Optic flow describes the apparent motion that is present in an image sequence. We show the feasibility of obtaining optic flow from dynamic properties of a sparse set of so called anchor points. Singular points of a Gaussian scale space image are identified as feasible anchor point candidates and analytical expressions describing their dynamic properties are presented. The advantage of approach...

The main objective of this article is to predict the traffic flow for the purpose of urban traffic management. Long term incidents, such as floods, road maintenance or major traffic incidents can cause significant disruptions on the traffic flows in large metropolitan areas such as Sydney. There is a need to comprehend how traffic will be impacted in a city during such an event. One main reason...

Floating-point processing utilizes a format defined in IEEE 754, and is supported by microprocessor architectures. However, the IEEE 754 format is inefficient to implement in hardware, and floating-point processing is not supported in VHDL or Verilog. Newer versions, such as SystemVerilog, allow floating-point variables, but industry-standard synthesis tools do not support floating-point techno...

Energy equation for turbulent flow in a rotating system was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors, where the correlation tensors were functions of space coordinates, distance between two points and time. To reveal the relationship of turbulent energy between two points, one point was taken as origin of the coordinate system. Due to rotation, the Coriolis force played an important...

In this paper we examine the effect of mild stenosis on blood flow, in an irregular axisymmetric artery with oscillating pressure gradient. The Herschel-Bulkley fluid model has been utilized for this study. The combined influence of an asymmetric shape and surface irregularities of constriction has been explored in this computational study. An extensive quantitative analysis has been performed ...
