    Finding Endpoints on a 3D Vector | Simple Method and Formula

    I'm trying to find the simplest way to locate points on a 3D vector. I have 2 points (a,b,c) (d,e,f) which define a 3D vector. I know the midpoint between those points. [(a,b,c)+(d,e,f)]/2 I have a linear "object" with a known length L and I want to find the endpoints (u,v,w),(x,y,z) of...

    Localizing a point in a circle by 2 points on the circumference

    Let me rephrase this request. I'm not looking for anyone to do it for me, I'm just looking for insights or tips. I know that I will need to go about creating a vector or line segment to represent the panel, construct a normal vector from the surface of the panel at a specified point (perhaps...

    Which Engineering Specialty is Right for Me?

    Medical physics is an awesome job prospect. I majored in physics and minored in biology, meanwhile doing medical physics research at my state university medical center. I'm now a Ph.D. student in Biomedical Engineering, which is a really hot field with major practical application to "real...

    Localizing a point in a circle by 2 points on the circumference

    I'm looking to find the proper formulas and/or Matlab code to localize a point within a circle given 2 points on the circumference. The points will be acquired by an image panel that rotates about a fixed axis. The hitch is that I am using flat image panels that are tangent to the circle at...
