Passive scalar transport in peripheral regions of random flows [PDF]
We investigate statistical properties of the passive scalar near boundaries (walls) in random (turbulent) flows assuming weakness of its diffusion. Then at advanced stages of the passive scalar mixing its unmixed residue is concentrated in a narrow diffusive layer near the wall and its transport to bulk goes through the peripheral region (laminar ...

A new role for exhaled nitric oxide as a functional marker of peripheral airway caliber changes: a theoretical study [PDF]
Though considered as an inflammation marker, exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) was shown to be sensitive to airway caliber changes to such an extent that it might be considered as a marker of them. It is thus important to understand how these changes and their localization mechanically affect the total NO flux penetrating the airway lumen (JawNO), hence FENO,

Probing the robustness of nested multi-layer networks [PDF]
We consider a multi-layer network with two layers, $\mathcal{L}_{1}$, $\mathcal{L}_{2}$. Their intra-layer topology shows a scale-free degree distribution and a core-periphery structure. A nested structure describes the inter-layer topology, i.e., some nodes from $\mathcal{L}_{1}$, the generalists, have many links to nodes in $\mathcal{L}_{2 ...

On Dispersion of a Reactive Solute in a Pulsatile Flow of a Two-Fluid Model
The present paper is a study on dispersion of reactive solute in an oscillatory flow of a two-fluid, three-layer Casson-Newtonian continuum using Aris-Barton’s approach. A two-fluid model of blood flow has been considered, the fluid in the central region

Automatic segmentation of prostate zones [PDF]
Convolutional networks have become state-of-the-art techniques for automatic medical image analysis, with the U-net architecture being the most popular at this moment. In this article we report the application of a 3D version of U-net to the automatic segmentation of prostate peripheral and transition zones in 3D MRI images.
