Gantry cranes load and unload containers from container ships. To ensure safety and operation, the deflection of their main beams under load should be analyzed. This deflection depends on the weight of the loaded container ...

In terms of high precision requested deformation analyses, evaluating laser scan data requires the exact knowledge of the functional and stochastic model. If this is not given, a parameter estimation leads to insufficient ...

Terrestrial laser scanning was used for deformation monitoring of structures and geoscientific objects already at an early stage of its employment for engineering geodetic tasks. This paper gives an overview on current ...
