Molecular dynamics simulation on flow behavior of nanofluids between flat plates under shear flow condition

Molecular dynamic model of nanofluid between flat plates under shear flow conditions was built. The nanofluid model consisted of 12 spherical copper nanoparticles with each particle diameter of 4 nm and argon atoms as base liquid. The Lennard–Jones (LJ) potential function was adopted to deal with the interactions between atoms. Thus, the motion states of nanoparticles during the process of flowing were obtained and the flow behaviors of nanofluid between flat plates at different moments could be analyzed. The simulation results showed that an absorption layer of argon atoms existed surrounding each nanoparticle and would accompany with the particle to move. The absorption layer contributed little to the flow of nanoparticles but much to the heat transferring in nanofluids. Another phenomenon observed during shear flowing process was that the nanoparticles would vibrate and rotate besides main flowing with liquid argon and these micro-motions could strengthen partial flowing in nanofluids.

Modified HSS iteration methods for a class of complex symmetric linear systems

In this paper, we introduce and analyze a modification of the Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting iteration method for solving a broad class of complex symmetric linear systems. We show that the modified Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting (MHSS) iteration method is unconditionally convergent. Each iteration of this method requires the solution of two linear systems with real symmetric positive definite coefficient matrices. These two systems can be solved inexactly. We consider acceleration of the MHSS iteration by Krylov subspace methods. Numerical experiments on a few model problems are used to illustrate the performance of the new method.     

Multiple Condensation filters for road detection and tracking

In this paper, we present a novel and robust road tracking system for vision-based personal navigation. Novelty of the work includes the use of multiple Condensation filters to track the road of arbitrary shape and automatic switching between trackers according to road conditions. The approach allows the road to be represented as a simple hyperbola. It also supports the representation of the road as a sequence of connected arcs/segments so that information from a digital map can be integrated into tracking. The parameters of the hyperbola road model are estimated using multiple vanishing points located in image strips. The road tracking method is robust in dealing with complex road shapes, background clutters, shadows, and road markings. Experiments using real videos demonstrate the robustness of our approach.

Three-dimensional reconstruction on PC-Windows platform for evaluation of living donor nephrectomy

Evaluation of renal vasculature was necessary for preoperative donor assessment in living donor kidney transplantation, and the ability to view the vascular imaging in three-dimensional (3D) space should be helpful undoubtedly. Considering the widespread use of personal computer (PC) systems, we aimed to find a handy way to display the anatomy of the renal arterial and venous systems of potential donors on PC-Windows platform. Ten living-related donors were included in this study. Serial computed tomography (CT) images were loaded into Amira 3.1 running on a PC with Windows XP. Following image crop, segmentation and 3D reconstruction, we got the 3D images and the video clips. According to the displays which were confirmed by latter intraoperative findings, eight donors had single renal vessels, one had a left accessory renal artery and one had a right accessory renal artery. This project offered a new approach to evaluate the renal vessel anatomy in living donor kidney transplantation, and it was favorable for accuracy and popularizing.

ON THE PARTIAL SUMS OF RESIDUALS IN AUTOREGRESSIVE AND MOVING AVERAGE MODELS

Abstract. The limiting process of partial sums of residuals in stationary and invertible autoregressive moving-average models is studied. It is shown that the partial sums converge to a standard Brownian motion under the assumptions that estimators of unknown parameters are root- n consistent and that innovations are independent and identically distributed random variables with zero mean and finite variance or, more generally, are martingale differences with moment restrictions specified in Theorem 1. Applications for goodness-of-fit and change-point problems are considered. The use of residuals for constructing nonparametric density estimation is discussed.
