The inverse finite element method (iFEM) is a mechanics-based algorithm for deformed-
shape estimation of structures. In this paper, an enhanced inverse beam element named …

Visualization and measurement for civil structure have been a constant field of research.
Typically, 3-D measurement systems are static instruments that offer low degrees of flexible …

Bridge cranes used for vertical lifting and horizontal transportation of heavy objects are
widely used in engineering. Based on the Hamilton principle, a dynamic model of a bridge …

Automated measurement of the relative pose between a crane borne curtain wall module
and its installation location on the side face of a high-rise building can be applied to …

Traditional calibration technology has been widely used in measurement and monitoring;
however, there are limitations of poor calibration accuracy, which can not meet the accuracy …

Abnormal swing angle detection of bucket grabs is crucial for efficient harbor operations. In
this study, we develop a practically convenient swing angle detection method for crane …

Tracking the trajectory of the load carried by the rotary crane is an important problem that
allows reducing the possibility of its damage by hitting an obstacle in its working area. On …

During the overhead crane, due to the complex background and large image size, the direct
processing algorithm usually leads to time-consuming operation and difficult to achieve …

This article presents a method for three-dimensional reconstruction based on line laser-
assisted virtual stereovision, elaborating on the equipment selection strategy for virtual …

To reduce the number of detectors used in conventional binocular stereo cameras, while
improving the measurement accuracy and compactness of the system, this paper proposes …
