Managing Catheter Knotting in Pulse‐Select Pulsed Field Ablation: Mechanisms and a Practical Strategy for Resolution

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia
Background Pulsed field ablation (PFA) using the PulseSelect catheter is effective for atrial fibrillation but may occasionally result in catheter deformation or knotting.

Bending rigidity, supercoiling and knotting of ring polymers: models and simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The first part of the thesis was focussed on the interplay between knotting propensity and bending rigidity of equilibrated rings polymers. We found a surprising result: the equilibrium incidence of knots has a strongly non- monotonic dependence on ...

Biodegradable and Biocompatible Functional Polymers for Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biodegradable and biocompatible functional polymers integrate electrical, mechanical, and stimuli‐responsive functionalities while enabling programmed degradation under physiological conditions. This review introduces recent advances in conductive, shape‐memory, self‐healing, photocurable, and adhesive polymer systems, emphasizing material design ...

TORUS KNOTS ARE FOURIER-(1,1,2) KNOTS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2009
Every torus knot can be represented as a Fourier-(1,1,2) knot which is the simplest possible Fourier representation for such a knot. This answers a question of Kauffman and confirms the conjecture made by Boocher, Daigle, Hoste and Zheng. In particular, the torus knot Tp,q can be parameterized as [Formula: see text]

Knot complexity and the probability of random knotting [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2002
The probability of a random polygon (or a ring polymer) having a knot type $K$ should depend on the complexity of the knot $K$. Through computer simulation using knot invariants, we show that the knotting probability decreases exponentially with respect to knot complexity. Here we assume that some aspects of knot complexity are expressed by the minimal

Mechanical Programming of PEGDA‐β‐CD Polyrotaxane‐Based Hydrogels via Host–Guest Molecular Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanically programmable hydrogel for tissue engineering is developed by modulating the molecular threading density of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate‐β‐cyclodextrin (PEGDA‐β‐CD) polyrotaxane and combining it with β‐CD‐modified gelatin. The polyrotaxane‐guided transition from disordered pores to laminar microstructures enables precise tuning ...

Folding pathways of a knotted protein with a realistic atomistic force field. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2013
We report on atomistic simulation of the folding of a natively-knotted protein, MJ0366, based on a realistic force field. To the best of our knowledge this is the first reported effort where a realistic force field is used to investigate the folding ...

CATEGORICAL GROUPS, KNOTS AND KNOTTED SURFACES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Knot Theory and Its Ramifications, 2007
We define a knot invariant and a 2-knot invariant from any finite categorical group. We calculate an explicit example for the Spun Trefoil.
