Fracture flow of two-phase mixtures is particularly applicable to the coal mining and coal bed methane projects in Australia. A one-dimensional steady-state pseudo-two-phase flow model is proposed for fractured rock. The model considers free flow of a compressible mixture of air and water in an inclined planar fracture and is based upon the conservation of momentum and the “cubic” law. The flow...

The study area is located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, among the municipalities of Pedro Leopoldo, Matozinhos, and Sete Lagoas, with Velhas River as the eastern boundary. It is located in the São Francisco Craton, where carbonated argillo-arenaceous sediments are emplaced giving origin to the Bambuí Group, in the São Francisco Basin. Despite the geological knowledge previously develope...

Abstract This study provides the first contribution to knowledge of non-calcareous grasslands arenaceous sector Monti Sibillini National Park (central Italy). We conducted 55 relevés using Braun-Blanquet phytosociological method and analysed ecology plant communities by Redundancy analysis topographic variables Ellenberg Indicator Values as predictors. identified nine communities, belonging fou...

The Applications of Pattern recognition like wood classification, stone and rock classification problems, the major usage techniques ate different texture classification techniques. Generally most of the problems used statistical approach for texture analysis and texture classification. Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrices (GLCM) approach is particularly applied in texture analysis and texture cla...

Use of a single technique for the extraction of diverse features in a texture image usually shows limited capabilities for texture description. Texture features extracted using different techniques can be merged in an attempt to enhance their texture description capability. This paper explores the fusion of optimized moment and Gabor energy texture features. The Fisher linear discriminant analy...

In this paper a combined statistical and structural approach has been employed for texture representation. A set of Texture Primitives has been suggested. These primitives are basically tested for the presence of texture by conducting a suitable statistical test called Nair’s test. The set of universal primitives are labeled as local descriptor and the frequency of occurrences of these primitiv...

A regular texture contains a periodic arrangement of a determinable pattern. Motifs of a regular texture are the minimal parallelogrammic sub-regions that can reproduce the texture by tiling. A motif extracted from a regular texture can be used for texture reproduction, texture recognition, and texture compression. However, it is not simple to accurately capture a motif of a regular texture, as...

It is known that the human visual system, unsurpassed in its ability to reconstruct surfaces, employs different cues to solve this difficult task. The prevailing method in digital photogrammetry is stereopsis. However, texture may provide valuable information about the shape of surfaces. In this paper we employ Laws' method of texture energy transforms to extract texture information from digita...

-Texture analysis is significant field in image processing and computer vision. Shape and texture has groovy correlation and texture can be defined by shape descriptor. Three individual approach Zernike moment, which is orthogonal shape signifier, Gabor features and Haralick features are utilized for texture analysis. Another approach is applied by aggregating all the features for texture analy...

In this work, we demonstrate the promise and perils of texture analysis and texture synthesis applied to near-regular patterns. We propose a novel view of texture as statistical departures from regular patterns. We shall show that a true understanding of near-regular texture structures based on their translation symmetries can enhance existing methods of texture synthesis. Our texture synthesis...
