Digital slicing of 3D scenes by Fourier filtering of integral images
2008
We present a novel technique to extract depth information from 3D scenes recorded using an Integral Imaging system. The technique exploits the periodic structure of the recorded integral image to implement a Fourier-domain filtering algorithm. A proper projection of the filtered integral image permits reconstruction of different planes that constitute the 3D scene. The main feature of our method is that the Fourier-domain filtering allows the reduction of out-of-focus information, providing the InI system with real optical sectioning capacity.
Landslide Impacts on Agrigento’s Cathedral Imaged with Radar Interferometry
2013
ERS1/2 (1992–2000), ENVISAT (2002–2008) and RADARSAT1 (2003–2007) satellite data, processed with Persistent Scatterer Interferometry, are exploited to study the historic urban area of Agrigento, Italy, whose structural stability is threatened by retrogressive landslide processes. Up to 2–5mm/year of line-of-sight displacement are observed in 1992–2008 on the staircase and the left aisle of the Cathedral. Displacement acceleration to 13–15mm/year is measured in July 2006–May 2007, in the northern portion of the churchyard, in front of the left aisle. The areas moving at higher rates, located at the edge of the NW slope of Girgenti hill, correspond to those showing major structural damages. A…
Moving multi-loads problem in layered cracked beams with interlayer slip
2017
This contribution concerns the vibration response of layered cracked uniform beams with interlayer slip under moving multiple loads. Considering a linear constitutive relation between the horizontal slip and the interlaminar shear force, the Euler-Bernoulli hypothesis is assumed to hold for each layer separately. Modeling cracks as internal elastic rotational joints, related discontinuities of the response variables are treated by the theory of generalized functions. In this manner, exact eigenfunctions are derived from a characteristic equation built as determinant of 6x6 matrix, for any number of cracks. Building pertinent orthogonality conditions for the deflection eigenfunctions, the re…

Distribution of Intraocular Pressure and Its Association with Ocular Features and Cardiovascular Risk Factors
2013
Purpose To describe the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) and its association with ocular features and cardiovascular risk factors in an adult European cohort. Design Population-based, cross-sectional study. Participants This analysis was based on a Gutenberg Health Study (GHS) cohort that included 4335 eligible enrollees from among 5000 subjects who participated in the survey from 2007 through 2008. The age range was 35 to 74 years at enrollment. Methods Participants underwent a standardized protocol with a comprehensive questionnaire; ophthalmic examination including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, noncontact tonometry, fundus photography, central corneal thickness measurement, and visu…
An Overview of 5G Slicing Operational Business Models for Internet of Vehicles, Maritime IoT Applications and Connectivity Solutions
2021
Identification of ecosystems and Business Models (BM) is an important starting point for new complex system development. The definition of actor (or stakeholder) roles and their interactions (at both business and technical levels), together with target scenarios and use cases, provide essential input information for further system requirement collection and architecture specification. The powerful and flexible Fifth Generation (5G) network slicing technology, which is capable of creating virtually isolated and logically parallel networks, enables a large range of complex services and vertical applications. Although various terminologies and models have been proposed in recent years for BMs …
RELAZIONI TRA PARAMETRI LIPIDICI E MASSA VENTRICOLARE SINISTRA IN SOGGETTI CON IPERTENSIONE ARTERIOSA ESSENZIALE
2014
Dati non univoci sono riportati in letteratura sul ruolo della dislipidemia nello sviluppo dell’ipertrofia ventricolare sinistra. Scopo del nostro studio, è stato quello di valutare le potenziali associazioni dei principali parametri lipidici con la massa ventricolare sinistra (LVM) in pazienti con ipertensione essenziale (EHs). Abbiamo arruolato 724 soggetti con EH (età media 45±12 anni; 63% maschi), senza complicanze cardiovascolari e non trattati con farmaci ipolipemizzanti. In tutti i soggetti dono stati dosati la colesterolemia totale (Tchol), la trigliceridemia (TG) e il colesterolo HDL (HDLc). Il colesterolo LDL (LDLc) è stato stimato con la formula di Friedewald ed è stato calcolato…
