. The aircraft models with deformable aerodynamic shape were designed and tested in a purpose-built wind tunnel experimental environment. After calculation of SIFT feature points and subdivision of triangular meshes, deformable surface of the aircraft’s aerodynamic shape was represented. The aircraft’s 3D visualization was used for analyzing unsteady deformation in the aerodynamic shape under external airflow disturbances. The results, together with aerodynamic forces measured in the experiment, will be useful to improve the flight performance and disturbance resistance ability of micro air vehicles. 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Application of Architectural Visual Documents and Oral History of in the Representation of Micro-Spaces and Three-Dimensional (3D) Modeling of Nawab Razavi Historical House in Yazd

Over the time, various factors have led to damage the Iranian houses. By examining the surviving documents of Nawab Razavichr('39')s house in Yazd, it is possible to represent a major part of the lost spaces and also to minimize speculation in the restoration of this historic house. The basic belief of this research is that the studies of the oral history of architecture as well as the existing...
