We prove the multiplicity of ordered positive radial solutions for a semilinear elliptic problem defined on an exterior domain. The key argument is to prove the existence of the third solution in presence of two known solutions. For this, we obtain some partial results related to three solutions theorem for certain singular boundary value problems. Proof are mainly based on the upper and lower solutions method and degree theory.

We consider the behavior of positive radial solutions (or, briefly, pp.r.s.) of the equation $$ (1.1) ^\Delta u + \lambda f(u) = 0 in\Omega, _u = 0 on \partial\Omega, $$ where $\Omega = {x \in R^n$\mid$A < $\mid$x$\mid$ < B}$ is an annulus in $R^n, n \geq 2, \lambda > 0 and f \geq 0$ is superlinear in u and satisfies f(0) = 0.

This research deals with the analytical solution of a curved beam with different shapes made of functionally graded materials (FGM's). It was assumed that modulus of elasticity is graded along the thickness direction of curved beam based on a power function. The beam was loaded under pure bending. Using the linear theory of elasticity, the general relation for radial distribution of radial and circumferential stresses of arbitrary cross section was derived. The effect of nonhomogeneity was considered on the radial distribution of circumferential stress. This behavior can be investigated for positive and negative values of nonhomogeneity index. The novelty of this study is application of the obtained results for different combination of material properties and cross sections. Achieved results indicate that employing different nonhomogeneity index and selection of various types of cross sections (rectangular, triangular or circular) can control the distribution of radial and circumferential stresses as designer want and propose new solutions by these options. Increasing the nonhomogeneity index for positive or negative values of nonhomogeneity index and for various cross sections presents different behaviors along the thickness direction. In order to validate the present research, the results of this research can be compared with previous result for reachable cross sections and non homogeneity index.

In this paper, we give several sufficient conditions ensuring that any positive radial solution (u, v) of the following ${\gamma}$-Laplacian systems in the whole space ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ has the components symmetry property $u{\equiv}v$ $$\{\array{-div({\mid}{\nabla}u{\mid}^{{\gamma}-2}{\nabla}u)=f(u,v)\text{ in }{\mathbb{R}}^n,\\-div({\mid}{\nabla}v{\mid}^{{\gamma}-2}{\nabla}v)=g(u,v)\text{ in }{\mathbb{R}}^n.}$$ Here n > ${\gamma}$, ${\gamma}$ > 1. Thus, the systems will be reduced to a single ${\gamma}$-Laplacian equation: $$-div({\mid}{\nabla}u{\mid}^{{\gamma}-2}{\nabla}u)=f(u)\text{ in }{\mathbb{R}}^n$$. Our proofs are based on suitable comparation principle arguments, combined with properties of radial solutions.

We deal with the existence of positive radial solutions concentrating on spheres for the following class of elliptic system $$\large(S) \hfill{400} \{\array{-{\varepsilon}^2{\Delta}u+V_1(x)u=K(x)Q_u(u,v)\;in\;\mathbb{R}^N,\\-{\varepsilon}^2{\Delta}v+V_2(x)v=K(x)Q_v(u,v)\;in\;\mathbb{R}^N,\\u,v{\in}W^{1,2}(\mathbb{R}^N),\;u,v&gt;0\;in\;\mathbb{R}^N,}$$ where ${\varepsilon}$ is a small positive parameter; $V_1$, $V_2{\in}C^0(\mathbb{R}^N,[0,{\infty}))$ and $K{\in}C^0(\mathbb{R}^N,[0,{\infty}))$ are radially symmetric potentials; Q is a $(p+1)$-homogeneous function and p is subcritical, that is, 1 < $p$ < $2^*-1$, where $2^*=2N/(N-2)$ is the critical Sobolev exponent for $N{\geq}3$.

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of positive solutions to the elliptic equation (0.1) ${\Delta}u+|x|^{l_1}u^p+|x|^{l_2}u^q=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We obtain a conclusion that, for n $\geq$ 3, -2 < $l_2$ < $l_1$ $\leq$ 0 and q > p > 1, any positive radial solution to (0.1) has the following properties: $lim_{r{\rightarrow}{\infty}}r^{\frac{2+l_1}{p-1}}\;u$ and $lim_{r{\rightarrow}0}r^{\frac{2+l_2}{q-1}}\;u$ always exist if $\frac{n+1_1}{n-2}$ < p < q, $p\;{\neq}\;\frac{n+2+2l_1}{n-2}$, $q\;{\neq}\;\frac{n+2+2l_2}{n-2}$. In addition, we prove that the singular positive solution of (0.1) is unique under some conditions.

High NA objective design by using SELFOC materials was studied, and two kinds of objective for optical pick-up were designed. The SELFOC materials have radial gradient index distribution, and it gives additional degree of freedom in optical design. Therefore, we expect that optical design of high NA objective without aspheric surface will be possible. In this study, the variation of ms spot diameter was investigated as a function of quadratic constant and refractive index on axis for various combinations of axial thickness and entrance pupil diameter. For the survey, Code V was used for optimization and evaluation of the objective lenses. The result suggested that larger quadratic constant and higher refractive index on axis could give us better imaging performance for all combinations of axial thickness and pupil diameter. Based on the survey, we designed high NA objectives for DVR. There were two kinds of design solution consisting two spherical SELFOC lenses. The solution I had positive-positive lens configuration with short over-all-length, but it had poor off-axial performance compared with the solution II. The solution II had negative-positive lens configuration with good off-axial imaging performance. But the solution II had some disadvantages, long over-all-length and large diameter of the second lens.

It is shown that the inversion of the undamped Bloch equation for an amplitude-modulated broadband π/2 pulse can be precisely treated as an inverse scattering problem for a Schrodinger equation on the positive semiaxis. The pulse envelope is closely related to the central potential and asymptotically the wave function takes the form of a regular solution of the radial Schrodinger equation for s-wave scattering. An integral equation, which allows the calculation of the pulse amplitude (the potential) from the phase shift of the asymptotic solution, is derived. An exact analytical inversion of the integral equation shows that the detuning-independent π/2 pulse amplitude is given by a delta function. The equation also provides a means to calculate numerically approximate π/2 pulses for broadband excitation.

The technique of radial artery cannulation and its complications are well documented, but serious complications are rare. This is a report of one case of amputation of wrist due to finger necrosis developed from the radial artery cannulation in patient who had craniectomy surgery. This 52-year-old 70kg male underwent subdural hematoma removal surgery. Right radial artery cannulation was carried out percutaneously using 22 gauge Teflon extracath needle after modified Allen's test appeared to be positive. It was intermittently flushed by heparinized solution. His arterial blood pressure was maintained 100/70 - 110/80mmHg and 5 units of banked whole blood and 1 unit of fresh frozen plasma were transfused during 8-hours operation. Cannula was removed on the 9th hour after operation because that was obstructed. On the 12th hour after removal of cannula, his right hand noted to be cool and cyanotic. So, warm towel and hot bag applied continuonsly on the right hand and the right stellate ganglion block was carried out everyday for 4 times. However, on the 10th day after removal of cannula, necrotic change of all fingers of the right hand became worse and skin of fingers were shrunken. Therefore, disarticulation of the right wrist carried out on the 71th day of his hospitalization.
