A random integral quadrature method for numerical analysis of the second kind of Volterra integral equations by Li, Hua., Zou, Hua.

“…In this paper, a novel meshless technique termed the random integral quadrature (RIQ) method is developed for the numerical solution of the second kind of the Volterra integral equations. The RIQ method is based on the generalized integral quadrature (GIQ) technique, and associated with the Kriging interpolation function, such that it is regarded as an extension of the GIQ technique. …”

Micro fourier transform profilometry ($μ$FTP) : 3D shape measurement at 10,000 frames per second by Zuo, Chao, Tao, Tianyang, Feng, Shijie, Huang, Lei, Asundi, Anand, Chen, Qian

“…However, due to the large number of projection patterns required for phase recovery and disambiguation, the maximum fame rates of current 3D shape measurement techniques are still limited to the range of hundreds of frames per second (fps). Here, we demonstrate a new 3D dynamic imaging technique, Micro Fourier Transform Profilometry ($\mu$FTP), which can capture 3D surfaces of transient events at up to 10,000 fps based on our newly developed high-speed fringe projection system. …”

A BPNN-PID based long-stroke nanopositioning control scheme driven by ultrasonic motor by Cheng, Fang, Fan, Kuang-Chao, Miao, Jinwei, Li, Bai-Kun, Wang, Hung-Yu

“…The highlight of this 3-step motion control system is first to drive the table by AC mode at a low and stable speed in millimeter per second scale, then to move close to the target point by Gate mode with the positioning error less than 100 nm in micrometer per second scaled speed, and finally to adjust and hold at the target point by DC mode in nanometer per second scaled speed. …”

Capillary filling in closed end nanochannels by Phan, Vinh-Nguyen, Nguyen, Nam-Trung, Yang, Chun, Joseph, Pierre, Djeghlaf, Lyes, Bourrier, David, Gue, Anne-Marie

“…However, a remarkable discrepancy between the experimental results and the theory without gas absorption is observed in the second stage. A closer investigation of the second stage reveals that the dissolution of gas in the liquid is important and can be explained by the model with gas absorption and diffusion.…”
