By applying formal asymptotic analysis and Laplace transformation, we obtain two-dimensional nonlinear viscoelastic shells model satisfied by the leading term of asymptotic expansion of the solution to the three-dimensional equations.

A theroetical analysis is given for potential flow over, around and under a vehicle of general shape moving close to a plane ground surface. Solutions are given both in the form of a small-gap asymptotic expansion and a direct numerical computation, with close agreement between the two for two-dimensional flows with and without circulation. Some results for three-dimensional bodies are discussed.

In this paper, we define, a priori, a natural two-dimensional Koiter’s model of a ‘general’ linearly elastic shell subject to a confinement condition. As expected, this model takes the form of variational inequalities posed over a non-empty closed convex subset of the function space used for the ‘unconstrained’ Koiter’s model. We then perform a rigorous asymptotic analysis as the thickness of the shell, considered a ‘small’ parameter, approaches zero, when the shell belongs to one of the three main classes of linearly elastic shells, namely elliptic membrane shells, generalized membrane shells and flexural shells. To illustrate the soundness of this model, we consider elliptic membrane shells to fix ideas. We then show that, in this case, the ‘limit’ model obtained in this fashion coincides with the two-dimensional ‘limit’ model obtained by means of another rigorous asymptotic analysis, but this time with the three-dimensional model of a ‘general’ linearly elastic shell subject to a confinement condition as a point of departure. In this fashion, our proposed Koiter’s model of a linearly elastic shell subject to a confinement condition is fully justified in this case, even though it is not itself a ‘limit’ model.

In this paper, the computation of multiple (including two dimensional and three dimensional) Cauchy principal integral with generalized composite rectangle rule was discussed, with the density function approximated by the middle rectangle rule, while the singular kernel was analytically calculated. Based on the expansion of the density function, the asymptotic expansion formulae of error functional are obtained. A series is constructed to approach the singular point, then the extrapolation algorithm is presented, and the convergence rate is proved. At last, some numerical examples are presented to validate the theoretical analysis.

In this chapter, we consider the optimization problem of a heat distribution on a bounded domain Ω containing a heat source at an unknown location ω⊂Ω. More precisely, we are interested in the best location of ω allowing a suitable thermal environment. For this propose, we consider the minimization of the maximum temperature and its L2 mean oscillations. We extend the notion of topological derivative to the case of local coated perturbation and we perform the asymptotic expansion of the considered shape functionals. In order to reconstruct the location of ω, we propose a one-shot algorithm based on the topological derivative. Finally, we present some numerical experiments in two dimensional case, showing the efficiency of the proposed method.

International audience In a recent work Gratie has generalized the classical Marguerre-von Kármán equations studied by Ciarlet and Paumier in [2], where only a portion of the lateral face is subjected to boundary conditions of von Kármán’s type and the remaining portion being free. She shows that the leading term of the asymptotic expansion is characterized by a two-dimensional boundary value problem. In this paper, we extend formally this study to dynamic case. Dans un travail récent Gratie [7] a généralisé les équations de Marguerre-von Kármán classiques étudiées par Ciarlet et Paumier dans [2], où une partie seulement de la face latérale est soumise à des conditions aux limites de type von Kármán et la partie restante étant libre. Elle montre que le terme dominant du développement asymptotique est caractérisé par un problème aux limites bi-dimensionnel. Dans ce travail, on étend formellement cette étude au cas dynamique

This tutorial will discuss the methodology of low dose electron diffraction and imaging of crystalline biological objects, the problems of data interpretation for two-dimensional projected density maps of glucose embedded protein crystals, the factors to be considered in combining tilt data from three-dimensional crystals, and finally, the prospects of achieving a high resolution three-dimensional density map of a biological crystal. This methodology will be illustrated using two proteins under investigation in our laboratory, the T4 DNA helix destabilizing protein gp32*I and the crotoxin complex crystal.

In all fields of microscopy there is an increasing interest in the quantification of microstructure. This interest may stem from a desire to establish quality control parameters or may have a more fundamental requirement involving the derivation of parameters which partially or completely define the three dimensional nature of the microstructure. This latter categorey of study may arise from an interest in the evolution of microstructure or from a desire to generate detailed property/microstructure relationships. In the more fundamental studies some convolution of two-dimensional data into the third dimension (stereological analysis) will be necessary.In some cases the two-dimensional data may be acquired relatively easily without recourse to automatic data collection and further, it may prove possible to perform the data reduction and analysis relatively easily. In such cases the only recourse to machines may well be in establishing the statistical confidence of the resultant data. Such relatively straightforward studies tend to result from acquiring data on the whole assemblage of features making up the microstructure. In this field data mode, when parameters such as phase volume fraction, mean size etc. are sought, the main case for resorting to automation is in order to perform repetitive analyses since each analysis is relatively easily performed.

The image obtained in a transmission electron microscope is the two-dimensional projection of a three-dimensional (3D) object. The 3D reconstruction of the object can be calculated from a series of projections by back-projection, but this algorithm assumes that the image is linearly related to a line integral of the object function. However, there are two kinds of contrast in electron microscopy, scattering and phase contrast, of which only the latter is linear with the optical density (OD) in the micrograph. Therefore the OD can be used as a measure of the projection only for thin specimens where phase contrast dominates the image. For thick specimens, where scattering contrast predominates, an exponential absorption law holds, and a logarithm of OD must be used. However, for large thicknesses, the simple exponential law might break down due to multiple and inelastic scattering.

Increased specimen penetration; the principle advantage of high voltage microscopy, is accompanied by an increased need to utilize information on three dimensional specimen structure available in the form of two dimensional projections (i.e. micrographs). We are engaged in a program to develop methods which allow the maximum use of information contained in a through tilt series of micrographs to determine three dimensional speciman structure.In general, we are dealing with structures lacking in symmetry and with projections available from only a limited span of angles (±60°). For these reasons, we must make maximum use of any prior information available about the specimen. To do this in the most efficient manner, we have concentrated on iterative, real space methods rather than Fourier methods of reconstruction. The particular iterative algorithm we have developed is given in detail in ref. 3. A block diagram of the complete reconstruction system is shown in fig. 1.

If the tilt of a specimen can be varied either by the strategy of observing identical particles orientated randomly or by use of a eucentric goniometer stage, three dimensional reconstruction procedures are available (l). If the specimens, such as small protein aggregates, lack periodicity, direct space methods compete favorably in ease of implementation with reconstruction by the Fourier (transform) space approach (2). Regardless of method, reconstruction is possible because useful specimen thicknesses are always much less than the depth of field in an electron microscope. Thus electron images record the amount of stain in columns of the object normal to the recording plates. For single particles, practical considerations dictate that the specimen be tilted precisely about a single axis. In so doing a reconstructed image is achieved serially from two-dimensional sections which in turn are generated by a series of back-to-front lines of projection data.
