Simulation of the shape memory effect in a NiTi nano model system
, 2012 The shape memory behavior of a NiTi nanoparticle is analyzed by molecular dynamics simulations. After a detailed description of the equilibrium structures of the used model potential, the multi variant martensitic ground state, which depends on the ...

Biodegradable polyester-based shape memory polymers: Concepts of (supra)molecular architecturing [PDF]
, 2014 Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are capable of memorizing one or more temporary shapes and recovering to the permanent shape upon an external stimulus that is usually heat. Biodegradable polymers are an emerging family within the SMPs.

Shape Recovery Using Stochastic Heat Flow [PDF]
Procedings of the British Machine Vision Conference 2007, 2007 We consider the problem of depth estimation from multiple images based on the defocus cue. For a Gaussian defocus blur, the observations can be shown to be the solution of a deterministic but inhomogeneous diffusion process. However, the diffusion process does not sufciently address the case in which the Gaussian kernel is deformed.

Drag cancellation by added-mass pumping
, 2016 A submerged body subject to a sudden shape-change experiences large forces due to the variation of added-mass energy. While this phenomenon has been studied for single actuation events, application to sustained propulsion requires studying \textit ...

3D Shape Estimation from 2D Landmarks: A Convex Relaxation Approach
, 2015 We investigate the problem of estimating the 3D shape of an object, given a set of 2D landmarks in a single image. To alleviate the reconstruction ambiguity, a widely-used approach is to confine the unknown 3D shape within a shape space built upon ...

Recovery of the rod cross-section shape
Boletín de la Sociedad Matemática MexicanaAbstract A direct method for solving the inverse problem of determining the shape of the cross-section of a rod is proposed. The method is based on Neumann series of Bessel functions representations for solutions of Sturm-Liouville equations. The first coefficient of the representation is sufficient for the recovery of the unknown function. A
