This paper provides a review of papers published in the Journal of Engineering Design from
2007 to 2008. Included are the different perspectives on key challenges existing within, and …

Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills are among the nation's largest emitters of methane, a
key greenhouse gas, and there is considerable interest in quantifying the surficial methane …

Surface reconstruction from cross cuts usually requires curve reconstruction from planar
noisy point samples. The output curves must form a possibly disconnected 1-manifold for the …

The article focuses on the computational methods to support sketching, reverse engineering
and optimization of shapes. For engineering designers, the shape is defined by technical …

A means for constructing a free-form motion in three dimensions is given. A sparse
sequence of prescribed poses is used to guide the motion, and some of these can also be …

We present a novel algorithm to reconstruct curves with self-intersections and multiple parts
from unorganized strip-shaped points, which may have different local shape scales and …

This paper proposes a method for structural enhancement of a 3D sampled curve. The curve
is assumed to be organized, but corrupted with low frequency noise. The proposed method …

Determining hydro-mechanical properties of porous materials present a challenge because
they exhibit a more complex behaviour than their continuous counterparts. The geometrical …

The characterization of mechanical and transport phenomena of porous media is of high
relevance in bio-mechanics, geophysics, manufacturing, environmental sciences, among …
