Steady‐state free precession for T2* relaxometry: All echoes in every readout with k‐space aliasing
Abstract Purpose Multi‐echo gradient echo imaging is useful for a range of applications including relaxometry, susceptibility mapping, and quantifying relative proportions of fat and water. This relies primarily on long‐TR multi‐echo gradient echo sequences (FLASH), which by design isolate one signal component (i.e., echo) at a time per readout.

Quadratic‐boost‐double‐flyback converter [PDF]
Combining low‐voltage power sources with loads that require high‐voltage levels is a challenge, especially for power devices above 500 W. In this context, this study presents a new dc–dc high‐gain converter using coupled inductors. The new converter uses only one switch and output capacitors with low values.

Evaluation Method of Flyback Converter Behaviors on Common-Mode Noise
Common-mode (CM) conduction electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a challenge for switched-mode power supply (SMPS) designers. A flyback converter is a traditional topology used in low-power isolated applications.

Dielectric Barrier Discharge Electrothermal Heating and Additive Manufacturing of Thermoset Parts
3D printing of thermosets is difficult due to the low yield stress of most uncured resins. However, by locally heating resin using a non‐equilibrium plasma, layers can be partially cured and printing enabled. Plasma application to a liquid epoxy/carbon nanotube composite is observed to cause rapid surface heating and oxidation of the cured layers ...

Series transistors isolate amplifier from flyback voltage [PDF]
Circuit enables high sawtooth currents to be passed through a deflection coil and isolate the coil driving amplifier from the flyback voltage. It incorporates a switch consisting of transistors in series with the driving amplifier and deflection coil ...

Evaluating metabolites in patients with major depressive disorder who received mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and healthy controls using short echo MRSI at 7 Tesla. [PDF]
ObjectivesOur aim was to evaluate differences in metabolite levels between unmedicated patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and healthy controls, to assess changes in metabolites in patients after they completed an 8-week course of mindfulness ...
