Analysis of Image Registration with Tangent Distance Vural, Elif (2014-01-01) The computation of the geometric transformation between a reference and a target image, known as registration or alignment, corresponds to the projection of the target image onto the transformation manifold of the reference image (the set of images generated by its geometric transformations). However, it often takes a nontrivial form such that the exact computation of projections on the manifold is difficult. The tangent distance method is an effective algorithm for solving this problem by exploiting a line...
Aerodynamic design optimization of three dimensional rocket nozzles using adjoint method Eyi, Sinan (null; 2013-09-13) A design optimization method based on three dimensional Euler equations is developed. A finite volume method is implemented to discretize the Euler equations. Newton's method is used to solve the discretized form of Euler equations. Newton's method requires the calculation of the Jacobian matrix which is the derivative of the residual vector with respect to the flux vector. Different upwind methods are used in the calculation of flux vectors. Numerical and analytical methods are utilized in the evaluation o...
Head modeling with camera auto-calibration and deformation Hassanpour, R; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan (2002-01-01) A 3D head modeling method from a sequence of 2D images is described. The views from which the input images are acquired are not calibrated., Therefore, an auto-calibration method for a sequence of images with small rotations and translation is developed. For this purpose, we have modified an already existing auto-calibration algorithm to incorporate known aspect ratio and skew values to make it applicable for small rotation around a single axis. We apply this auto-calibration technique to head (face) modeli...
Modeling Electromagnetic Scattering from Random Array of Objects by Form Invariance of Maxwell's Equations ÖZGÜN, ÖZLEM; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2015-07-24) Electromagnetic scattering from a random array of objects is modeled by using special coordinate transformations that are based on the form invariance property of Maxwell's equations. The main motivation is to perform multiple realizations of Monte Carlo simulations corresponding to different positions of objects in an efficient way by using a single mesh. This is achieved by locating transformation media within the computational domain. The proposed approach is applied to finite element method and tested b...
Design of Compact Nano-Optical Couplers Involving Dielectric Nanorods Karaosmanoglu, Bariscan; Yazar, Sirin; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2018-06-01) We present optimization and design of nano-optical couplers involving dielectric nanorods. Using tens of elements, optimal array configurations are found to produce alternative responses that can be digitized. For realistic simulations, the couplers are modeled as three-dimensional structures and analyzed via surface integral equations and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). Initial results are presented demonstrate the feasibility of compact but effective couplers with desired responses.
