Approaching Visual Search in Photo-Realistic Scenes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Visual search is extended from the domain of polygonal figures presented on a uniform background to scenes in which search is for a photo-realistic object in a dense, naturalistic background. Scene generation for these displays relies on a powerful solid

Investigation of the rock mass state in the near-wall part of the quarry and its stability management

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Introduction: The research is aimed to identify the vulnerable areas of quarry slopes through the creation of a stress-strain state model for the rock mass at the Vostochny quarry, East Saryoba field of the Zhi-landy Group of cupriferous sandstones, as ...

Growth and form of the mound in Gale Crater, Mars: Slope wind enhanced erosion and transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ancient sediments provide archives of climate and habitability on Mars. Gale Crater, the landing site for the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), hosts a 5-km-high sedimentary mound (Mount Sharp/Aeolis Mons). Hypotheses for mound formation include evaporitic,

Rock slope stability

open access: yes, 2019
This chapter introduces major landslide causes and triggers and outlines the principles of slope stability analysis for rock mass. It discusses the slope stability at the project site with considerations of different ground water conditions. Depending on the type of motion, slope failures in rock mass can be classified as rock topples, rock slide and ...

QuaRRi: a new methodology for rock-fall risk analysis and management in quarry exploitation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rockfall is one of the most critical geological events that can affect quarrying activities. Nevertheless, few tools are currently available to help designers and managers correctly define the risk conditions and quantify the advantages, in terms of ...

Tinjauan awal potensi ketidakstabilan cerun dan cirian fiziko-kimia tanah di Cameron Highlands, Pahang : Preliminary survey on potential slope instability and soil physico-chemical characteristic in Cameron Highlands, Pahang [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Geologically Cameron Highlands was formed by a granite batholith intruding into the older sedimentary rocks. Intrusion of this acidic igneous rock formed metasedimentary rocks and other metamorphic rocks as roof pendants.
