Visualization of a 3D Model of Chesapeake Bay
A three-dimensional (3D) numerical hydrodynamic and water quality model (WQM) of the Chesapeake Bay and its major tributaries has been developed by the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment...
GIS Visualization Techniques in Surface Water Resource Planning
Geographic information system (GIS) computer graphic displays of surface water resource conditions provides a means for valuation-by-visualization (VBV) of alternate plans. GIS display...
Animation of Automated Space Construction
This paper presents a discussion of Three-Dimensional Computer Animation as applied to the evaluation of Lunar/Mars construction. A number of applications for this type of tool are introduced....
3D Computer Modeling & Animation for Marketing of Project Services
Three-dimensional (3D) computer modeling and animation are increasingly being utilized in the Engineering and Construction industry for the marketing of project services. Like 2D, 3D modeling...
Integration of CAD and Material Control
The purpose of this paper is to address the relationship between CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings and the material control software. Computer generated drawings have the ability to...
Coastal Sediments
This proceedings,
Nutrified Sludge
A new biological treatment process, Nutrification, enables a wastewater treatment plant to remove phosphorus from influent water at an operating and maintenance cost 35% less than that...
Measurement of Wave-Induced Turbulent Flow Structures Using Digital Image Sequence Analysis
The turbulent flow in water close to the wavy wind-stressed water surface has been examined quantitatively in a large circular wind-water tunnel with a flow visualization method using...
Airborne Remote Sensing of Breaking Waves with Implications for Gas Exchange
It is shown that airborne remote sensing can potentially relate gas mixing effects within a temporally evolving breaking wave to relectivity changes, and can identify the intensity of...
Stochastic Responses of Lifeline Systems Under Seismic Excitations
A wave superposition model is proposed to predict the field motion on the basis of the seismic records obtained from a strong motion array. By assuming the ground motion to be a homogeneous...
Inductive Loop Detection/Testing with DSP Techniques
Vehicle traffic control is recognized as an effective way to relieve mounting traffic congestion in large urban areas across the country. The most common method of vehicle detection is...
Analysis of Automatic Vehicle Identification Technology and Its Potential Application of Florida's Turnpike
The Florida Department of Transportation contracted with the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) at the University of South Florida to conduct an analysis of automatic vehicle...
Perception and Control for Automated Pavement Crack Sealing
Pavement maintenance is a major transportation engineering activity that has seen only partial mechanization and virtually no automation. Crack sealing is a typical maintenance task in...
Highway Pavement Surfaces Reconstruction by Moire Interferometry
The necessary basis for any cost-effective highway and bridge deck pavement management program is reliable, complete and up-to-date information concerning the state of pavement surface....
Testing and Feasibility of VIPS for Traffic Detection
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has asked the California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) at San Luis Obispo to investigate the effectiveness of existing...
Incident Detection Through Video Image Processing
A machine vision system for vehicle detection and traffic parameter extraction (called AUTOSCOPE) was recently developed at the University of Minnesota. Its advantages lie in its multispot...
Traffic Queue Detection Using Image-Processing
A method of queue/congestion detection is described using low cost image processing and computing hardware. It is capable of processing data from a length of roadway within a few seconds,...
Report of the DEVLONICS Video Based Traffic Detector Systems (DRS-CCATS/DTMSA)
In traffic monitoring systems many detectors are in widespread use to provide the necessary information. Image and video processing is one of the most defiant newcoming technologies in...
Stereo Vision with Scan-Line Cameras for Intrusion Detection on L.R.T. Tracks
In this paper we present a new method for the detection of intrusions by means of stereo vision in order to infer 3D information from two linear sensors. This method can be used for security...
