This paper describes a probabilistic method for three-dimensional object recognition using a shared pool of surface signatures. This technique uses flatness, orientation, and convexity signatures that encode the surface of a free-form object into three discriminative vectors, and then creates a shared pool of data by clustering the signatures using a distance function. This method applies the B...

fused deposition modeling (fdm) is a filament based rapid prototyping system provides us to manufacture real parts with multiple production-grade materials, such as abs-m30, pc, ppsf and pc-abs blend. fused deposition modeling technology, essentially perform using layer manufacturing process. more complex 3d physical models can be efficiently fabricated without geometric limitation by this tech...

Implicit modeling has been used since the early 1980s as an alternative to mainstream solid-modeling techniques. Beyond Boolean composition, implicit modeling integrates blending and deformation operators which allow complex free-form solid models to be more easily described. Recent advances have alleviated some of the major technical problems, such as visualization speed and surface control. I...

the arithmetic mean roughness, ra, values were determined by scanning electron microscopic technique of different core models (furazolidone, nitrofurantoin and acetyl salicylic acid), coated by hpmc film forming solution containing 10 wt% of various molecular weight pegs. the results showed that both plasticizer molecular weight and core surface free energy could have a significant influence on...

effects of some thermo-physical parameters on free convective heat and mass transfer over a vertical stretching surface at lowest level of heat energy in the presence of suction is investigated. the viscosity of the fluid is assumed to vary as a linear function of temperature and thermal conductivity is assumed constant. a similarity transformation is applied to reduce the governing equations i...

in this article, finite difference method (fdm) is used to study the size-dependent free vibration characteristics of rectangular nanoplates considering the surface stress effects. to include the surface effects in the equations, gurtin-murdoch continuum elasticity approach has been employed. the effects of surface properties including the surface elasticity, surface residual stress and surface...

Interactive tools for shape modeling with hierarchical implicit surfaces have been limited both by the high computational cost of visualization, and the lack of techniques for direct surface manipulation. To address the visualization issue, Hierarchical Spatial Caching is developed. This novel technique combines caching and spatial approximation to accelerate queries of the functional model tre...
