An Approximate Proximal Bundle Method to Minimize a Class of Maximum Eigenvalue Functions
We present an approximate nonsmooth algorithm to solve a minimization problem, in which the objective function is the sum of a maximum eigenvalue function of matrices and a convex function.

A novel haptic model and environment for maxillofacial surgical operation planning and manipulation [PDF]
This paper presents a practical method and a new haptic model to support manipulations of bones and their segments during the planning of a surgical operation in a virtual environment using a haptic interface. To perform an effective dental surgery it is

Making Nuclei Out Of The Skyrme Crystal [PDF]
A new method for approximating Skyrme solutions is developed. It consists of cutting sections out of the Skyrme crystal and smoothly interpolating between the boundary and spatial infinity. Several field configurations are constructed, and their energies

A Proximal Analytic Center Cutting Plane Algorithm for Solving Variational Inequality Problems
Under the condition that the values of mapping F are evaluated approximately, we propose a proximal analytic center cutting plane algorithm for solving variational inequalities. It can be considered as an approximation of the earlier cutting plane method,

Infeasibility Cutting Plane for Unit Commitment Problem
This paper introduces a new type of cutting plane for the unit commitment (UC) problem, namely “infeasibility cutting plane”. The infeasibility cutting plane refers to a type of logic constraint that eliminates the combination of integer ...

Guidelines to select suitable parameters for contour method stress measurements [PDF]
The contour method is one of the promising techniques for the measurement of residual stresses in engineering components. In this method, the cut surfaces deform, owing to the relaxation of residual stresses.

Targeted 2D histology and ultrastructural bone analysis based on 3D microCT anatomical locations
Histological processing of mineralised tissue (e.g. bone) allows examining the anatomy of cells and tissues as well as the material properties of the tissue. However, resin-embedding offers limited control over the specimen position for cutting. Moreover,

A cutting-plane approach for large-scale capacitated multi-period facility location using a specialized interior-point method [PDF]
We propose a cutting-plane approach (namely, Benders decomposition) for a class of capacitated multi-period facility location problems. The novelty of this approach lies on the use of a specialized interior-point method for solving the Benders ...

Maximization of a Convex Quadratic Function Under Linear Constraints [PDF]
Since the appearance of a paper by H. Tui, maximization of convex function over a polytope has attracted much attention. In his paper, two algorithms were proposed: one cutting plane and the other enumerative.
