Topics in Magnetohydrodynamic Topology, Reconnection and Stability Theory

Topics in Magnetohydrodynamic Topology, Reconnection and Stability Theory

The book presents an advanced but accessible overview of some of the most important sub-branches of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): stability theory, magnetic topology, relaxation theory and magnetic reconnection. Although each of these subjects is often treated separately, in practical MHD applications they are normally inseparable. MHD is a highly active field of research.The book is written for ...

Advanced Procrustes Analysis Models in Photogrammetric Computer Vision

Advanced Procrustes Analysis Models in Photogrammetric Computer Vision

This book gives a comprehensive view of the developed procrustes models, including the isotropic, the generalized and the anisotropic variants. These represent original tools to perform, among others, the bundle block adjustment and the global registration of multiple 3D LiDAR point clouds. Moreover, the book also reports the recently derived total least squares solution of the anisotropic Proc...
