Diffusion MRI and α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Status in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Positive α‐synuclein seed amplification assay (SAA) is a biomarker found in most people with Parkinson's disease (PD). We explored if free‐water (FW) imaging detects microstructural differences in the brains of patients with early PD with SAA+ or SAA– status.

Dean-flow-coupled elasto-inertial particle and cell focusing in symmetric serpentine microchannels

open access: yes, 2019
This work investigates particle focusing under Dean-flow-coupled elasto-inertial effects in symmetric serpentine microchannels. A small amount of polymers were added to the sample solution to tune the fluid elasticity, and allow particles to migrate ...

On Hydrodynamic Stability of Dean Flow by Using Energy Gradient Methods

open access: yes, 2018
In the present paper, we investigate the hydrodynamic instability of Dean flow under different Dean numbers ranging from 1 to 2500, curvature ratios from 0.0001 up to 1000 and temperatures ranging from 273.15 K to 373.15 K.

Impact of Cattaneo–Christov Heat and Mass Flux on MHD Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over an Extending Surface With Convective and Mass Flux Effects

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the flow of a magnetized hybrid nanofluid over a permeable stretching surface. The mass and thermal transport within the system is regulated using the Cattaneo–Christov flux theory. The fluid is additionally subjected to thermophoresis, chemical reaction, Brownian motion, and activation energy effects.

Axial and secondary flow study in a 90 deg bifurcation under pulsating conditions using PIV

open access: yes, 2002
Both axial and secondary flow were experimentally studied in a 90-degree bifurcation of square tubes, under pulsating conditions and equal branch flow rates. The examined peak Reynolds number (Re) was in the range 330–830, and the Womersley parameter (α)

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Waste Polystyrene Over Fe–B Composite Catalyst for Enhanced Liquid Fuel Production

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify

Stereo and time-resolved PIV for measuring pulsatile exhaust flow from a motorized engine

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2018
The present experimental study deals with a pulsatile turbulent flow simulating the exhaust flow of an automotive engine. In the experiments, a four-cylinder engine is used as an exhaust-flow generator to realize flow conditions close to those in an ...

Characterisation of the steady, laminar incompressible flow in toroidal pipes covering the entire curvature range

open access: yes, 2017
This work is concerned with a detailed investigation of the steady (laminar), incompressible flow inside bent pipes. In particular, a toroidal pipe is considered in an effort to isolate the effect of the curvature, δ, on the flow features, and to compare

A semi-analytical approach for temperature distribution in Dean flow

open access: yesHeat and Mass Transfer, 2013
Numerical simulations of the flow field and heat transfer require the conjugate solution of the Navier–Stokes and energy equations, a highly compute-intensive process. Here a semi-analytical approach is proposed to solve the energy equation in curved pipes. It requires the flow velocity field, the wall temperature, and the temperature at only one point
