A Survey of Methods for Constructing 3D Urban Models From Point Clouds

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
The survey outlines a general process for constructing 3D models from point clouds and categorizes the methods based on their use of templates, basic surface primitives, hybrid approaches, or linear primitives. Additionally, the survey reviews the datasets and benchmarks that are essential for testing and training the developed methods.

Costs and Benefits Data Mapping of BIM Laser Scan Integration: A Case Study in Australia

, 2021
Building information modelling (BIM) has been increasingly popular in the utility industry due to substantial benefits of cost and time savings, and improved performance and asset management during the operations and maintenance (O&M) phase.

Attractiveness of Melon Genotypes to Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Mediated by Foliar Morphological and Biochemical Traits

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study identifies melon genotypes resistant to Bemisia tabaci by integrating morphological and biochemical leaf traits. Using free‐choice and no‐choice assays, we demonstrate that resistance is primarily mediated by antixenosis. Genotypes CNPH 11‐1071‐43, CNPH 06‐1047‐343, CNPH 13‐1076, and BG MEL 16 significantly reduced whitefly settling and ...

Cloud-to-BIM-to-FEM: Structural simulation with accurate historic BIM from laser scans

Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 2015
Abstract The complexity of historic constructions, with irregular geometry, inhomogeneous materials, variable morphology, alterations and damages, poses numerous challenges in the digital modeling and simulation of structural performances under different types of actions.

Phosphorylation of BigH1 regulates its expression pattern and promotes embryonic development

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Phosphorylation is a key regulator of the linker histone variant BigH1 during Drosophila embryogenesis. We reveal that N‐terminal phosphorylation promotes the timely removal of BigH1 from chromatin. In contrast, C‐terminal phosphorylation supports early nuclear divisions and embryonic viability.

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Determining bismuth content in GaAsBi alloys by energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy: A case study with multiple sets of k*‐factors for analytical transmission electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring the bismuth (Bi) content of ternary gallium arsenide bismuthide (GaAsBi) alloys is important because it sensitively influences their bandgap, and Bi is known to segregate vertically to the surface and sometimes also laterally during growth, so elemental distribution maps need to be quantified.

SARS‐CoV‐2 targets mitochondria, exacerbating COVID‐19 pneumonia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Following entry into airway epithelial cells (AECs), SARS‐CoV‐2 releases its single‐stranded RNA into the cytoplasm, where it is translated into viral proteins. Several of these viral proteins localize to mitochondria and interact with key mitochondrial components.
