Despite the large number of existing methods of the diagnosis of the brain, brain remains the least studied part of the human body. Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the most popular methods of studying of brain activity due to its relative cheapness, harmless, and mobility of equipment. While analyzing the EEG data of the brain, the problem of solving of the inverse problem of electroencephalography, the localization of the sources of electrical activity of the brain, arises. This problem can be formulated as follows: according to the signals recorded on the surface of the head, it is necessary to determine the location of sources of these signals in the brain. The purpose of my research is to develop a software system for localization of brain activity sources based on the joint analysis of EEG and sMRI data. There are various approaches to solving of the inverse problem of EEG. To obtain the most exact results, some of them involve the use of data on the individual anatomy of the human head – structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI data). In this paper, one of these approaches is supposed to be used – Electromagnetic Spatiotemporal Independent Component Analysis (EMSICA) proposed by A. Tsai. The article describes the main stages of the system, such as preprocessing of the initial data; the calculation of the special matrix of the EMSICA approach, the values of which show the level of activity of a certain part of the brain; visualization of brain activity sources on its three-dimensional model.

Two kinds of three-dimensional model are built to simulate the gas entrainment process through a small break in the horizontal coolant pipe at the bottom of the stratified flow. The results were compared with the two-dimensional simulation results and the experimental data. In terms of the two-phase distribution, the simulation results agree well with the experimental data and show much superiority compared with the two-dimensional model. The results verify the reliability of model building, condition setting and calculating method qualitatively and quantitatively. In general, after gas entrainment, the average velocity over cross section increases obviously, but the mass flow rate decreases contrarily. This is because that void fraction meanwhile reduces the fluid density. In addition, it is found that the larger the void fraction of vapor is, the higher the average discharge velocity of the fracture cross-section fluid is. Besides, with the larger internal and external pressure difference, the gas volume fraction and the flow velocity in the break increase, resulting in the mass flow rate increasing along with them. However, since the critical height increases as well, the total loss amount of liquid in the stable effluent stage decreases, and the time before entrainment becomes shorter.

In an effort to develop a process free of dedicated tooling, this research seeks to study large radius deformation by laser forming. Experimental testing was conducted to determine how the laser parameters affect the single pass output bend angle as well as the additive bend angle from successive parallel, evenly spaced laser irradiations. As an extension of the previous developments, this work seeks to develop a three-dimensional model to simulate the multi-scan laser process. It is of interest to determine how sophisticated a three-dimensional case is required for sufficient agreement to experimental data. The simulated results of bending angle are compared with experimental data and suggestions for future study include the implementation of phase transformation and microstructure data within the model to account for stress development resulting from phase transformation and grain growth.

This article describes the development of a new three-dimensional model of the British building stock, called ‘3DStock’. The model differs from other 3D urban and stock models, in that it represents explicitly and in detail the spatial relationships between ‘premises’ and ‘buildings’. It also represents the pattern of activities on different floors within buildings. The geometrical/geographical structure of the model is assembled automatically from two existing national data sets. Additional data from other sources including figures for electricity and gas consumption are then attached. Some sample results are given for energy use intensities. The first purpose of the model is in the analysis of energy use in the building stock. With actual energy data for very large numbers of premises, it is possible to take a completely new type of statistical approach, in which consumption can be related to a range of characteristics including activity, built form, construction and materials. Models have been built to date of the London Borough of Camden and the cities of Leicester, Tamworth and Swindon. Work is in progress to extend the modelling to other parts of Britain. Because of the coverage of the data, this will be limited however to England and Wales.

A three-dimensional model was developed to simulate the laminar flow and convective heat transfer in rectangular silicon microchannels,which have hydraulic diameter of 95.3,92.3 ,85.8 , 80 and 75μm respectively.The rationality of the simulation methods and results were validated by comparing with experimental data. The simulation results indicate that the aspect ratio has a significant impact on the Poiseuille number. Conventional fluid flow theory is fit for researching the fluid flow in microchannels, Po is a constant that is not dependent on the Reynolds number.

EHD micro-jet can deposit rule and functional patterns in a direct, continuous and controllable manner, and has the advantages of good compatibility, high resolution and simple structure, thus becoming a cost-effective and high-efficiency technology. Through numerical method, obtain the three dimensional model of cone-jet and emphasize the correlation of sediment diameter and PEO concentration. The theoretical graphics agree well with the experimental data, which can explain and provide some theoretical basis for the experiments.
