A modified three dimensional recursive search （3DRS） algorithm is used in order to obtain motion information accurately. A motion feature descriptor （MFD） is designed to describe motion feature of each block in a picture based on motion intensity, motion in occlusion areas, and motion correlation among neighbouring blocks. Then, a fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm （FCM） is implemented based on those MFDs so as to segment moving objects. Moreover, a new parameter named as gathering degree is used to distinguish foreground moving objects and background motion. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The effects of uniform suction and injection on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics are numerically studied by using an implicit finite difference method. It is found that dual solutions exist when the plate and the free stream move in the opposite directions. The results indicate that suction delays the boundary layer separation, while injection accelerates it.展开更多

Using the diagram multiplication method, we introduce an analytical formula for a novel damage-identification indicator, namely the diff erence of rotational-angle influence linescurvature(DRAIL-C). If the initial stiff ness of the simply supported beam is known, the analytical formula can be effectively used to determine the extent of damage under certain circumstances. We determined the effectiveness and anti-noise performance of this new damage-identification method using numerical examples of a simply supported beam, a simply supported hollow-slab bridge, and a simply supported truss bridge. The results show that the DRAIL-C is directly proportional to the moving concentrated load and inversely proportional to the distance between the bridge support and the concentrated load and the distance between the damaged truss girder and the angle measuring points. The DRAIL-C indicator is more sensitive to the damage in a steel-truss-bridge bottom chord than it is to the other elements.展开更多
