As part of the work, a measuring system is presented that allows collecting and recording vehicle motion parameters. To build the system, an inertial navigation module was used, consisting of two-axis accelerometers and gyroscopes made in MEMS technology. The tests were carried out and calculation methods were developed to allow the collected data to be referenced, to a point in the three-dimensional space, in order to determine the trajectory of the vehicle's movement. The built-in measuring system uses three types of sensors: accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer. Each of these sensors allows the measurement of the physical size in three orthogonal axes of the Cartesian coordinate system. In addition, the work uses a satellite navigation module (GPS), as a reference on the "macro" scale (coordinate system related to the center of the globe with a radius of about 6371 km) for the inertial updating module (INS / IMU), enabling accurate measurement in the "micro" scale (the coordinate system associated with the starting point of the traffic for the route, the length of which does not exceed several hundred meters). The article presents an overview of available measuring sensors with special consideration of the parameters of selected sensors and errors introduced into the measurement system.

Traditional Hough circle detection algorithm usually determines the center and radius of a circle by mapping points in cartesian coordinate system to polar coordinate system. Since it accumulates in the three-dimensional space, it requires more calculation consumption. In this paper, we solve the problem of high time complexity of Hough algorithm in judging circle radius and circle center from two aspects of circle angle and circle radius according to the geometric features of quasi-circles. A large number of experiments show that, compared with the traditional algorithm, this algorithm can not only identify quasi-circles, but also improve the detection success rate of circles by about 10%, with efficient running speed, and obtain good experimental results in the detection of craters.

This paper discusses the large-displacement flexural-torsional behavior of a straight elastic beam with uniform circular cross-section subject to arbitrary terminal bending and twisting moments. The beam is assumed to be free from any kinematic constraints at both ends. The equilibrium equation is solved analytically with the full expression for curvature to obtain the deformed configuration in a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. The results show the influence of the terminal moments on the beam’s deflected configuration.

We previously reported that the kinematics of reaching movements reflect the superimposition of two separate control mechanisms specifying the hand's spatial trajectory and its final equilibrium position. We now asked whether the brain maintains separate representations of the spatial goals for planning hand trajectory and final position. One group of subjects learned a 30° visuomotor rotation about the hand's starting point while performing a movement reversal task (“slicing”) in which they reversed direction at one target and terminated movement at another. This task required accuracy in acquiring a target mid-movement. A second group adapted while moving to—and stabilizing at—a single target (“reaching”). This task required accuracy in specifying an intended final position. We examined how learning in the two tasks generalized both to movements made from untrained initial positions and to movements directed toward untrained targets. Shifting initial hand position had differential effects on the location of reversals and final positions: Trajectory directions remained unchanged and reversal locations were displaced in slicing whereas final positions of both reaches and slices were relatively unchanged. Generalization across directions in slicing was consistent with a hand-centered representation of desired reversal point as demonstrated previously for this task whereas the distributions of final positions were consistent with an eye-centered representation as found previously in studies of pointing in three-dimensional space. Our findings indicate that the intended trajectory and final position are represented in different coordinate frames, reconciling previous conflicting claims of hand-centered (vectorial) and eye-centered representations in reach planning.

Tennis is a very elegant sport, with a strong sense of competitiveness and appreciation, which has gained more and more attentions in our country, and it tends to be a fashion. This project is to achieve the measurement of tennis batting motion attitude in three dimensional space using a combination of the three-axis MEMS(Micro-electromechanical Systems) sensors, and make research on the principle of measurement system, composition and data acquisition. Body posture measurement system is to measure the attitude measurement in human movement, it can be applied to study the movement posture or to meet the requirements of position control, which provides theoretical foundation for scientific training and prevention of sports injury and also plays a significant and instructional role in improving the training levels of tennis playing and generalizing nationwide fitness campaign.

In this paper, we extend the theory of the [Formula: see text]-deformed quantum mechanics in one dimension[Formula: see text] into three-dimensional case. We relate the [Formula: see text]-deformed quantum theory to the quantum theory in a curved space. We discuss the diagonal metric based on [Formula: see text]-addition in the Cartesian coordinate system and core radius of neutron star. We also discuss the diagonal metric based on [Formula: see text]-addition in the spherical coordinate system and [Formula: see text]-deformed Heisenberg atom model.

Airspace domain may be represented by a time-space consisting of a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system and time as the fourth dimension. A coordinate system provides a scheme for locating points given its coordinates and vice versa. The choice of coordinate system is important, as it transforms data to geometric representation. Visualization of the three and more dimensional data on the two-dimensional drawing - computer monitor is usually done by projection, which often can restrict the amount of information presented at a time. Using the parallel coordinate system is one of possibilities to present multidimensional data. The aim of this article is to describe basics of parallel coordinate system and to investigate lines and their characteristics in time-space.


Free-flying houseflies have been filmed simultaneously from two sides. The orientation of the flies’ body axes in three-dimensional space can be seen on the films. A method is presented for the reconstruction of the flies’ movements in a fly-centred coordinate system, relative to an external coordinate system and relative to the airstream. The flies are regarded as three-dimensionally rigid bodies. They move with respect to the six degrees of freedom they thus possess. The analysis of the organization of the flight motor from the kinematic data leads to the following conclusions: the sideways movements can, at least qualitatively, be explained by taking into account the sideways forces resulting from rolling the body about the long axis and the influence of inertia. Thus, the force vector generated by the flight motor is most probably located in the fly’s midsagittal plane. The direction of this vector can be varied by the fly in a restricted range only. In contrast, the direction of the torque vector can be freely adjusted by the fly. No coupling between the motor force and the torques is indicated. Changes of flight direction may be explained by changes in the orientation of the body axes: straight flight at an angle of sideslip differing from zero is due to rolling. Sideways motion during the banked turns as well as the decrease of translation velocity observed in curves are a consequence of the inertial forces and rolling. The results are discussed with reference to studies about the aerodynamic performance of insects and the constraints for aerial pursuit.

The electric dipole–magnetic dipole polarizability tensor κ′, introduced to interpret the optical activity of chiral molecules, has been expressed in terms of a series of density functions kαβ′, which can be integrated all over the three-dimensional space to evaluate components καβ′ and trace καα′. A computational approach to kαβ′, based on frequency-dependent electronic current densities induced by monochromatic light shining on a probe molecule, has been developed. The dependence of kαβ′ on the origin of the coordinate system has been investigated in connection with the corresponding change of καβ′. It is shown that only the trace kαα′ of the density function defined via dynamic current density evaluated using the continuous translation of the origin of the coordinate system is invariant of the origin. Accordingly, this function is recommended as a tool that is quite useful for determining the molecular domains that determine optical activity to a major extent. A series of computations on the hydrogen peroxide molecule, for a number of different HO–OH dihedral angles, is shown to provide a pictorial documentation of the proposed method.

AbstractThe worldwide increasing population density in major urban centres poses great challenges for transportation systems. Air taxi services could be a solution to this growing problem by bringing the existing transportation system to the three dimensional space. This paper analyzes the challenges and requirements of developing a vertiport intended for the use of air taxis at Cologne Bonn Airport. This research was conducted with the information available at the time of writing, for which a basis scenario is defined for the Cologne Bonn Airport where important aspects of an air taxi service are determined such as passenger demand and possible vehicles. The main aspects analysed were the requirements on the vertiport infrastructure and its location, as well as the requirements on passenger processing. For the defined basis scenario, results show that the preferential locations to develop a vertiport at Cologne Bonn Airport are the roof top levels of parking garages P2 and P3. Furthermore, it is shown that given the estimated passenger demand, a very high utilization factor of the defined infrastructure is to be expected. This paper provides a starting point for the development of an air taxi service at Cologne Bonn Airport. Further research is needed in key issues such as the financial aspects of an air taxi service, its integration into the current operating scenario of the Cologne Bonn Airport and the approval process for an air taxi service and the vertiport itself.
