Methane and n-hexane ignition in a newly developed diaphragmless shock tube [PDF]
Shock tubes have been routinely used to generate reliable chemical kinetic data for gas-phase chemistry. The conventional diaphragm-rupture mode for shock tube operation presents many challenges that may ultimately affect the quality of chemical kinetics data.

Surface Design and Strength Analysis of Porous Linear Diaphragm
Titanium alloy curvature diaphragm is the main diaphragm type of existing flexible diaphragm couplings. Due to its thin thickness, its difficult curved surface processing and requires high precision, a porous linear diaphragm is improved in order to ...

Optimization Design of Diaphragm Profile based on Kriging Model
The failures of diaphragm couplings in application are mostly originated from fatigue failures of the diaphragm. To improve the fatigue performance of the diaphragm coupling,a optimization design method for the diaphragm profile parameters based on the ...

Blockage of the Ryanodine Receptor via Azumolene Does Not Prevent Mechanical Ventilation-Induced Diaphragm Atrophy. [PDF]
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for patients in respiratory failure. However, prolonged MV causes the rapid development of diaphragm muscle atrophy, and diaphragmatic weakness may contribute to difficult weaning from MV ...

A review of diaphragmless shock tubes for interdisciplinary applications [PDF]
Shock tubes have emerged as an effective tool for applications in various fields of research and technology. The conventional mode of shock tube operation employs a frangible diaphragm to generate shockwaves. The last half-century has witnessed significant efforts to replace this diaphragm-bursting method with fast-acting valves.

Background Diaphragm atrophy and dysfunction are consequences of mechanical ventilation and are determinants of clinical outcomes. We hypothesize that partial preservation of diaphragm function, such as during assisted modes of ventilation, will restore ...

Indices of Defective Autophagy in Whole Muscle and Lysosome Enriched Fractions From Aged D2-mdx Mice
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal, progressive muscle disease caused by the absence of functional dystrophin protein. Previous studies in mdx mice, a common DMD model, identified impaired autophagy with lysosomal insufficiency and impaired ...
