چکیده

This paper presents the ElastoDynamics Toolbox (EDT) for MATLAB.1 EDT provides an extensive set of MATLAB functions to model seismic wave propagation in layered soils. It is based on the direct stiffness method and the thin layer method, presented by Kausel and Roësset. The toolbox is developed at K.U.Leuven, where it is used both for educational purposes and in research projects. It is used to solve a variety of problems governed by wave propagation in the soil, such as (1) site amplification, (2) the computation of dispersive surface waves in layered soils, and (3) the calculation of the forced response of the soil due to harmonic and transient loading. The present paper focuses on recent research applications of EDT in each of these categories. 1A trial version of the ElastoDynamics Toolbox for MATLAB can be requested on the following web page: http://www.kuleuven.be/bwm/edt.

A Novel Toolbox for Generating Realistic Biological Cell Geometries for Electromagnetic Microdosimetry

Researchers in bioelectromagnetics often require realistic tissue, cellular and sub-cellular geometry models for their simulations. However, biological shapes are often extremely irregular, while conventional geometrical modeling tools on the market cannot meet the demand for fast and efficient construction of irregular geometries. We have designed a free, user-friendly tool in MATLAB that comb...
