“Virtual” (Computed) Fractional Flow Reserve
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the "gold standard" for assessing the physiological significance of coronary artery disease during invasive coronary angiography. FFR-guided percutaneous coronary intervention improves patient outcomes and reduces stent insertion and cost; yet, due to several practical and operator related factors, it is used in

A Novel Digitalization Approach for Smart Materials – Ontology‐Based Access to Data and Models
In order to access heterogeneous material data and model‐based knowledge, the established ontology‐based data access (OBDA) is extended to include material models. This novel ontology‐based data and model access (OBDMA) enables the computation of new responses beyond stored data.

Effect of High (200 μg/kg per Minute) Adenosine Dose Infusion on Fractional Flow Reserve Variability
BackgroundVariations in distal coronary pressure (Pd)/aortic pressure (Pa) ratio during steady‐state hyperemia with standard (140 μg/kg per minute) adenosine dose may hamper accurate fractional flow reserve assessment.

AISI 304L stainless steel powder is mixed with silicon nitride (Si3N4) powder and processed by PBF‐LB/M, allowing partial retention of Si3N4. The numerical approach effectively predicts the Si3N4 powder homogeneity and N content distribution on the powder bed. Recent studies have focused on the alloying of nitrogen (N) in high‐alloy stainless steels by
