    The paper addresses the topic of the effects of hydration and temperature on the final state of an engineered barrier composed of compacted bentonite. In particular the distributions of water content and dry density are ...

  • Unsupervised feature extraction of anterior chamber OCT images for ordering and classification 

    Amil Marletti, Pablo; González, Laura; Arrondo Murillo, Elena; Salinas Almela, Cecilia; Güell, José Luis; Masoller Alonso, Cristina; Parlitz, Ulrich (Nature, 2019-02-04)
    Article
    Accés obert
    We propose an image processing method for ordering anterior chamber optical coherence tomography (OCT) images in a fully unsupervised manner. The method consists of three steps: Firstly we preprocess the images (filtering ...

  • Stabilization of clayey soil using fibre reinforcement 

    Trabelsi, Houcem; Chebbi, M; Guiras, H.; Jamei, Mehrez; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), 2018)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    The paper presents experimental and numerical investigations on crack evolution during desiccation, on unsaturated, compacted and reinforced clay using natural Alfa fibres. The effect of fibre content is investigated and ...

  • Ice formation in unsaturated frozen soils 

    Mao, Yanxin; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Gens Solé, Antonio (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), 2018)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    This paper presents a procedure for determining unfrozen water saturation in a partially saturated frozen soil (clayey silt) using bulk electrical conductivity (EC) measurements. A modification of Archie’s law is proposed ...

  • Hygroscopicity issues in powder and grain technology 

    Torres Serra, Joel; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Rodríguez Ferran, Antonio (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), 2018)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    The effect of hygroscopicity on flowability of powders and bulk solids with applications in the packaging industry is experimentally and numerically investigated. Firstly, four granular materials are tested at different ...

    Bentonite-rich clays can be used as a buffer / backfill material in deep geological repositories for nuclear waste. The prediction of the long-term performance of a buffer / backfill in such a complex environment, where ...

  • Hallucinating dense optical flow from sparse lidar for autonomous vehicles 

    Vaquero Gómez, Víctor; Sanfeliu Cortés, Alberto; Moreno-Noguer, Francesc (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    In this paper we propose a novel approach to estimate dense optical flow from sparse lidar data acquired on an autonomous vehicle. This is intended to be used as a drop-in replacement of any image-based optical flow system ...

  • Grasping unknown objects in clutter by superquadric representation 

    Makhal, Abhijit; Thomas, Federico; Pérez Gracia, Alba (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    In this paper, a quick and efficient method is presented for grasping unknown objects in clutter. The grasping method relies on real-time superquadric (SQ) representation of partial view objects and incomplete object ...
