In the summer, studies were carried out on the Tokarev crater (Karymsky Volcanic Center, Kamchatka). The results of three–dimensional electrotomography are obtained, which describe in sufficient detail the topography and heterogeneities of the bottom. The studies were carried out using the author’s floating installation of multi–electrode sounding by the direct current method based on Iris Syscal Pro equipment. The depth of research did not exceed 80 meters, which was enough to describe the structure of the Maar.

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) continues to demonstrate success as a medical intervention for neurodegenerative diseases, psychological conditions, and traumatic brain injury recovery. One aspect of tDCS still not fully comprehended is the influence of the tDCS electric field on neural functionality. To address this issue, we present a mathematical, multiscale model that couples tDCS administration to neuron electrodynamics. We demonstrate the model’s validity and medical applicability with computational simulations using an idealized two-dimensional domain and then an MRI-derived, three-dimensional human head geometry possessing inhomogeneous and anisotropic tissue conductivities. We exemplify the capabilities of these simulations with real-world tDCS electrode configurations and treatment parameters and compare the model’s predictions to those attained from medical research studies. The model is implemented using efficient numerical strategies and solution techniques to allow the use of fine computational grids needed by the medical community.

The dipole spacing can directly affects the detecting sensitivity and accuracy in the landfill leakage detection by the high voltage direct current method. Based on the high voltage DC detecting model, the impact of dipole spacing on locating leaks is analyzed taking a single leak and multiple leaks as example. The results show that the greater the dipole spacing is, the higher the detecting sensitivity is; the smaller the dipole spacing is, the higher the detecting accuracy is. For multiple leaks, only one leak can be located when the dipole spacing is greater than the distance between the two leaks. In order to detect all leaks correctly, the dipole spacing should be smaller than the distance between the two leaks.

Bone deformities are often complex three-dimensional (3D) deformities, and correcting them is difficult. To correct persistent clubfoot deformity in adolescents or adults, an external fixator is sometimes used to encourage tissue growth and preserve healthy tissues. However, it is difficult to set up, resulting in long surgeries and steep learning curves for surgeons. It is also bulky and obstructs patient mobility. In this paper, we introduce a new approach of defining clubfoot deformity correction as a six degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) correction, and then reducing it to just two degrees-of-freedom (2DOF) using the axis-angle representation. Therefore, only two physical trajectory joints are needed, which in turn enables a more compact fixator design. A computer planner was developed to minimize the bulk of the external fixator, and to optimize the distraction schedule to avoid overstretching the soft tissues. This reduces the learning curve for surgeons and shortens surgery time. To validate the system, a patient-specific clubfoot simulator was developed, and four experiments were performed on the clubfoot simulator. The accuracy of midfoot correction was 11 mm and 3.5 deg without loading, and 41 mm and 11.7 deg with loading. While the external fixator has to be more rigid to overcome resistance against correction, the surgical system itself was able to achieve accurate correction in less than 2 h. This is an improvement from the current method, which takes 2.5–4.5 h.
