A numerical solution of the wave equation for torsional impact of a shaft which contains a single step and a rigid body at one end is found using the method of characteristics. The results are based on discontinuous stresses and elementary wave theory at the step. An experiment verified the predicted results, but showed that the actual impact stresses will always be slightly less since they are not discontinuous, as assumed. Some qualitative and quantitative generalizations are made concerning the expected maximum impact stress.

Abstract Three techniques which employ different approaches for obtaining a method of characteristics solution for chemical non-equilibrium flows are reviewed and compared. Two features of the solution process are evaluated to determine their effect on the accuracy of the solution. The first aspect to be considered is the integration of the stiff conservation equations in a unit process. A new fifth-order accurate, multi-step integration routine is contrasted with a first-order accurate, single-step forward differencing scheme. The second comparison is designed to determine if a solution of the flowfield along continuous streamlines is superior to one along discontinuous segments of the streamlines. Tests are performed, using a chemical model describing the supersonic combustion of H2-air. Calculations of single unit processes are used to validate the techniques and to determine suitable grid sizes. Solutions for constant area duct flow show that the techniques which use the multi-step integration routine are more accurate. Results from the constant area duct test, for an initial pressure of 3.685 atm, show that a method of characteristics technique which utilizes continuous streamlines is able to converge at a grid size two orders of magnitude larger than that needed by a technique which uses discontinuous segments of streamlines.

In this article, we study the classical solution of the mixed problem in a quarter of a plane and a half-plane for a one-dimensional wave equation. On the bottom of the boundary, Cauchy conditions are specified, and the second of them has a discontinuity of the first kind at one point. Smooth boundary condition is set at the side boundary. The solution is built using the method of characteristics in an explicit analytical form. Uniqueness is proved and conditions are established under which a piecewise-smooth solution exists. The problem with linking conditions is considered.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a potentially fatal adverse event and a leading cause for pre- and post-marketing drug withdrawal. Several multinational DILI initiatives have now recommended a panel of protein and microRNA (miRNA) biomarkers that can detect early liver injury and inform about mechanistic basis. This manuscript describes the development of seqCOMBO, a unique combo-multiplexed assay which combines the dynamic chemical labelling approach and an antibody-dependant method on the Luminex MAGPIX system. SeqCOMBO enables a versatile multiplexing platform to perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of proteins and miRNAs in patient serum samples simultaneously. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first method to profile protein and miRNA biomarkers to diagnose DILI in a single-step assay.
