The general problem of an appropriate erosion modelling can be seen in a lack of available data and in the validation and verification of the methodologies applied. The article includes two significant and challenging topics, i.e. the evaluation of the sediment amounts in a catchment and the validation of the methodologies used. The importance of the sediment estimation can be found not only in the modelling and prediction fields but also in the terms of engineering practice. The significance of erosion model validation lies in the confidence in the model itself and in the detection of its applicability and relevance. In this study, results obtained from the physically-based EROSION-3D model was compared with the sediment yield of a small agricultural catchment in central Poland. The estimation of sediment yield from the agricultural catchment has been conducted using the empirical method (USLE) coupled with a sediment delivery ratio (USLE-SDR) and verified by reservoir measurement. Firstly, the application of a physically-based EROSION-3D model has been done based on a continuous rainfall series for the selected period and afterwards the results have been compared with the sediment yield obtained by the empirical methods in order to test a model´s performance. The results of the paper point to the comparison of the results obtained by two different approaches, i.e. the physically-based and empirical methods together with the validation of the methods through the acoustic depth measurements.

The simulation of aging appearance is essential in the realistic modeling, We propose a method using existing aging image to simulate aging appearance, We establish the classification library, extract the texture feature of different types aging and save them, set the weight of the texture feature and synthesis texture according to the environment. In addition, user can specify the constrained texture mapping position optionally. This method can simulate various rusty phenomenon simultaneously. It can also be combined with physically-based method and ton spreading-based method to implement rendering of realistic 3D model rapidly.

Abstract The modeling of soil erosion processes is affected by several factors that reflect the physical-geographic conditions of the study site together with the land use linkage. The soil parameters are significant in the modeling of erosion and also runoff processes. The correct determination of a soil's parameters becomes a crucial part of the model's calibration. This paper deals with a sensitivity analysis of seven soil input parameters to the physically-based Erosion 3D model. The results show the variable influence of each soil parameter. The Erosion 3D model is very sensitive to initial soil moisture, bulk density, and erodibility.

Wrinkles make cloth simulation results more realistic. However, generating wrinkles with physically based methods usually requires a computationally expensive simulation, while geometric methods such as deforming the 3D mesh based on predefined curves need time-consuming manual design. In this paper, we extract 2D wrinkle curves from pictures of clothing and project the curves onto a 3D clothing model. Two schemes for projecting 2D curves to the 3D model are presented in the paper, including the brute force method and the acceleration method. The brute force method has excellent projection results and the acceleration method enhances the efficiency of projection process significantly. A quad tree for the 3D model is built up in the acceleration method to improve the efficiency of projection process.

Abstract. Recent studies with closed-path eddy covariance (EC) systems have indicated that the attenuation of fluctuations of water vapor concentration is dependent upon ambient relative humidity, presumably due to sorption/desorption of water molecules at the interior surface of the tube. Previous studies of EC-related tube attenuation effects have either not considered this issue at all or have only examined it superficially. Nonetheless, the attenuation of water vapor fluctuations is clearly much greater than might be expected from a passive tracer in turbulent tube flow. This study reexamines the turbulent tube flow issue for both passive and sorbing tracers with the intent of developing a physically-based semi-empirical model that describes the attenuation associated with water vapor fluctuations. Toward this end, we develop a new model of tube flow dynamics (radial profiles of the turbulent diffusivity and tube airstream velocity). We compare our new passive-tracer formulation with previous formulations in a systematic and unified way in order to assess how sensitive the passive-tracer results depend on fundamental modeling assumptions. We extend the passive tracer model to the vapor sorption/desorption case by formulating the model's wall boundary condition in terms of a physically-based semi-empirical model of the sorption/desorption vapor fluxes. Finally we synthesize all modeling and observational results into a single analytical expression that captures the effects of the mean ambient humidity and tube flow (Reynolds number) on tube attenuation.

The testing of a model performance is important and is also a challenging part of scientific work. In this paper, the results of the physically-based EROSION-3D (Jürgen Schmidt, Berlin, Germany) model were compared with trapped sediments in a small reservoir. The model was applied to simulate runoff-erosion processes in the Svacenický Creek catchment in the western part of the Slovak Republic. The model is sufficient to identify the areas vulnerable to erosion and deposition within the catchment. The volume of sediments was measured by a bathymetric field survey during three terrain journeys (in 2015, 2016, and 2017). The results of the model point to an underestimation of the actual processes by 30% to 80%. The initial soil moisture played an important role, and the results also revealed that rainfall events are able to erode and contribute to a significant part of sediments.
