Seepage causes weakening of levees and can cause levee failure or overtopping due to levee settlement. A numerical method, called the boundary fitted coordinate (BFC) method, was developed to determine seepage through a levee and the transient head on the seepage path due to the changing water level during a flood. The BFC transforms the physical coordinate system into a computational curvilinear coordinate system. The grid generated in this method accurately represents the boundary of the system regardless of its complexity.

Abstract Architecture is one part science, one part craft, and two parts art.—David Rutten This article describes the investigation of structural-functional associations in the brain. Using light microscopy in 1909, Brodmann divided the human and primate brains into dozens of areas based on cell types and distributions, which has since been supplemented by a 3-dimensional coordinate system, an xyz system of millimeter distances. A number of electroencephalograph tomographic (volume) solutions exist, and this article explains the Brodmann montage developed by the author using the spherical harmonic expansion solution by Pascual-Marqui. The author describes his approach to training specific Brodmann areas with electroencephalograhic operant conditioning or feedback.

AbstractThe low frequency NRP oscillations are considered in the case of differential rotation. Partial differential equations for adiabatic oscillations are reduced to a system of ordinary equations by means of a truncated spherical-harmonic expansion. The numerical method for solving the system is described. The final model also includes line profile variations (lpv) and posttheoretical mass (pth) calculations for the complete determinations of the physical, chemical, rotational and seismological properties of the stars.

Abstract This article deals with analytical calculation of the near-field of an electric dipole in Cartesian coordinate system in a closed form. Results of the analytical calculation are verified by numerical method.
