Linguistic Interpretation of Mathematical Morphology [PDF]
Mathematical Morphology is a theory based on geometry, algebra, topology and set theory, with strong application to digital image processing. This theory is characterized by two basic operators: dilation and erosion. In this work we redefine these operators based on compensatory fuzzy logic using a linguistic definition, compatible with previous ...

Morphological features of three defect types in metal additive manufacturing (AM)—lack of fusion, keyhole, and gas‐entrapped pores—are statistically characterized using best‐fit distributions evaluated via coefficient‐of‐determination, Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, and quantile–quantile plots.

This study presents a 3D representative volume element‐based simulation approach to predict mesoscopic residual stress and strain fields in silicon solid solution‐strengthened ductile cast iron. By modeling phase transformation kinetics with an enhanced Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, the effects of varying cooling rates on residual stresses are ...

Nonlocal and multivariate mathematical morphology [PDF]
The generalization of mathematical morphology to multivariate images is addressed in this paper. The proposed approach is fully unsupervised and consists in constructing a complete lattice from an image as a rank transformation together with a learned ordering of vectors. This unsupervised ordering of vectors relies on three steps: dictionary learning,

Toughness of Confined Auxetic Foams
Auxetic (negative Poisson's ratio) materials offer benefits such as impact mitigation, thermal insulation, vibration damping, and reduced shear strain, although their fracture mechanics are largely unexplored. This study investigates damage initiation and propagation in confined re‐entrant auxetic foams from polyurethane via experimental ...

Thermally Induced Gelling Systems Based on Patchy Polymeric Micelles
A novel strategy to design thermally induced gelling systems with tunable material properties is reported. Polymeric mixed‐shell micelles displaying multiple thermosensitive patchy domains formed hydrogels by assembling into well‐entangled worm‐like network structures upon heating to body temperature. The patchy micelle design significantly affects the

Mineral granulometric analysis using mathematical morphology
The most accurate granulometric analysis techniques present some disadvantages, mainly related with high cost of acquisition and maintenance of sophisticated devices. On the other hand, cheaper systems are generally characterized by low precision or long
