Effect of gauge volume on the residual stress measurement using deep hole drilling technique (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Accurate evaluation of residual stress is essential if is to be taken into account in structural integrity assessments. For thick components, many non-destructive residual stress measurement techniques cannot be used since they are unable to measure...

Counter camouflage through the removal of reflectance (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a new strategy to counter camouflage by capturing (one more) additional images of same scene. The strategy is based on a technique we call 'two-light photometric stereo', which can remove disruptive reflectance from luminance imag...

The paradox of intensification (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Intensifying cities, increasing their population density, reduces overall car use with benefits to the global environment, but also increases concentrations of traffic, worsening local conditions, unless it is accompanied by constraints on car owners...
