Mapping topography changes and elevation accuracies using a mobile laser scanner. Remote Sensing, volume 3, number 3, pages 587-600. doi:10.3390/rs3030587Laser scanning is a surveying technique used for mapping topography, vegetation, urban areas and infrastructure, ice, and other targets of interest. Its application on a terrestrial mobile platform is a promising method for effectively collecting three-dimensional data for complex environments and for producing model information for location-based services necessitating rapidly collected and up-to-date data. Development of mobile laser scanning (MLS) systems for such purposes is presented in this study. Different aspects of this technology were analyzed in laboratory experiments, simulations and field tests, in order to understand their effects on the ranging, intensity and point cloud data, especially in terms of point distribution and accuracy. In order to validate the performance of the developed ROAMER and AKHKA MLS systems, various three-dimensional mapping tasks were performed during an international benchmarking test, as well as in the field in numerous projects. The results showed that the proposed systems can reliably provide accurate data. It has also been shown that the various modalities of the systems allow data acquisition in numerous application scenarios and environments not previously possible. MLS improves the data output compared to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and outperforms airborne laser scanning (ALS) in ranging precision and point density. As a result, MLS is well suited to fill the gap between these two previously dominant 3D data acquisition techniques.Laserkeilaus on mittaustekniikka, jota käytetään maaston topografian kasvillisuuden, rakennettujen alueiden, infrastruktuurin, jään ja muiden kohteiden kartoitukseen. Tekniikan soveltaminen liikkuvalle alustalle on lupaava menetelmä monimuotoisten ympäristöjen tehokkaaseen kolmiulotteiseen mittaamiseen ja mallinnustiedon tuottamiseen paikkatietopalveluihin, jotka edellyttävät tiedon nopeaa hankintaa ja ajantasaisuutta. Tässä tutkimuksessa kehitettiin liikkuvia laserkeilausjärjestelmiä (MLS). Eri tekijöiden vaikutuksia etäisyys- ja intensiteettihavaintoihin, pistejakaumaan ja tarkkuuteen selvitettiin laboratoriokokein, simuloimalla ja koetöin. Tutkimuksessa kehitettyjen ROAMER ja AKHKA MLS-järjestelmien suorituskykyä kolmiulotteisen mittaustiedon tuottamiseen erilaisissa kartoitustehtävissä tutkittiin kansainvälisessä vertailututkimuksessa kaupunkitestikentän avulla, mutta lisäksi käytännön sovelluksissa useassa eri projektissa. Tutkimuksen tulokset osoittavat, että kehitetyt MLS järjestelmät tuottavat tarkkaa tietoa luotettavasti. Järjestelmien monikäyttöisyys mahdollistaa aineistonhankinnan eri sovellustapauksissa ja ympäristöissä tavalla, joka ei ole aikaisemmin ollut mahdollista. Liikkuva laserkeilaus parantaa merkittävästi mittauksen tehokkuutta maalaserkeilaukseen verrattuna, ja ylittää lentolaserkeilauksen suorituskyvyn etäisyysmittauksen tarkkuudessa ja pistetiheydessä. Liikkuva laserkeilaus tarjoaakin näitä kahta aikaisemmin vallitsevaa 3D-mittausteknologiaa hyvin täydentävän kartoitusmenetelmän

New advances in vehicular technology and automotive engineering

An automobile was seen as a simple accessory of luxury in the early years of the past century. Therefore, it was an expensive asset which none of the common citizen could afford. It was necessary to pass a long period and waiting for Henry Ford to establish the first plants with the series fabrication. This new industrial paradigm makes easy to the common American to acquire an automobile, either for running away or for working purposes. Since that date, the automotive research grown exponentially to the levels observed in the actuality. Now, the automobiles are indispensable goods; saying with other words, the automobile is a first necessity article in a wide number of aspects of living: for workers to allow them to move from their homes into their workplaces, for transportation of students, for allowing the domestic women in their home tasks, for ambulances to carry people with decease to the hospitals, for transportation of materials, and so on, the list don’t ends. The new goal pursued by the automotive industry is to provide electric vehicles at low cost and with high reliability. This commitment is justified by the oil’s peak extraction on 50s of this century and also by the necessity to reduce the emissions of CO2 to the atmosphere, as well as to reduce the needs of this even more valuable natural resource. In order to achieve this task and to improve the regular cars based on oil, the automotive industry is even more concerned on doing applied research on technology and on fundamental research of new materials. The most important idea to retain from the previous introduction is to clarify the minds of the potential readers for the direct and indirect penetration of the vehicles and the vehicular industry in the today’s life. In this sequence of ideas, this book tries not only to fill a gap by presenting fresh subjects related to the vehicular technology and to the automotive engineering but to provide guidelines for future research. This book account with valuable contributions from worldwide experts of automotive’s field. The amount and type of contributions were judiciously selected to cover a broad range of research. The reader can found the most recent and cutting-edge sources of information divided in four major groups: electronics (power, communications, optics, batteries, alternators and sensors), mechanics (suspension control, torque converters, deformation analysis, structural monitoring), materials (nanotechnology, nanocomposites, lubrificants, biodegradable, composites, structural monitoring) and manufacturing (supply chains). We are sure that you will enjoy this book and will profit with the technical and scientific contents. To finish, we are thankful to all of those who contributed to this book and who made it possible.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
