A Python package for fast GPU‐based proton pencil beam dose calculation
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Open‐source GPU‐based Monte Carlo (MC) proton dose calculation algorithms provide high speed and unparalleled accuracy but can be complex to integrate with new applications and remain slower than GPU‐based pencil beam (PB) methods, which sacrifice some physical accuracy for sub‐second plan calculation.

Machine stability and dosimetry for ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy human clinical protocol
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The FLASH effect, induced by ultra‐high dose rate (UHDR) irradiations, offers the potential to spare normal tissue while effectively treating tumors. It is important to achieve precise and accurate dose delivery and to establish reliable detector systems, particularly for clinical trials needed to help the clinical transfer of FLASH‐

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.Summary Data‐driven forecasting of ship motions in waves is investigated through feedforward and recurrent neural networks as well as dynamic mode decomposition. The goal is to predict future ship motion variables based on past data collected on the field, using equation‐free approaches.

Displacement induced electric force and natural self-oscillation of a free electron [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 We show that a kind of displacement induced temporary electric force of a single point charge can be derived by using Maxwell stress analysis. This force comes from the variation of the charge's electric intensities that follow Coulomb's inverse square law, and it is a kind of displacement dependent temporary restoring force.
