The accuracy of interferometric parameters of InSAR plays a significant role in precise digital elevation model (DEM). However, interferometric parameters are traditionally calculated jointly, making them difficult to decompose precisely. It is proposed that an interferometric calibration method based on independent parameter decomposition(IPD) by the authors.Firstly, the parameters related to the interferometric SAR measurement are determined based on the three-dimensional reconstruction model. Secondly, the sensitivity of interferometric parameters is quantitatively analyzed after the geometric parameters are completely decomposed. Finally, each interferometric parameter is calculated based on IPD and interferometric calibration model is established. Weinan of Shanxi Province is taken as an example area. Four TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X image pairs are used to carry out the interferometric calibration experiment. The results show that the elevation accuracy of all interferometric results are less than 2.54 m for this experimental data after interferometric calibration. Furthermore, the proposed method can obtain the accuracy of DEM products less than 1.21 m in the flat area and 3.11 m in the mountain area respectively.That results can prove the correctiveness and effectiveness of the proposed IPD based interferometric calibration method. The results could provide a technical basis for topographic mapping of 1:25 000 scale in the flat area and mountain area.

In order to fabricate steel foams with high porosity,uniform pore structure and high-performance, steel foams with different porosities and cell sizes were fabricated by a sintering-dissolution process using 316L stainless steel powder as raw material and CaCl2 as pore forming agent, and steel foam-sandwich panels were fabricated by physical bonding. Three-point bending tests were carried out to explore the bending performance of steel foam and steel foam-sandwich panels. The influence of the porosity and cell size of foam sample on the bending load was analyzed and discussed,and the bending strength of steel foam -sandwich panel was compared with steel foam sample. The results show that the bending deformation of steel foam is started at the weakest cell wall firstly,then the cracks are initiated and propagated,eventually the macroscopic fracture is caused. For steel foam-sandwich panels,the maximum load is reduced from 2345 N to 1254 N when the porosity is increased from 69.4% to 82.5%,whereas the maximum bending load of steel foam-sandwich panels is increased by 15%-43% with the same porosity. When the cell size is increased from 1.9 mm to 3.9 mm and the porosity is about 73%,the maximum bending load is reduced from 2070 N to 1528 N,whereas the maximum bending load of steel foam-sandwich panels is increased by 15%-28% with the same pore size. Under the same porosity and pore size,the steel foam-sandwich panels have excellent resistance to bending at least 15% higher than the steel foam.

With the rapid development of computer graphics, distributed-computing and Internet, it is possible to achieve Internet-based virtual city. This paper dwells on the method of the terrain and its feature modeling and complex entity modeling in the virtual city. Then, discusses the method for Internet-based virtual city 3D visualization and the design of the Browser/Server architecture of the system of virtual city in the network environment. Finally, Java and Java 3D are used to show an experiment example, and the related conclusion about Internet-based virtual city 3D displaying and the client-side interactive operation is given.

On the basis of the study on road elements and the existing three-dimensional road data models, this paper puts forward the transect-based road modeling, resolves the modeling of the simplest road with two road transects, and fulfils the visualization of the road. OpenGL is applied as the tool of visualization. The map texture technology, LOD algorithm and dynamic multi-differentiating texture technology are of benefit to the construction of 3D road GIS, and improve the speed of roaming and effective visualization. This paper also disusses the combination of 2D digitall road map and 3D road scene, and the dynamic response between them. Finally, on the basis of the research on the transect-based road model, this paper develops the three-dimensional road geographic information system called virtual road (VRoad), which not only supplies road designers with a set of tool which can turn the designed 2D road data into 3D road and the high road assistant function area in computer, but also supplies the road management with a set of tool which can realize the road real time and interactive roaming, high-efficiency management.
