Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 28, Page 5136-5152, 28 November 2025.Abstract Pavement life cycle management (LCM) is essential for assessing the long‐term environmental and economic impacts of roadway infrastructure by means of pavement life cycle assessment (LCA) and life cycle cost analysis (LCCA). However, pavement LCA and LCCA studies frequently overlook the use phase due to the limited availability of performance ...

A Dry‐Mechanical Approach for Scrap Recycling of Dry‐Processed Lithium Ion Battery Cathodes
Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 39, October 21, 2025.A dry‐mechanical, non‐toxic, and profitable delamination and granulation process is designed for the scrap recycling of polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)‐based dry‐processed cathodes. The low adhesion of the PTFE‐based composite to the current collector enables the mechanical, non‐destructive recovery of the composite, leaving the secondary particle ...
