This paper deals with the estimation of the trajectory of a target in constant velocity motion at an unknown constant depth, from measurements of conical angles supplied by a linear array. Sound emitted by the target does not necessarily navigate along a direct path toward the antenna, but can bounce off the sea bottom and/or off the surface. Observability is thoroughly analyzed to identify the ghost targets before proposing an efficient way to estimate the trajectory of the target of interest and of the ghost targets when they exist.

Objectives: This study evaluated different designs of the conical implant-abutment connection (IAC) and their resistance to microgap formation under oblique loads as specified by the ISO standard for testing dental implants. Also evaluated was the effect of deviations from the ISO specifications on the outcomes.
Methods: Finite element analysis was conducted to compare the microgap formation and stress distribution among three conical IAC designs (A, B, and C) in two loading configurations: one compliant with ISO 14801 and one with a modified load adaptor (non-ISO).

Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrate that regular conical helices of poly(-phenylene) (PPP) chains can be constructed inside the confined space of single-walled carbon nanocones (CNCs). The translocation displacement of the PPP chain combined with the change of the system total potential energy including each energy component and structural parameters of the formed conical helix is discussed to deeply explore the microstructure evolution, driving forces and dynamic mechanisms. In addition, the influence of chain length, cone angle, temperature, chain number, linked position of benzene rings and the form of Lennard-Jones potential on the helical encapsulation is further studied.

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) nanoindentation is the most effective method for determining the mechanical properties of soft biological materials and biomaterials at the nanoscale, with significant applications in many areas, including cancer diagnosis. However, a major drawback of this method is the complexity of the experimental procedure and data processing, which requires several calibration steps.To avoid this complexity, the AFM tip is usually approximated as a perfect cone.

Nanoparticle adhesion at liquid interfaces plays an important role in drug delivery, dust removal, the adsorption of aerosols, and controlled self-assembly. However, quantitative measurements of capillary interactions at the nanoscale are challenging, with most existing results at the micrometre to millimetre scale. Here, we combine atomic force microscopy (AFM) and computational simulations to investigate the adhesion and removal of nanoparticles from liquid interfaces as a function of the particles' geometry and wettability.

Wire drawing is one of the oldest and most common cold metal forming processes. Wire is drawn through a single die or a set of conical dies to make it longer and stronger. In the drawing die there are three geometrical parameters that affect the drawing force: die diameter, die angle and bearing length.
