Red Blood Cell Membrane Mechanics Using Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) and Optimization. [PDF]
We present a novel DEC approach for calculating RBC shapes applicable to other cell types and membrane problems. We derive an energy minimization equation that can be solved semi‐implicitly, and a Lie derivative method to control node spacing. This novel work should aid computational modeling in many biological situations.

Free Vibrations of Thin Isotropic Oblate Spheroidal Shells [PDF]
The free-vibration problem of a thin, isotropic, oblate spheroidal shell was solved by Galerkin's method. Membrane theory and harmonic axisymmetric motion were assumed to derive the differential equations of motion. The equations of motion lead to two ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients.

Free-fall experiments of volcanic ash particles using a 2-D video disdrometer [PDF]
Information of aerodynamic parameters of volcanic ash particles, such as terminal velocity, axis ratio, and canting angle, are necessary for quantitative ash-fall estimations with weather radar.

Self-consistent Oblate-Spheroid Models [PDF]
A method for the construction of models of axisymmetric galaxies is presented. in this formulation we determine the distribution function corresponding to a given gravitational potential and the associated mass density distribution. Although the realization of the model is numerical, the underlying theory is analytic and exact. This method allows us to

Gravity field due to a homogeneous oblate spheroid: Simple solution form and numerical calculations
We present a simple derivation of the interior and exterior gravitational potentials due to oblate spheroid and also its gravity field components by using the fundamental solution of the Laplace equation in oblate spheroidal coordinates.
