Detection of previous knee injuries using lower limb‐worn inertial measurement units: A cross‐sectional machine‐learning study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Previous knee injury increases the risk of subsequent injury, even after functional recovery, yet residual gait, running or load alterations often go undetected in routine assessment. Wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs) may enable scalable detection of such alterations outside laboratory settings.

Prandial Effects on Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Quantification in the Liver

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of detecting prandial (i.e., meal) induced changes in microvascular flow in the liver, including changes in the spatial distribution of flow velocities, using intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MRI. Methods Thirteen (n = 13) healthy volunteers underwent two liver MR exams: one preprandial after fasting and ...

Direct Measurement of Explosive Impulse From Contact to the Ultra‐Near Field

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurement of impulse from explosive charges in contact and ultra‐near‐field regimes remains poorly characterised due to the short duration of loading, high strain rates, and the difficulty of obtaining direct momentum‐based measurements.
