From:Experimental Mechanics (Vol. 45, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT--Ultra-lightweight spacecraft incorporating "gossamer" structures are extremely compliant, which complicates control, design, and ground testing in full scale. One approach to model the behavior of a full-scale...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 14, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedReflective or translucent materials are a challenge to digitize in 3D. Results are better with a matt coating although objects from museum collections are often too fragile or too valuable to be treated in this way. It...

From:Aquatic Mammals (Vol. 44, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedOver four decades ago, a short paper demonstrated how photographs of free-swimming dolphins could be used to reveal scientific information about cetaceans. That paper, and a few others published during the same time...
-
From:Geodesy and Cartography (Vol. 36, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedResearch on the identification possibilities and accuracy of eye lens digital images applying the theory of photogrammetric numerical methods and of covariations functions is presented. The digital images, which are...

From:Aquatic Mammals (Vol. 40, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedStable isotope analysis (SIA) of vibrissae (whiskers) can provide time-integrated dietary information for cryptic pinniped species when alternative methods are more invasive, costly, or unavailable (Hobson et al., 1996;...

From:International Journal of Simulation Modelling (Vol. 13, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe RANSAC (RANdom SAmpling and Consensus) enables us to search within a given group of points for subgroups of points that belong to a mathematically describable object or a part of an object. The number of iterations...

From:Science (Vol. 263, Issue 5148) Peer-ReviewedEastman Kodak's decision to stop producing a type of astronomical plate could ruin many projects that depend on comparing new plates to those taken years earlier. Many astronomers argue that the plates are superior to...

From:Geodesy and Cartography (Vol. 39, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedUnmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Digital Photogrammetry is an up-to-date area mapping technology. Implemented features are low-cost, mobile and simple. UAV (fixed-wing EPP-FPV) with mounted digital camera (Canon S100)...
-
From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 11, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe glaciers of the Cordillera Blanca, Peru, are rapidly retreating and thinning as a result of climate change, altering the timing, quantity and quality of water available to downstream users. Furthermore,...

From:The Cryosphere (Vol. 13, Issue 3) Peer-Reviewed
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and structure from motion with multi-view stereo (SfM-MVS) photogrammetry are increasingly common tools for geoscience applications, but final product accuracy can be significantly...
-
From:BMC Research Notes (Vol. 11, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedObjective Within the field of biorobotics, an emerging branch is plant-inspired robotics. Some effort exists in particular towards the production of digging robots that mimic roots; for these, a deeper comprehension...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 15, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAnnual trunk increments are essential for short-term analyses of the response of trees to various factors. For instance, based on annual trunk increments, it is possible to develop and calibrate forest growth models. We...
-
From:Mathematical Problems in Engineering (Vol. 2020) Peer-ReviewedThis paper presents a controller designed via the backstepping technique, for the tracking of a reference trajectory obtained via the photogrammetric technique. The dynamic equations used to represent the motion of the...

From:The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering (Vol. 10, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedRecently, the interest of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle application in photogrammetric environment for roads observation and monitoring has increased in many countries, in Lithuania as well. The experimental object for...
