Robust numerical integration on curved polyhedra based on folded decompositions

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei

We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces correspond to the g ...

Analysis of double cross-slip of pyramidal I < c plus a > screw dislocations and implications for ductility in Mg alloys

William Curtin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad

Solute accelerated cross-slip of pyramidal < c + a > screw dislocations has recently been recognized as a crucial mechanism in enhancing the ductility of solid-solution Mg alloys. In pure Mg, cross-slip is ineffective owing to the energy difference between ...

Purkinje Images: Conveying Different Content for Different Luminance Adaptations in a Single Image

Mahmut Sami Arpa

Providing multiple meanings in a single piece of art has always been intriguing to both artists and observers. We present Purkinje images, which have different interpretations depending on the luminance adaptation of the observer. Finding such images is an ...

Pyramid-Based Texture Synthesis Using Local Orientation and Multidimensional Histogram Matching

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Matthieu Guerquin-Kern

One very influential method for texture synthesis is based on the steerable pyramid by alternately imposing marginal statistics on the image and the pyramid's subbands. In this work, we investigate two extensions to this framework. First, we exploit the st ...

Growth model of MOCVD polycrystalline ZnO

Christophe Ballif, Sylvie Faÿ, Sylvain Nicolay

A growth model for the low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) of polycrystalline ZnO thin films is proposed. This model is based on experimental observations of the surface morphology and crystallographic orientations of the layers at different thi ...

LPCVD GROWTH OF ZNO FOR SOLAR CELL APPLICATIONS

Christophe Ballif, Sylvie Faÿ, Sylvain Nicolay

A growth model for the low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) of polycrystalline ZnO thin films is proposed. This model is based on experimental observations of the surface morphology and crystallographic orientations of the layers at different thi ...

Fractional Laplacian Pyramids

Michaël Unser, Ricard Delgado Gonzalo, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

We provide an extension of the L-2-spline pyramid (Unser et al., 1993) using polyharmonic splines. We analytically prove that the corresponding error pyramid behaves exactly as a multi-scale Laplace operator. We use the multiresolution properties of polyha ...
