The fifth edition of "Numerical Methods for Engineers" continues its tradition of excellence. Instructors love this text because it is a comprehensive text that is easy to teach from. Students love it because it is written for them--with great pedagogy and clear explanations and examples throughout. The text features a broad array of applications, including all engineering disciplines. The revision retains the successful pedagogy of the prior editions. Chapra and Canale's unique approach opens each part of the text with sections called Motivation, Mathematical Background, and Orientation, preparing the student for what is to come in a motivating and engaging manner. Each part closes with an Epilogue containing sections called Trade-Offs, Important Relationships and Formulas, and Advanced Methods and Additional References. Much more than a summary, the Epilogue deepens understanding of what has been learned and provides a peek into more advanced methods. Approximately 80% of the end-of-chapter problems are revised or new to this edition. The expanded breadth of engineering disciplines covered is especially evident in the problems, which now cover such areas as biotechnology and biomedical engineering. Users will find use of software packages, specifically MATLAB and Excel with VBA. This includes material on developing MATLAB m-files and VBA macros.

Forecasting methods and applications.

The Kalman filter (KF) has received a huge interest from the industrial electronics community and has played a key role in many engineering fields since the 1970s, ranging, without being exhaustive, trajectory estimation, state and parameter estimation for control or diagnosis, data merging, signal processing, and so on. This paper provides a brief overview of the industrial applications and implementation issues of the KF in six topics of the industrial electronics community, highlighting some relevant reference papers and giving future research trends.

Industrial Applications of the Kalman Filter: A Review

The genetic, functional or compositional heterogeneity of healthy and diseased tissues presents major challenges in drug discovery and development. Such heterogeneity hinders the design of accurate disease models and can confound the interpretation of biomarker levels and of patient responses to specific therapies. The complex nature of virtually all tissues has motivated the development of tools for single-cell genomic, transcriptomic and multiplex proteomic analyses. Here, we review these tools and assess their advantages and limitations. Emerging applications of single cell analysis tools in drug discovery and development, particularly in the field of oncology, are discussed.

Flocking birds, fish schools, and insect swarms are familiar examples of collective motion that plays a role in a range of problems, such as spreading of diseases. Models have provided a qualitative understanding of the collective motion, but progress has been hindered by the lack of detailed experimental data. Here we report simultaneous measurements of the positions, velocities, and orientations as a function of time for up to a thousand wild-type Bacillus subtilis bacteria in a colony. The bacteria spontaneously form closely packed dynamic clusters within which they move cooperatively. The number of bacteria in a cluster exhibits a power-law distribution truncated by an exponential tail. The probability of finding clusters with large numbers of bacteria grows markedly as the bacterial density increases. The number of bacteria per unit area exhibits fluctuations far larger than those for populations in thermal equilibrium. Such “giant number fluctuations” have been found in models and in experiments on inert systems but not observed previously in a biological system. Our results demonstrate that bacteria are an excellent system to study the general phenomenon of collective motion.

In this paper a Discrete-Time Sliding-Mode based controller design for high accuracy motion control systems is presented. The controller is designed for a general SISO system with nonlinearity and external disturbance. Closed-Loop behavior of the general system with the proposed control and Lyapunov stability is shown and the error of the closed loop system is proven to be within an o(T2). The proposed controller is applied to a stage driven by a piezo drive that is known to suffer from hysteresis nonlinearity in the control gain. Proposed SMC controller is proven to offer chattering-free motion and rejection of the disturbances represented by hysteresis and the time variation of the piezo drive parameters. As a separate idea to enhance the accuracy of the closed loop system a combination of disturbance rejection method and the SMC controller is explored and its effectiveness is experimentally demonstrated. Closed-loop experiments are presented using PID controller with and without disturbance compensation and Sliding-Mode Controller with and without disturbance compensation for the purpose of comparison.

Quantifying Deformation and Migration Properties of U87 Glioma Cells Using Dielectrophoretic Forces

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive primary brain tumors with its extreme proliferation and invasiveness. U87 human glioma cell line is one of the best representative cell lines for GBM with its extremely heterogenous and frequently altered morphologies. Quantification of heterogeneity and morphological changes of U87 glioma cells are mostly based on manual analysis. Therefore, automated image segmentation and analysis approaches are crucial. Here, we implemented U-Net algorithm for segmentation of U87 glioma cells and obtained 0.06% loss and 97.3% accuracy values. Next, we integrated Chan-Vese, K-means, and Morphological Filtering. Finally, we compared the performances of these approaches. We believe that our preliminary data might contribute to development of automated, reliable, accurate, and cell type specific image segmentation tools.

Internet-of-Things technology (IoTs) have accelerated biosensor applications in all fields. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)-based biosensor technologies in conjunction with smartphone detection have been adequate to cover the demands of mobile diagnostics. The ease of use, affordability, portability, high sensitivity, flexibility, and specificity demands of point-of-care detection can be achieved by low-cost electronic components, 3-dimensional printing technologies, capturing images of calorimetrically detected readouts made our system a promising approach for real-time point-of-detection in the field. In this study, we implemented a cloud service to our LAMP-based biosensor. We previously performed bacteria detection using colony-based LAMP device and now distributed the optical readouts of the assay using smartphones. We transferred the obtained image and results of the assays through cloud. Our user-friendly interface simplifies the data processing, it directly digitized the readouts and eliminates the need of data interpretation.

The effect of intravenous fluids (IVF) has been investigated clinically through the assessment of post-treatment reactions. However, the responses to IVF vary from patient-to-patient. It is important to understand the response of IVF treatment to be able to provide optimal IVF care. Herein, we investigated the impact of commonly used IVFs, Dextrose, NaCl and Ringer on different human cancer (HepG2 (liver hepatocellular carcinoma) and MCF7 (breast adenocarcinoma)) and immune cell lines (U937 (lymphoma) monocyte and macrophages). The effect of IVF exposure on single cells was characterized using hemocytometer, fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Quantitative data on the viability and morphology of the cells were obtained. Our results emphasize that different IVFs demonstrate important differences in how they influence distinct cell lines. Particularly, we observed that the lactated ringer and dextrose solutions altered the viability and nuclear size of cancer and immune cells differently. Our findings present valuable information to the knowledge of cellular-level IVF effects for further investigations in IVF usage on diverse patient populations and support the importance and necessity of developing optimal diluents not only for drug stability but also for patient benefits.
