Accuracy assessment of LiDAR point cloud geo-referencing

Williams, Keith E. (2012-06-01)

Three-dimensional laser scanning has revolutionized spatial data acquisition and can be completed from a variety of platforms including airborne (ALS), mobile (MLS), and static terrestrial (TLS) laser scanning. MLS is a ...
Amplification of solitary waves along a vertical wall

Li, Wenwen (2012-11-16)

Reflection of an obliquely incident solitary wave at a vertical wall is studied experimentally in the laboratory wave tank. Precision measurements of water-surface variations are achieved with the aid of laser-induced fl ...
Stochastic analysis of the nonlinear response transition behavior of an ocean system

Yuk, Dongjun (2001-02-16)

The nonlinear response of an ocean system subjected to random excitations can exhibit very complex dynamic behaviors including jump phenomena and coexistence of attractors. In this study, the stochastic system response b ...
