There have been many studies on glass particle contamination from glass ampules during the injection of glass ampules, but only the contamination from direct IV bolus injection has been measured. This research aimed to study the difference in glass particle contamination from ampules with different intravenous administration methods commonly used in clinical practice. Four methods were studied:...

The Lie-Group Shooting Method for Nonlinear Two-Point Boundary Value Problems Exhibiting Multiple Solutions Chein-Shan Liu1 Summary The present paper provides a Lie-group shooting method for the numerical solutions of second-order nonlinear boundary value problems exhibiting multiple solutions. It aims to find all solutions as easy as possible. The boundary conditions considered are classified ...

In this paper, some results are provided for minimum time roll about velocity vector maneuvering with thrust-vectoring and aerodynamic control in effect. The mathematical model for attitude motions of the aircraft is developed. First order necessary conditions for optimality using Pontryagen principle is applied, and the existence of an extreme family of solutions for the maneuver is shown. Mul...

In this paper, we employed both first and second laws of thermodynamics to analyze the flow and thermal decomposition in a variable viscosity Couette flow of a conducting fluid in a rotating system under the combined influence of magnetic field and Hall current. The non-linear governing differential equations are obtained and solved numerically using shooting method coupled with fourth order Ru...

TWO-POINT boundary-value problems (TPBVPs) form an important ingredient in the solution of several multiphysics modeling and control analyses, including but not limited to guidance, navigation, and control problems of aerospace engineering. Several techniques to solve TPBVPs have been developed so far and the workhorse at the core of each has been Newton’s method (cf. Bryson and Ho [1]). In thi...

The problem of two-dimensional, steady, nonlinear flow of an incompressible conducting viscous fluid in convergent-divergent channels under the influence of an externally applied homogeneous magnetic field is studied using a special type of Hermite-Padé approximation approach. This semi-numerical scheme offers some advantages over solutions obtained by using traditional methods such as finite d...

This paper gives the analysis and numerics underlying a shooting method for approximating the eigenvalues of nonselfadjoint Sturm-Liouville problems. We consider even order problems with (equally divided) separated boundary conditions. The method can nd the eigenvalues in a rectangle and in a left half-plane. It combines the argument principle with the compound matrix method (using the Magnus e...

This paper presents camera calibration and tracking method for mixed reality based pre-visualization system for filmmaking. The proposed calibration method collects environmental information required for tracking efficiently since the rough camera path and target environment are known before actual shooting. Previous camera tracking methods using natural feature are suitable for outdoor environ...
