A dynamic target template matching method was proposed to identify railway catenary suspension movements of wind-induced vibration in wind area. Catenary positioning point was taken as the target template, which was compared with equal-sized image sequentially using the proposed matching difference. And, three-dimensional contour map of matching difference value at each sub-area was obtained, where the target pixel coordinates were determined by the minimum matching difference value. Considering the complex imaging condition, the target template was updated by the detected target image to sense the gradual change of illumination conditions like brightness and contrast. Furthermore, to eliminate detecting errors due to wind-induced camera vibration, both static and moving target templates were identified for acquiring the absolute motion of the moving target. Finally, validation test was performed with animation in PowerPoint. The calculated target displacement agrees well with theoretical motion with maximum relative error of 1.8%. And experiment application was conducted at site by analyzing the relationship between detecting displacement and wind speed. Results indicate that the proposed dynamic target template matching method can meet required engineering precision and provide an effective way for wind-vibration safety research of railway catenary system in wind area.

To obtain effective indoor moving target localization, a reliable and stable moving target localization method based on binocular stereo vision is proposed in this paper. A moving target recognition extraction algorithm, which integrates displacement pyramid Horn–Schunck (HS) optical flow, Delaunay triangulation and Otsu threshold segmentation, is presented to separate a moving target from a complex background, called the Otsu Delaunay HS (O-DHS) method. Additionally, a stereo matching algorithm based on deep matching and stereo vision is presented to obtain dense stereo matching points pairs, called stereo deep matching (S-DM). The stereo matching point pairs of the moving target were extracted with the moving target area and stereo deep matching point pairs, then the three dimensional coordinates of the points in the moving target area were reconstructed according to the principle of binocular vision’s parallel structure. Finally, the moving target was located by the centroid method. The experimental results showed that this method can better resist image noise and repeated texture, can effectively detect and separate moving targets, and can match stereo image points in repeated textured areas more accurately and stability. This method can effectively improve the effectiveness, accuracy and robustness of three-dimensional moving target coordinates.

As the largest unit capacity of nuclear power plant at present, the flow conduit of circulating water pump in EPR1750 nuclear power plant is a volute conduit, which is a cast-in-situ conceret structure with complexly gradual change cavity. Therefore, the hydraulic efficiency of circulating water pump is not only related with the design of pump leaves, but also closely related to the design of volute and the complicated spatial type of intake and outtake conduits. With the pump leaves and the intake and outtake conduits of conceret volute as the research model, based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD)and the three dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations, an analytic model suitable for computation is established to simulate the three-dimensional steady flow in the whole pumping system under different operating modes. By use of the commercial fluid-computation softer ANSYS, the distribution of basic physic quantities in the fluid field inside the pump and the conduits is obtained. The analysis and prediction of the performance of pump system are made, and the spatial type design of intake and outtake conduits is evaluated. The calculation results can be referenced to improve the design of pump systems in the similar projects.

This investigation is solely on the adaptation of a vision system algorithm to classify the processes to regulate the decision making related to the tasks and defect’s recognition. These idea stresses on the new method on vision algorithm which is focusing on the shape matching properties to classify defects occur on the product. The problem faced before that the system required to process broad data acquired from the object caused the time and efficiency slightly decrease. The propose defect detection approach combine with Region of Interest, Gaussian smoothing, Correlation and Template Matching are introduced. This application provides high computational savings and results in better recognition rate about 95.14%. The defects occur provides with information of the height which corresponds by the z-coordinate, length which corresponds by the y-coordinate and width which corresponds by the x-coordinate. This data gathered from the proposed system using dual camera for executing the three dimensional transformation.

Abstract This paper describes a method for the detection of textureless objects. Our target objects include furniture and home appliances, which have no rich textural features or characteristic shapes. Focusing on the ease of application, we define a model that represents objects in terms of three-dimensional edgels and surfaces. Object detection is performed by superimposing input data on the model. A two-stage algorithm is applied to bring out object poses. Surfaces are used to extract candidates fromthe input data, and edgels are then used to identify the pose of a target object using two-dimensional template matching. Experiments using four real furniture and home appliances were performed to show the feasibility of the proposed method.We suggest the possible applicability in occlusion and clutter conditions.
