Generally, the road surface is different from the vehicle surface in the gray-level architecture. An invariant gray-level architecture-the extremum image in the changing illumination environment is derived and a novel algorithm is presented for detecting shadows and spots. The gray-level structure that is not sensitive to the illumination is employed in the algorithm and the road surface mistaken as vehicles can be removed.展开更多

All specimens were prepared in the rolling direction. The forming limit diagrams (FLDs) of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet were determined experimentally by conducting stretch-forming tests at room temperature, 100, 200 and 300 ℃ Compared with the as-received sheet, the lowest limited strain of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet with tilted texture in the FLD increased by 79% at room temperature and 104% at 100 ℃. The texture also affected the extension of the forming limit curves (FLC) in the FLD. However, the FLCs of two kinds of sheets almost overlapped at temperature above 200 ℃. It can be concluded that the reduction of (0002) texture intensity is effective to the improvement of formability not only at room temperature but also at low-and-medium temperature. The effect of texture on FLDs becomes weak with increasing temperature.展开更多

Three kinds of AA5052/polyethylene/AA5052 sandwich specimens with different thicknesses of core materials were prepared by the hot pressing adhesive method. Then, the uniaxial tensile tests were conducted to investigate the mechanical properties of AA5052/polyethylene/ AA5052 sandwich sheets, and the stretching tests were carried out to investigate the influences of polymer core thickness on the limit dome height of the sandwich sheet. The forming limit curves for three kinds of sandwich sheets were obtained. The experimental results show that the forming limit of the AA5052/polyethylene/AA5052 sandwich sheet is higher than that of the monolithic AA5052 sheet, and it increases with increasing the thickness of polyethylene core.展开更多

The numerical results are compared with the experimental FLD and also punch's load-displacement curve of experimental samples. Experimental FLD of this study is calculated using hemispherical punch test of Hecker. Experimental FLD is converted to FLSD and imported to the Abaqus software to predict necking of samples. Numerical results for FLSD prediction were compared with experimental FLSD. Results show that ductile fracture criterion has higher accuracy for FLD and FLSD prediction of 6061 aluminum. Comparison of numerical and experimental results for force-displacement curve of punch shows that numerical results have a good agreement with experiment.展开更多

This algorithm uses the result of Freeman decomposition to divide the image into three basic categories including surface scattering, volume scattering, and double-bounce Then, the PolInSAR optimal coherence set parameters are used to finely divide each of the three basic categories into 9 categories, and the whole image is divided into 27 categories. Because both the Freeman decomposition result and optimal coherence set parameters indicate specific scattering characteristics, the whole image is merged into 16 categories based on physical meaning. At last, the Wishart cluster is employed to obtain the final classification result. To preserve the purity of scattering characteristics, pixels with similar scattering characteristics are restricted to be classified with other pixels. The final classification results effectively resolve the misclassification problem, not only the buildings can be effectively distinguished from vegetation in urban areas, but also the road is well distinguished from grass. In this paper, the E-SAR PolInSAR data of German Aerospace Center (DLR) are used to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm.展开更多

Only co-polarizaion scattering cases are considered and cross-polarizaiton (HV and VH polarization) scattering cases are neglected. Therefore, much important information must be lost. Research on full polarization SAR system is an important approach to extract more useful information from SAR imaging. In this paper, the authors derived the full polarization scattering coefficients of 2-D sea fractal surface and simulated the radar cross section (RCS) of different polarizations. They also gave the exact theoretical explanations of the fully polarization scattering characteristics of sea fractal surface, and confirmed that the depolarization can be neglected. The result is the basis of the full SAR system design and SAR imaging.展开更多

The forming limit of a metal sheet is generally given in terms of the limiting principal strains under different loading conditions and represented by the so-called FLD (forming limit diagram). In view of the difficulty to experimentally determine the forming limits, many researchers have sought to predict FLD. The formability of sheet metal has frequently been expressed by the value of strain hardening exponent and plastic anisotropy ratio. The stress-strain and hardening behaviour of a material is very important in determining its resistance to plastic instability. For these reasons, extensive test programs are often carried out in an attempt to correlate material formability with value of some mechanical properties. In this study, mechanical properties and the FLD of the AMS 5596 sheet metal was determined by using uniaxial tensile test and Marciniak's flat bottomed punch test respectively.展开更多
