A new technique for 3D modeling of water surfaces using a Geiger mode receiver
… and quickly (i.e in real time) create a digital surface model of a water surface using bathymetric lidar when presented with water turbidity. Accurate and consistent modeling of the water surface is required in order to correct for the surface’s volatility when imaging the sea floor. However, …

Effect of Dual Tasking On Walking Over Even and Uneven Surfaces in Functionally Independent Community Older Adults
… and concurrently performing a dual task on even surfaces, to date the effects of dual tasking while walking on uneven surfaces commonly found in the community has received less attention. Thus, we sought to test the hypothesis that an incremental decrement in gait parameters will be observed, …

The Thickness of the Drift in North Dakota with Refrence to the Bedrock Formation
… features, however, in other areas where the surface of the bedrock has eroded valleys the drift is relatively thick without showing any change in altitude of the topography. In general, the drift thickness appears to vary with the physiographic divisions of the state. </p><p> The contoured …

Statistical control and experimental design for edge bead reduction in laminating process
… fed into customers' filling machines due to the uneven surface. To address this problem, a model with process parameters and quality characteristics was built to define the lamination. Based on this model, the capability of measurement system was verified and current process capability was …

Imaging and mitigating karst features
<p>"Over the last three years, a comprehensive subsurface investigation that combines both conventional and geophysical techniques has been conducted near Springfield in southwest Missouri, United States. This study, which forms part of the comprehensive subsurface investigation, aimed to (1) image …

Calculating Staircase Slope from a Single Image
… are difficult to model because of their uneven surface and various depth aspects. Coupling this need is a variety of ways to reach this goal. Unfortunately, many such methods rely upon specialized sensory equipment, multiple calibrated cameras, or other such impractical setups. Here, we …

Numerical simulations on passenger vehicles equipped with a cover under transportation
… wrapping is applied to the car, to resemble the uneven surface of the cover. The third case consists on generating a geometry that resembles the cover alone, by means of morphing the original model. The last case allows to simulate two geometries at the same time (cover and vehicle) and the flow …

Interactions between Atmospheric Deep Convection and the Surrounding Environment
… scaling of precipitation extremes with surface specific humidity, providing a foundation for its use as a baseline prediction for changes in extreme rainfall in a warming world. Second, I focus on explaining observations that suggest a link between high atmospheric aerosol concentrations …

A study of the effects of sensory state on rhesus monkey postural control
… in daily activities, such as walking on an uneven surface at night, turning one's head, or attempting to stand on a moving surface, can prove extremely challenging. Unfortunately, many vestibular-loss sufferers are left with limited treatment options and can become permanently debilitated. …

Millipede-Inspired Locomotion for Rumen Monitoring through Remotely Operated Vehicle
… cost-of-transport, and ability to navigate uneven surface terrains. In order to operate in the rumen environment, the locomotion mechanism should have the ability to handle large frictional and viscous forces in the direction of motion performing submerged burrowing-like action. The rumen …

A stratigraphical, sedimentologial and palaeoenvironmental analysis of holocene and present-day coastal sedimentation: Wigtown Bay, S.W. Scotland
… of rivers and rose to flood the hollows in the uneven surface of the fluvio-glacial deposits flanking the estuary.Accumulation of low tidal-flat deposits gave way to upper tidal-flat and marsh deposits as the transgression diminished. The transgressive event was shortlived. Sediments were …

Cattle manure characteristics in relation to manure accumulation period and seasonal impacts in the intermountain west
… with the first collection technique such as an uneven surface of the pen. The second technique applied land surveying one singular pen for a 10- and 20-day manure accumulation period to attempt to only collect newly deposited manure over the accumulation period. The BMP data is expressed as the …

Proprioception, jumping capacity and agility in beach versus indoor volleyball players
… training requires movement on an unstable or uneven surface. Although proprioceptive exercises are commonly integrated into sports rehabilitation, there is a lack of high-quality evidence proving that proprioception can be trained. Maximal vertical jumping, lateral cutting sprints and diving …

By way of the highway: a collection of towers
… landscape; a celestial game of jax played on an uneven surface. The other depended on a complete and unyielding imposition on the landscape where every thing, place or building was measured or monitored. As a result cities would emerge, each with their own rational imposition, with no …
