The First World War at Sea: Death, Commemoration and Cultural Remembrance

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the ever‐increasing body of work devoted to war memorials, national days of remembrance and the commemoration of the First World War in Britain, academic focus remains firmly on the commemoration of the First World War on land. Yet, while the number of people who died at sea paled in comparison to their counterparts on the battlefield ...

Comparison of a Miniaturized Implantable Two‐Stage Rotodynamic Blood Pump to Equivalent Single‐Stage Concepts

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the potential of a multistage pump design to enhance hemocompatibility in left ventricular assist devices. We found that the two‐stage concept offers favorable hemolysis measures compared to single‐stage designs, as the reduction in peak shear stresses outweighs the disadvantage associated with prolonged residence time ...

Shaping the Flow: Impact of Blade Shape on Performance and Hemocompatibility in Rotodynamic Blood Pumps

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Blade shapes (leading‐edge geometry and thickness) in rotodynamic blood pumps were systematically evaluated. Thinner blades improve pump efficiency by reducing blockage effects, while neither blade thickness nor leading‐edge geometry shows clear hemocompatibility benefits. Overall, blade shape has a limited impact on hemocompatibility, indicating it is

The De Giorgi's method as applied to the regularity theory for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

open access: yes, 2008
textThe first part of this thesis is devoted to a regularity criterion for solutions of the Incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in terms of regularity of the solutions along the streamlines.

Hierarchical Differentiable Fluid Simulation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce a two‐step algorithm that significantly reduces memory usage for solving control problems using differentiable fluid simulation techniques: our method first optimizes for bulk forces at reduced resolution, then refines local details over sub‐domains while maintaining differentiability. In trading runtime for memory, it enables optimization

A noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals a noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction. Shear stress modulates Jagged1 expression and subcellular localization. Loss of Jagged1 attenuates mechanotransduction and reduces Src, VEGFR2, and ERK signaling. Direct mechanical stimulation of Jagged1 induces activation of these signaling pathways.

Immobilized CuCl2/TiO2 photocatalysts for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The photocatalytic aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde was investigated using free and alginate‐immobilized CuCl2 and/or TiO2 (P25) catalysts under UV irradiation. Immobilization enabled catalyst recovery and maintained high benzaldehyde selectivity but led to reduced activity due to internal oxygen diffusion limitations, which were ...

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms

open access: yesThe 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 ...
