Design of Civil Engineering Frame Structures Using a Monomial/Newton Hybrid Method

This paper presents an application of a monomial approximation method for solving systems of nonlinear equations to the design of civil engineering frame structures. This is accomplished by solving a set of equations representing the state known as fully-stressed design, where each member of the structure is stressed to the maximum safe allowable level under at least one of the loading conditions acting on it. The monomial approximation method is based on the process of condensation, which has its origin in geometric programming theory. A monomial/Newton hybrid method is presented which permits some of the design variables to be free in sign, while others are strictly positive. This hybrid method is well suited to the structural design application since some variables are naturally positive and others are naturally free. The proposed method is compared to the most commonly used fully-stressed design method in practice. The hybrid method is shown to find solutions that the conventional method cannot find, while doing so with less computational effort. The impact of this approach on the activity of structural design is discussed.

中国医学物理学的过去、现在与未来

医学物理（medical physics，MP）是把物理学的原理和方法应用于人类疾病的预防、诊断、治疗和保健的一门交叉学科，是物理学与医学实践相结合的一门独立的分支学科．它是研究人类疾病诊、治过程中的物理现象，并用物理方法表达这种现象．医学物理包括放射肿瘤物理（rsdiation oncdogy physics，ROP）、医学影像物理（medical imaong physics，MIP）、核医学物理（nuclear medicine physics，NMP），其他非电离辐射如核磁、超声、微波、射频、激光等物理因子在医学中的应用，和保健物理（heath physics，HP）等分支内容．医学物理学和生物医学工程学（biomedical engineefing，BME）是一对栾生的兄弟学科，分别从物理学的角度（前者）和工程学的角度（后者）研究人类疾病诊断、治疗及健康保健过程中的生命现象和采取相应的物理措施和工程手段。医学物理学与物理医学（physical medicine，PM）是完全两个不同的概念，前者是物理学的分支，后者是医学的分支．自上世纪60年代以来，中国医学物理学有了很大的进展，推动了中国现代放射肿瘤学、核医学和医学影像学的发展；成立了自己的学术组织，并成为国际医学物理组织（IOMP）的成员国组织．随着中国逐步奔入小康社会，为适应人民大众对健康的需求和现代化医院发展的需要，中国医学物理应该加快发展．     

Three-dimensional photofabrication with femtosecond lasers for applications in photonics and biomedicine

A status report on rapidly advancing femtosecond laser technology, three-dimensional (3D) microstructuring by multiphoton illumination technique, is given. Taking its origin from multiphoton microscopy, this technique is now becoming an important microfabrication tool. In our work we apply near-infrared Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser pulses (at 800/780 nm) for 3D material processing. When tightly focused into the volume of a photosensitive material (or photoresist), they initiate 2PP process by, for example, transferring liquid into the solid state. This allows the fabrication of any computer generated 3D structure by direct laser “recording” into the volume of photosensitive material. 2PP of photosensitive materials irradiated by femtosecond laser pulses is now considered as enabling technology for the fabrication of 3D photonic crystals and photonic crystal templates. In particular, 2PP allows one to introduce defects at any desired locations, which is crucial for the practical applications. Recently, we studied possible applications of 2PP technique in biomedicine. 2PP is a very interesting technique for the fabrication of drug delivery systems, scaffolds for tissue engineering, and medical implants. These and other biomedical applications of 2PP will be reviewed.

On the efficient application of weighted essentially nonoscillatory scheme

In this paper, the efficient application of high‐order weighted essentially nonoscillatory (WENO) reconstruction to the subsonic and transonic engineering problems is studied. On the basis of the physical considerations, two techniques are proposed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of the WENO reconstruction. First, it is observed that the WENO scheme using characteristic variable has better accuracy and convergence speed than the scheme using primitive variable. For engineering problems with shock of moderate amplitude, on the basis of the Rankine–Hugoniot conditions, a simplified characteristic‐variable‐based WENO is developed. The simplified version significantly reduces the cost overhead without sacrificing the shock‐capturing capability. Second, in this work, it is found for viscous case that it is better to include the viscous effect. On the basis of a simple analysis, the viscous correction to the parameter ε in the WENO reconstruction is proposed. Numerical results indicate, with the proposed simplified characteristic‐variable‐based reconstruction and the viscous correction, that the nonlinear WENO interpolation is sharply activated in the region of shock jump, whereas in the shockless area, the WENO interpolation weights are tuned towards the designed optimal value for better accuracy. Compared with the original characteristic‐variable‐based WENO, the current implementation has similar accuracy and reduced cost. At the same time, compared with the primitive variable‐based WENO, better accuracy and convergence speed are obtained at marginal cost overhead. Several practical cases are calculated to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the current methodology. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
