Abstract In this paper the authors raise the issue of automatic discrimination of atherosclerotic plaques within an artery lumen based on numerical and statistical thresholding of Computerized Tomography Angiographic (CTA) images and their advanced dimensioning as a support for preoperative vessel assessment. For the study, a set of tomograms of the aorta, as well as the ilio-femoral and femoral arteries were examined. In each case a sequence of about 130-480 images of the artery cutoff planes were analyzed prior to their segmentation based on morphological image transformation. A crucial step in the staging of atherosclerotic alteration is recognition of the plaque in the CTA image. To solve this problem, statistical and linear fitting methods, including the least-squares approximation by polynomial and spline polynomial functions, as well as the error fitting function were used. Also, new descriptors of atherosclerotic changes, such as the lumen decrease factor, the circumference occupancy factor, and the convex plaque area factor, are proposed as a means of facilitating preoperative vessel examination. Finally, ways to reduce the computational time are discussed. The proposed methods can be very useful for automatic quantification of atherosclerotic changes visualized by CTA imaging.

This paper examines different numerical methods to estimate flexural strain from surface elevation measurements on concrete sidewalks. Surface elevations, along a typical concrete sidewalk cross section, were monitored on a monthly basis as part of a study to determine the cracking mechanism of concrete sidewalks. These measurements were carried out in Calgary, Edmonton, and Camrose, Alberta, between 1993 and mid-1995. Finite difference, cubic spline, polynomial fit, and Fourier series methods of analyses are described for an indirect estimation of flexural strains in sidewalks. The sensitivity of these methods to measurement error is discussed. The Fourier series method is found to be the best procedure to analyse sidewalk surface elevation data for flexural strains estimates. The numerical methods to indirectly determine strain are best suited for those circumstances where installation of strain gauges is difficult, expensive, or impossible.Key words: concrete sidewalks, indirect estimates of flexural strain.

An efficient algorithm for the numerical solution of higher (even) orders two-point nonlinear boundary value problems has been developed. The method is third order accurate and applicable to both singular and nonsingular cases. We have used cubic spline polynomial basis and geometric mesh finite difference technique for the generation of this new scheme. The irreducibility and monotone property of the iteration matrix have been established and the convergence analysis of the proposed method has been discussed. Some numerical experiments have been carried out to demonstrate the computational efficiency in terms of convergence order, maximum absolute errors, and root mean square errors. The numerical results justify the reliability and efficiency of the method in terms of both order and accuracy.

The method of caustics is applied to formulate the normal and tangential stresses developed in the contact zone of two elastic bodies, and also for one elastic and the other plastic. The stresses are represented by a cubic spline polynomial, its coefficients calculated by pseudocaustics from reflected light around the contact zone. The method is applied to determine the stresses along the boundary of a half-plane and the stresses along the contact area of two disks. The deviation of calculated stresses from the applied ones, in the first case was small, while in the second case it was found that the normal distribution of stresses was similar to a Hertzian distribution. This experimental method can be used to accurately obtain contact stresses.

In this work we suggest a numerical approach based on the B-spline polynomial to obtain the solution of linear fractional partial differential equations. We find the operational matrix for fractional integration and then we convert the main problem into a system of linear algebraic equations by using this matrix. Examples are provided to show the simplicity of our method.
