Toward Optimized Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) and Compartmental T2 Mapping in Abdominal Organs

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To quantitatively assess the bias in the intravoxel incoherent motions (IVIM)–derived pseudo‐diffusion volume fraction (f) caused by the differences in relaxation times between the tissue and fluid compartments, and to develop a two‐dimensional (b‐value‐TE) fitting approach for simultaneous T2 and IVIM parameter estimation along with ...

Simulation‐Informed Evaluation of Microvascular Parameter Mapping for Diffusion MR Imaging of Solid Tumours

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose We aim to inform the design of new diffusion MRI (dMRI) approaches for microvasculature quantification that enhance the biological specificity of imaging towards cancer. Methods We adopted simulation‐informed modelling of the vascular dMRI signal. We synthesised signals from 1500 synthetic vascular networks, for a variety of protocols (

Motion‐Compensated Diffusion Imaging With Phase‐Contrast for Robust Quantification of Regional Cerebral Blood Flow

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate a motion‐compensated diffusion imaging with phase‐contrast (MC‐DIP) technique for mitigating errors in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) quantification caused by physiological brain motion. Methods Diffusion‐weighted images were acquired in 11 healthy volunteers on a 3.0 T MRI system using three gradient ...

Effects of Different Projectile Nose Shapes on the Impact Performance of the Aluminium 2024 Thin Plate

Polytechnic Journal
In this study, the impact performance of the Al2024 thin plate target was determined through a numerical approach. Two different-nosed hard steel projectiles, including a blunt and a sphere, were used in order to obtain the ballistic impact of the target.

Tuning the Morphology of Self‐Assembled Nanopatterns on MgO(001) Surfaces by Sequential Broad‐Beam Ion Irradiation

physica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.

Sampling, Mobility, and Anchoring in Small‐Body Sampling Robots: A Comprehensive Review

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Small‐body sampling robots are exploration systems that perform contact, sampling, and stable operations on microgravity bodies such as asteroids and comets. The authors review representative robot architectures and key technologies, focusing on the mechanisms, evolution, and coupling of sampling, mobility, and anchoring.
