Propulsive performance of a body with a traveling-wave surface

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2012
A body with a traveling-wave surface (TWS) is investigated by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation numerically to understand the mechanisms of a novel propulsive strategy. In this study, a virtual model of a foil with a flexible surface which performs a traveling-wave movement is used as a free swimming body.

Prognostic Value of Neurofilament Light Chain and Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein in ALD‐Related Myelopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X‐ALD) is a neurometabolic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ABCD1, leading to slowly progressive spinal cord disease in nearly all affected men. Sensitive biomarkers to quantify disease severity and predict progression are needed for clinical care and trial design.

Energy efficiency of ship propulsive systems: rudder-propeller interaction

open access: yes, 2010
The rudder of a ship is used to maintain its direction and for changing course. As such the goal of rudder design is to maximise sideforce for control of course while minimising resistive drag.

Progressive Parkinsonism in PPP2R5D‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PPP2R5D‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (Houge–Janssens syndrome type 1) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by macrocephaly, intellectual disability, and epilepsy. Progressive parkinsonism is an emerging adult phenotype that neurologists should be aware of since timely genetic diagnosis opens the door to disease‐modifying

Performance of laser ablation propulsion with a high-repetition rate and high-power laser

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
We investigated the propulsive performance of laser ablation propulsion using a high-power and highly repetitive pulsed laser. We demonstrated 100 shots of burst laser irradiation with an aluminum target using repetition frequencies of 0.017 Hz and 1 kHz.

Current Status and Challenges in Data Collection for Aerospace Coatings Deposited by Plasma Spraying

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An innovative approach has been integrated into the GRENAT project to optimize plasma spraying and coating performance. Raw materials are accelerated and melted in the plasma generated by torches, creating coatings. Monitoring sensors collect process data which are combined with ex situ characterization data.
