PDE Face: A Novel 3D Face Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
YesWe introduce a novel approach to face models, which exploits the use of Partial Differential Equations (PDE) to generate the 3D face. This addresses some common problems of existing face models.

Shape Morphing Using PDE Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
YesA methodology for shape morphing using partial differential equation (PDE) surfaces is presented in this work. The use of the PDE formulation shows how shape morphing can be based on a boundary-value approach by which intermediate shapes can be ...

Parametric Representations of Facial Expressions on PDE-Based Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
YesParameterisation of facial expressions on PDE surface representations of human faces are presented in this work. Taking advantage of the boundary-value approach inherent to Bloor-Wilson PDE method, facial expressions are achieved by manipulating the ...

Inhibition of phosphodiesterase suppresses allergic lung inflammation by regulating MCP-1 in an OVA-induced asthma murine model with co-exposure to lipopolysaccharide

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Objective Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease that can lead to severe problems with the respiratory system. This study aimed to evaluate the suppression of allergic airway inflammation of an asthma murine model by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX),

PDE-based Facial Animation: Making the Complex Simple [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
YesDirect parameterisation is among the most widely used facial animation techniques but requires complicated ways to animate face models which have complex topology.

Modeling soil CO2 production and transport with dynamic source and diffusion terms: testing the steady-state assumption using DETECT v1.0 [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2018
The flux of CO2 from the soil to the atmosphere (soil respiration, Rsoil) is a major component of the global carbon (C) cycle. Methods to measure and model Rsoil, or partition it into different components, often rely on the assumption that soil CO2 ...

Scrutinization of second law analysis and viscous dissipation on Reiner-RivlinNanofluid with the effect of bioconvection over a rotating disk

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
In comparison to Newtonian fluids, non-Newtonian fluids have fascinating features in heat transportation. Here, newly type of Reiner-Rivlinnanoliquid flow over the revolving disk for viscous dissipation (VD) is being explored in a multiple-slip effect ...

In vitro activity of Pithecellobium dulce and Lysiloma acapulcensis on exogenous development stages of sheep gastrointestinal strongyles

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2014
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of two lyophilised aqueous extracts of Lysiloma acapulcensis (LAE) and Phitecellobium dulce (PDE) tree leaves on in vitro assessment of hatching of eggs, larval development and migration of ...

Differential control of Yersinia pestis biofilm formation in vitro and in the flea vector by two c-di-GMP diguanylate cyclases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Yersinia pestis forms a biofilm in the foregut of its flea vector that promotes transmission by flea bite. As in many bacteria, biofilm formation in Y. pestis is controlled by intracellular levels of the bacterial second messenger c-di-GMP. Two Y. pestis

Long-Term PDE-5A Inhibition Improves Myofilament Function in Left and Right Ventricular Cardiomyocytes through Partially Different Mechanisms in Diabetic Rat Hearts

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction are frequent complications of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Here we aimed to characterize RV and left ventricular (LV) remodeling and its prevention by vardenafil (a
