    An Efficient GPU Solver for Maximizing Fundamental Eigenfrequency in Large-Scale Three-Dimensional Topology Optimization

    Tianyuan Qi1, Junpeng Zhao1,2,*, Chunjie Wang1,2

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.145, No.1, pp. 127-151, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.070769 - 30 October 2025

    Abstract A major bottleneck in large-scale eigenfrequency topology optimization is the repeated solution of the generalized eigenvalue problem. This work presents an efficient graphics processing unit (GPU) solver for three-dimensional (3D) topology optimization that maximizes the fundamental eigenfrequency. The Successive Iteration of Analysis and Design (SIAD) framework is employed to avoid solving a full eigenproblem at every iteration. The sequential approximation of the eigenpairs is solved by the GPU-accelerated multigrid-preconditioned conjugate gradient (MGPCG) method to efficiently improve the eigenvectors along with the topological evolution. The cluster-mean approach is adopted to address the non-differentiability issue caused by… More > Graphic Abstract

    Zeinel Momynkulov1,2, Azhar Tursynova1,2,*, Olzhas Olzhayev1,2, Akhanseri Ikramov1,2, Sayat Ibrayev1, Batyrkhan Omarov1,2,3,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.145, No.1, pp. 891-918, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.068615 - 30 October 2025

    Abstract Robotic manipulators increasingly operate in complex three-dimensional workspaces where accuracy and strict limits on position, velocity, and acceleration must be satisfied. Conventional geometric planners emphasize path smoothness but often ignore dynamic feasibility, motivating control-aware trajectory generation. This study presents a novel model predictive control (MPC) framework for three-dimensional trajectory planning of robotic manipulators that integrates second-order dynamic modeling and multi-objective parameter optimization. Unlike conventional interpolation techniques such as cubic splines, B-splines, and linear interpolation, which neglect physical constraints and system dynamics, the proposed method generates dynamically feasible trajectories by directly optimizing over acceleration inputs while… More >

    Three-Dimensional Model Classification Based on VIT-GE and Voting Mechanism

    Fang Yuan, Xueyao Gao*, Chunxiang Zhang

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.85, No.3, pp. 5037-5055, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.067760 - 23 October 2025

    Abstract 3D model classification has emerged as a significant research focus in computer vision. However, traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) often struggle to capture global dependencies across both height and width dimensions simultaneously, leading to limited feature representation capabilities when handling complex visual tasks. To address this challenge, we propose a novel 3D model classification network named ViT-GE (Vision Transformer with Global and Efficient Attention), which integrates Global Grouped Coordinate Attention (GGCA) and Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) mechanisms. Specifically, the Vision Transformer (ViT) is employed to extract comprehensive global features from multi-view inputs using its self-attention More >

    Validation of the Moroccan Three-dimensional Wisdom Scale (3D-WS): A cross-cultural exploration of wisdom

    Saif Allah Allouani1, Amine Zenjari2, Abla Berrada1, Mohammed Ben Amar1, Amal Zaki2,*

    Journal of Psychology in Africa, Vol.35, No.5, pp. 619-625, 2025, DOI:10.32604/jpa.2025.070238 - 24 October 2025

    Abstract This study adapted and validated the Three-Dimensional Wisdom Scale (3D-WS; Ardelt, 2003) for a Moroccan adult sample. The 3D-WS conceptualizes wisdom through cognitive, reflective, and affective dimensions. A total of 404 Moroccan adults (56.9% women; M = 31.8 years, SD = 9.4) completed an online survey. Exploratory factor analysis (principal-axis extraction with Promax rotation) reduced the scale to 15 culturally adapted items across three factors, accounting for 44.3% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated satisfactory fit: χ²/df = 1.46, GFI = 0.94, CFI = 0.91, RMSEA = 0.049. Bifactor modeling indicated a strong More >

    Cancer 3D Models: Essential Tools for Understanding and Overcoming Drug Resistance

    Sofija Jovanović Stojanov1, Marija Grozdanić1, Mila Ljujić2, Sandra Dragičević2, Miodrag Dragoj1, Jelena Dinić1,*

    Oncology Research, Vol.33, No.10, pp. 2741-2785, 2025, DOI:10.32604/or.2025.067126 - 26 September 2025

    Abstract Anticancer drug resistance remains a major challenge in cancer treatment hindering the efficacy of chemotherapy and targeted therapies. Conventional two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures cannot replicate the complexity of the in vivo tumor microenvironment (TME), limiting their utility for drug resistance research. Therefore, three-dimensional (3D) tumor models have proven to be a promising alternative for investigating chemoresistance mechanisms. In this review, various cancer 3D models, including spheroids, organoids, scaffold-based models, and bioprinted models, are comprehensively evaluated with a focus on their application in drug resistance studies. We discuss the materials, properties, and advantages of each model, highlighting More > Graphic Abstract

    A Three-Dimensional SPH Simulation of Lander Footpad Impact on a Lunar Regolith Bed

    Wanqing Yuan1, Huiying Xie1, Can Huang2, Xiaoliang Wang1,3,*, Qingquan Liu1,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.142, No.2, pp. 2045-2066, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.058977 - 27 January 2025

    Abstract Landing spacecraft experience significant impact forces during landing, resulting in large deformation and failure in the soil surface, which severely affects landing safety and stability. This paper establishes a smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) model based on the theory of soil elastoplastic constitutive relations to describe the process of a lander’s footpad impacting lunar regolith vertically. The model can provide engineering indices such as impact load and penetration depth, and illustrate the large deformation and crater characteristics of the regolith. A detailed analysis of the response of the footpad and lunar regolith during landing reveals that… More > Graphic Abstract

    Three-dimensional models: from cell culture to Patient-Derived Organoid and its application to future liposarcoma research

    SAYUMI TAHARA1, SYDNEY RENTSCH1, FERNANDA COSTAS CASAL DE FARIA1, PATRICIA SARCHET1, ROMA KARNA1, FEDERICA CALORE2,*, RAPHAEL E. POLLOCK1

    Oncology Research, Vol.33, No.1, pp. 1-13, 2025, DOI:10.32604/or.2024.053635 - 20 December 2024

    Abstract Liposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas, however, its occurrence rate is still rare compared to other cancers. Due to its rarity, in vitro experiments are an essential approach to elucidate liposarcoma pathobiology. Conventional cell culture-based research (2D cell culture) is still playing a pivotal role, while several shortcomings have been recently under discussion. In vivo, mouse models are usually adopted for pre-clinical analyses with expectations to overcome the issues of 2D cell culture. However, they do not fully recapitulate human dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) characteristics. Therefore, three-dimensional (3D) culture systems have been the recent… More >

    Sheng Guo1,2,*, Mengmeng Yang1, Yao Huang2, Xizi Gao1, Chao Cai3,*, Kun Zhou4,5,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.30, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2024, DOI:10.32604/icces.2024.012655

    Abstract 3D printing technology has demonstrated considerable potential in wastewater remediation. Zero-valent metal (ZVM) has been recognized as an efficient catalyst facilitating the organic pollutant degradation in water. However, owing to its inclination toward oxidation and aggregation, the practical utilization of ZVM remains a challenge. Herein, we have employed 3D printing techniques to fabricate hierarchically porous ZVM, such as zero-valent copper and zero-valent iron, which exhibit a high level of printing precision and commendable resistance to compression. These 3D-ZVM catalysts can effectively activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS), thereby degrading various organic pollutants, including tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, rhodamine B, and… More >
