Previous investigations devoted to the optimization of nonspherical gold nanoparticles for photothermal therapy (PTT) encountered two issues, namely, the appropriate selection of objective functions and the processing of particle random orientations. In this study, these issues were resolved, and accurate optimization results were obtained for the three typical nonspherical gold nanoparticles (nanospheroid, nanocylinder, and nanorod) by using the T-matrix method. The dependence of the optimization results on the excitation wavelength and the refractive index of tissue was investigated. Regardless of the excitation wavelength and tissue type, gold nanospheroids were found to be the most effective therapeutic agents for PTT. The light absorption ability of optimized nanoparticles could be enhanced by using a laser with a longer wavelength. Finally, the design tolerance for the different sizes of nanoparticles was provided.

Prediction of trajectory of drag anchor is important for the design and selection of drag anchor. Prediction based on yield envelope characterizing the anchor behavior under combined loading provides a promising method. However, the existing application of the yield envelope method ignores the effect of the fluke inclination angle by assuming a horizontally placed anchor fluke. This study aims to investigate the behavior of inclined fluke, which is the practical case during installation. The effects of the fluke inclination angle and embedment depth ratio on the anchor behavior in uniform clay under unidirectional loading and combined loading are investigated. It is found that the effect of the fluke inclination angle on the unidirectional capacity factors is mainly for anchor with embedment depth ratio less than 3. This results in the large difference of the size of the yield envelopes for fluke with same smaller embedment depth ratio but different fluke inclination angle, while the effect is minor on the shape of the yield envelope for such cases. However, there is large difference in the shape and size of the shallow yield envelopes for fluke with different embedment depth ratios and inclination angles.
