Stochastic Exploration of Ambiguities for Nonrigid Shape Recovery [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2013
Recovering the 3D shape of deformable surfaces from single images is known to be a highly ambiguous problem because many different shapes may have very similar projections. This is commonly addressed by restricting the set of possible shapes to linear combinations of deformation modes and by imposing additional geometric constraints.

Development of thermoplastic epoxy filaments with shape memory properties

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2021
In this paper, an epoxy resin mixture composed of epoxy and phenol monomers is used to prepare thermoplastic epoxy polymer (EP-TP) through a polymerization reaction and shape memory thermoplastic epoxy filament (SMEF-TP) was successfully developed for ...

A Generalized Spatial Measure for Resilience of Microbial Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The emergent property of resilience is the ability of a system to return to an original state after a disturbance. Resilience may be used as an early warning system for significant or irreversible community transition; that is, a community with ...

3D shape recovery using a deformable model [PDF]

open access: yesImage and Vision Computing, 1994
Abstract This paper describes a method for recovering the 3D shape of a moving object from a sequence of images. While following the motion of the object a 3D surface model, initialized to be spherical, progressively deforms under the action of simulated external forces driving its profile towards the object profile extracted from the image.

Analytical and Experimental Analysis of the Shape Recovery Behavior of Continuous Fiber Reinforced Shape Memory Polymer

open access: yesDiyala Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2023
Shape memory polymer (SMP) signify a new category of responsive polymers characterized by their capability to undergo significant shape changes and then revert to their initial shape when exposed to specific stimuli.

End-to-end Recovery of Human Shape and Pose

open access: yes, 2018
We describe Human Mesh Recovery (HMR), an end-to-end framework for reconstructing a full 3D mesh of a human body from a single RGB image. In contrast to most current methods that compute 2D or 3D joint locations, we produce a richer and more useful mesh ...

Shaping plasticity to enhance recovery after injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The past decade of neuroscience research has provided considerable evidence that the adult brain can undergo substantial reorganization following injury. For example, following an ischemic lesion, such as occurs following a stroke, there is a cascade of molecular, genetic, physiological and anatomical events that allows the remaining structures in the ...

Tube shape selection for heat recovery from particle-laden exhaust gas streams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Heat recovery from exhaust gas streams is applicable to a wide variety of industries. Two problems encountered in exhaust gas heat recovery are: the high heat transfer resistance of gases and the presence of entrained particulate matter, which can limit ...

New constraints on data-closeness and needle map consistency for shape-from-shading [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This paper makes two contributions to the problem of needle-map recovery using shape-from-shading. First, we provide a geometric update procedure which allows the image irradiance equation to be satisfied as a hard constraint.

Role of Nickel Content in One-Way and Two-Way Shape Recovery in Binary Ti-Ni Alloys

open access: yesMetals, 2021
The shape recovery characteristics of titanium nickelide with an Ni content of 50.0 at % and 50.7 at % were studied in a wide range of structures obtained as a result of cold drawing with an accumulated true strain of e = 0.52 and subsequent annealing in
