Abstract We propose a novel fully automated deformation analysis pipeline capable of estimating real 3D displacement vectors from point cloud data. Different the traditional methods that establish displacements based on proximity in Euclidean space, our approach estimates dense vector fields by searching for corresponding points across epochs space local feature descriptors. Due to this formula...

A new device has been designed, and a prototype built and tested, that can simultaneously measure the displacements and/or the components of a force in three orthogonal directions. The "3D sensor" consists of four or eight strain gauges attached to the four arms of a single cross-shaped force-measuring cantilever spring. Finite element modeling (FEM) was performed to optimize the design configu...

investigation and monitoring of the displacement field derived from deformation is among the important studies in earth science and geophysics topics, which plays a main role in the prevention and praxeology of natural disasters such as earthquake, subsidence, land slide et cetera. here we can mention the several methods in geodetic measurement and deformation monitoring such as spirit leveling...

Metallic implants in MRI cause spin-echo (SE) images to be distorted in the slice and frequency-encoding directions. Chang and Fitzpatrick (IEEE Trans Med Imaging 1992;11:319-329) proposed a distortion correction method (termed the CF method) based on the magnitude images from two SE acquisitions that differ only in the polarity of the frequency-encoding and slice-selection gradients. In the pr...

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that audiovisual (AV) biofeedback can improve image quality and reduce scan time for respiratory-gated 3D thoracic MRI. For five healthy human subjects respiratory motion guidance in MR scans was provided using an AV biofeedback system, utilizing real-time respiratory motion signals. To investigate the improvement of respiratory‐gated 3D MR i...

A method for computing the 3D camera motion (the egomotion) in a static scene is described, where initially a detected 2D motion between two frames is used to align corresponding image regions. We prove that such a 2D registration removes all effects of camera rotation, even for those image regions that remain misaligned. The resulting residual parallax displacement field between the two region...

We investigate the impact of the non-uniform spatio-temporal conversion, intrinsic to photopolymerisation, in the context of light-driven 3D printing of polymers. The polymerisation kinetics of a series of model acrylate and thiol-ene systems, both neat and doped with a light-absorbing dye, is investigated experimentally and analysed according to a descriptive coarse-grained model for photopoly...
