Spherical Coordinates01:23

Spherical Coordinates

14.9K
Spherical coordinate systems are preferred over Cartesian, polar, or cylindrical coordinates for systems with spherical symmetry. For example, to describe the surface of a sphere, Cartesian coordinates require all three coordinates. On the other hand, the spherical coordinate system requires only one parameter: the sphere's radius. As a result, the complicated mathematical calculations become simple. Spherical coordinates are used in science and engineering applications like electric and...

Plastic Deformations01:19

Plastic Deformations

439
Plastic deformation represents a fundamental concept in materials science, which explains the irreversible change in the shape of a material when it experiences stress beyond its elastic capability. This phenomenon is important in structural engineering, especially in designing and analyzing cantilever beams—structures that are securely fixed at one end and bear loads at the opposite end. When these beams are subjected to loads within their elastic range, they will return to their...

Plastic Deformations

412
It is essential to understand how structural members behave under plastic deformation when the bending stress exceeds the material's yield strength. This state of deformation permanently alters the shape of the member, in contrast to the linear elastic behavior observed before yielding. The strain at any point in the member is expressed in terms of maximum strain. Notably, the neutral axis, which coincides with the centroid during elastic bending, shifts away from the centroid under plastic...

Spherical and Cylindrical Capacitor01:26

Spherical and Cylindrical Capacitor

6.7K
A spherical capacitor consists of two concentric conducting spherical shells of radii R1 (inner shell) and R2 (outer shell). The shells have  equal and opposite charges of +Q and −Q, respectively. For an isolated conducting spherical capacitor, the radius of the outer shell can be considered to be infinite.
Conventionally, considering the  symmetry, the electric field between the concentric shells of a spherical capacitor is directed radially outward. The magnitude of the field,...

Gravity between Spherical Bodies

9.3K
Newton's law of gravitation describes the gravitational force between any two point masses. However, for extended spherical objects like the Earth, the Moon, and other planets, the law holds with an assumption that masses of spherical objects are concentrated at their respective centers.
This assumption can be proved easily by showing that the expression for gravitational potential energy between a hollow sphere of mass (M) and a point mass (m) is the same as it would be for a pair of extended...

Temperature Dependent Deformation01:12

Temperature Dependent Deformation

373
In a nonhomogeneous rod made up of steel and brass, restrained at both ends and subjected to a temperature change, several steps are involved in calculating the stress and compressive load. Due to the problem's static indeterminacy, one end support is disconnected, allowing the rod to experience the temperature change freely. Next, an unknown force is applied at the free end, triggering deformations in the rod's steel and brass portions. These deformations are then calculated and added...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Computational Anatomy
  • Medical Image Analysis

Background:

  • Conventional spherical registration methods perform global and local alignment independently.
  • Template selection bias and registration distortion are significant challenges in group-wise shape correspondence.
  • Accurate cortical surface registration is crucial for understanding brain structure and function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a hierarchical spherical deformation framework for group-wise shape correspondence.
  • To address template selection bias and minimize registration distortion in cortical surface registration.
  • To achieve a continuous and smooth deformation field for accurate registration.

Main Methods:

  • Simultaneously optimize global rigid rotation and non-rigid local deformation using spherical harmonics interpolation.
  • Indirectly encode local displacements via local composite rotations as functions of spherical locations.
  • Introduce a regularization term to maximize rigidity and reduce registration distortion, employing second-order approximation for fast optimization.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated improved shape correspondence with high accuracy in manual cortical surface parcellation.
  • Achieved significantly low registration distortion in surface area and edge length.
  • Validated the method on healthy subjects, showing enhanced registration performance.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed hierarchical spherical deformation method effectively improves cortical surface registration accuracy and reduces distortion.
  • This framework offers a unified approach to simultaneous global and local alignment, overcoming limitations of conventional methods.
  • The method shows promise for advancing neuroimaging analysis through more precise shape correspondence and reduced registration artifacts.
