A Faster Algorithm to Compute the Visibility Map of a 1.5D Terrain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Given a 1.5D terrain, i.e., an x-monotone polygonal line in R2 with n vertices, and 1 _< m _< n viewpoints placed on some of the terrain vertices, we study the problem of computing the parts of the terrain that are visible from at least one of the ...

GMAW shielding gas flow optimisation by refinement of nozzle geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
With an ongoing demand to improve the efficiency of the gas metal arc welding process, steps are being taken to reduce the shielding gas consumption. However, sufficient shielding gas coverage of the weld region is essential for the generation of high ...

A Knowledge‐Based Approach for Understanding and Managing Additive Manufacturing Data

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing processes generate a large amount of data. Effectively managing, understanding, and retrieving information from this data remains a major challenge. Therefore, we propose an ontology‐based approach to integrate heterogeneous data, enable semantic queries, and support decision‐making.

High Accuracy Geochemical Map Generation Method by a Spatial Autocorrelation-Based Mixture Interpolation Using Remote Sensing Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Generating a high-resolution whole-pixel geochemical contents map from a map with sparse distribution is a regression problem. Currently, multivariate prediction models like machine learning (ML) are constructed to raise the geoscience mapping resolution.

Grouping Time-Varying Data for Interactive Exploration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present algorithms and data structures that support the interactive analysis of the grouping structure of one-, two-, or higher-dimensional time-varying data while varying all defining parameters. Grouping structures characterise important patterns in

A Simplified Laminar Flow Model for the Pultrusion of Glass Fiber/Polyethylene Terephthalate Commingled Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

A simple algorithm for calculating the area of an arbitrary polygon

open access: yesRuhuna Journal of Science, 2017
Computing the area of an arbitrary polygon is a popular problem in pure mathematics. The two methods used are Shoelace Method (SM) and Orthogonal Trapezoids Method (OTM).

Discrete Geometry, Algebra, and Combinatorics (Invited Talk) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many problems in discrete and computational geometry can be viewed as finding patterns in graphs or hypergraphs which arise from geometry or algebra. Famous Ramsey, Turán, and Szemerédi-type results prove the existence of certain patterns in graphs and ...

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Affecting the Properties of Copper–Graphene Electroconductive Composite by Severe Plastic Deformation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Copper‐based composites enhanced with carbon feature convenient mechanical properties and favorable electric conductivity. Processing via deformation and thermomechanical treatments can introduce advantageous microstructures further enhancing their performance. Herein, copper–graphene powder‐based composites are directly consolidated via rotary swaging
