Flexible body scanning without template models
Signal Processing, 2019Abstract The apparition of low-cost depth cameras has lead to the development of several reconstruction methods that work well with rigid objects, but tend to fail when used to manually scan a standing person. Specific methods for body scanning have been proposed, but they have some ad-hoc requirements that make them unsuitable in a wide range of ...

A wearable and flexible Bracelet computer for on-body sensing
2011 IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference (CCNC), 2011Small-size, light-weight, flexible and programmable, yet low-cost sensor node is one of the keys to enable Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) research and a wide range of user applications. In this paper, the Bracelet computer is presented. The system is designed to be flexible and wearable that it supports a range of daughter boards of user's choice, and ...

This chapter will discuss some of the widely used techniques for modeling flexible multibody systems (MBS). Among the topics discussed in this chapter are the floating frame of reference (FFR) formulation and the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). Discussion on the use of the CAD-based methods such as B-spline and NURBS (Non-uniform rational

"GM Suicide": Flexibility, Space, and the Injured Body
Economic Geography, 1998Abstract:While geographers have devoted much attention to the external geographies of Japanese production models, little work has been done on the internal geographies of the production process. This paper explores the relationship between lean production, space, and the body.

Global methods for simulating contacting flexible bodies
Proceedings of Computer Animation '94, 2002A model for the dynamic simulation of flexible bodies subject to nonpenetration constraints is presented. Flexible bodies are described in terms of global deformations of a rest shape. The dynamical behavior of these bodies that most closely matches the behavior of ideal continuum bodies is derived, and subsumes the results of earlier Lagrangian ...

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1973
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper discusses the current applications of urethane in flexible body parts which for 1973 cars has resulted in designs for bumper covers, bumper to body fillers, and body extensions. The flexible parts are color-keyed extensions of the body surface also matching the car body in luster and texture.

Flexible relaxation of rigid‐body docking solutions
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2007AbstractMolecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed on a set of rigid‐body docking poses, carried out over 25 protein–protein complexes. The results show that fully flexible relaxation increases the fraction of native contacts (NC) by up to 70% for certain docking poses.

Rigid Body, Flexible Body, and Micro Electromechanical Systems
2012Planar multibody systems, and revolute and prismatic joints with clearance and friction are initially modeled in this chapter with Rapson slide and Andrew’s mechanism as two examples. For modeling spatial multibody systems, the concepts of noninertial reference frame, Euler angles, and coordinate transformations, etc., are introduced.
