Longitudinal 4D Flow MRI‐Derived Wall Shear Stress in Patients With an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 4D flow MRI‐derived parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) may improve abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression prediction. Validation of this biomarker is needed, but longitudinal data are lacking. Purpose Investigate longitudinal WSS changes and associations with AAA morphology. Study Type Prospective.

Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

Centerline Discrepancies in HULL Axisymmetric Calculations [PDF]

, 1993
Abstract : Axisymmetric calculations using the HULL hydrocode exhibit peculiar jetlike artifacts near the axis of symmetry. A series of numerical experiments were performed to determine the cause of this behavior. Governing equations and boundary conditions in the HYDRO subroutine were modified and tested.

Thermal Planar and Radial Free Jets for An Ostwald‐de Waele Fluid With Shear‐Rate Dependent Thermal Diffusivity

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The planar and radial thermal free jets for forced convection of a non‐Newtonian power‐law fluid are investigated. The thermal diffusivity is dependent on the shear‐rate and is not a constant. The flow in planar and radial thermal free jets is governed by the momentum, continuity and energy balance equations. In the stream‐function formulation,

Semi‐Automatic Assessment of Crohn's Disease Activity by Combined Analysis of Bowel Lesions and Creeping Fat

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate Crohn‐BOOST, an open‐source tool enabling semi‐automatic segmentation of intestinal lesions and creeping fat on magnetic resonance enterography (MR Enterography), and to assess whether quantitative metrics derived from these segmentations relate to radiological disease activity scored with simplified MaRIA ...

An Improved Mesh Stiffness Model for a Gear Tooth With Double Cracks on Both Sides Considering Opened and Closed States

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on the failure mechanisms of gears with multiple cracks has gained widespread attention. Among these, the study of the mesh stiffness characteristics of gears with multiple cracks is crucial for optimizing gear design and improving transmission reliability.

Numerical Insights Into the Resistance Reduction Mechanisms of Forward Tapered Transoms in High‐Speed Catamaran: A Computational Fluid Dynamics‐Based Study

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the hydrodynamic influence of forward transom tapering on a displacement catamaran hull using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Five taper configurations ranging from a vertical transom base design to a fully tapered stern (1.00B) were evaluated over a wide Froude number range (Fr = .3 to 1.0).

A Peridynamic Framework for Modeling Progressive Failure in Porous Sandstone Indentation

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A state‐based peridynamic model is proposed to simulate the failure mechanisms in porous rocks, using Bentheim sandstone as a specific example. Experimental observations reveal a transition from brittle to ductile failure under increasing triaxial compression. This behavior is attributed to pore compaction. The peridynamic model is enhanced to

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular
