High Shear Stress‐Induced Endothelial Piezo1 Downregulation Promotes Intracranial Aneurysm Formation via the PDGF‐BB/PDGFRβ Paracrine Signaling Pathway

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2025.
HSS downregulates Piezo1 expression in ECs, which subsequently enhances PDGF‐BB expression through the YAP/β‐catenin signaling pathway. The elevated PDGF‐BB facilitates phenotypic transition of VSMCs via PDGFRβ binding, ultimately contributing to IA formation.

Physical Modeling and Fluid Dynamic Simulation of Steel Desulfurization by Reagent Injection through the Bottom of the Ladle

open access: yessteel research international, Volume 96, Issue 11, Page 165-176, November 2025.
The effects of the carrier gas flow rate, injected by tuyere into the bottom of the ladle, on the bubble size, velocity profile by particle image velocimetry and computational fluid dynamic techniques, mixing time, and mass transfer are investigated by means of laboratory experiments.

Heat transfer in a recirculation zone at steady-state and oscillating conditions - the back facing step test case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Steady state and transient heat transfer is a very important aspect of any combustion process. To properly simulate gas to wall heat transfer in a turbulent flow, an accurate prediction of the flow and the thermal boundary layer is required.

Transient hydrodynamics and free surface capture of an under-baffled stirred tank during stopping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The transient hydrodynamics and the free surface shape have been numerically predicted by CFD for an under-baffled agitated vessel during the stopping phase of the agitator, including the inertial period after the agitator has completely stopped.
