The results form the application of the method of homogenization for the transport of solute in a porous medium with microscale pores and the rock matrix are applied to examine the dispersion characteristics of a solute in a porous rock matrix with parallel fractures including the retardation in the rock matrix and the decay effects. By using the solutions to a boundary value problem the effect...

The major purpose of this work was to estimate the impacts of heterogeneous conditions on the heat extraction from EGS. These impacts were estimated based on a comparison of the heterogeneous reservoir responses with the response of an equivalent isotropic homogeneous reservoir. Multiple representations of a heterogeneous reservoir were considered in this analysis. The heterogeneity is a result...

background : improvement of facial beauty is a major reason why patients with dentofacial problems opt for orthognathic surgery. people are eventually judged by their facial appearance by themselves, their friends & family and even surgeons. with the recent developments in technology, we now have a 3d structure that can build and analyze 3d images before & after surgery and review the extent of...

The problem of structure from motion (SFM) is to extract the three-dimensional model of a moving scene from a sequence of images. Though two images are sufficient to produce a 3D reconstruction, they usually perform poorly because of errors in the estimation of the camera motion, thus motivating the need for multiple frame algorithms. One common approach to this problem is to determine the esti...

Correspondence of features between two or more images obtained from different views of the same object is still a challenging problem in vision. In many applications, these two views are part of a larger video sequence. The aim of this paper is to show that the original video data contains enough information (referred to as prior information) to design a robust correspondence algorithm. A doubl...
