Parental Stress and Disability in Offspring: A Snapshot during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Brain Sciences, 2021
Parenting a child with a disability, such as neurodevelopmental disorders and genetic syndromes, implies a high level of stress. During the COVID-19 outbreak—as a period implying additional challenges—few studies have specifically investigated caregivers’

3D-PTV Measuring onBubble and Liquid Velocities of a Single Bubble Jet

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2013
This experimental research concerns a simple air-bubblejet from a bottom nozzle in water. We try to conduct the measurements of the flow by applying a three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry (3D-PTV) technique, in order to specify both bubble ...

Randomized crossover comparison of proportional assist ventilation and patient-triggered ventilation in extremely low birth weight infants with evolving chronic lung disease [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Refinement of ventilatory techniques remains a challenge given the persistence of chronic lung disease of preterm infants. Objective: To test the hypothesis that proportional assist ventilation ( PAV) will allow to lower the ventilator ...

3D-PTV measurement verified by UVP for unsteady and three-dimensional flow inside a suction sump

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2016
Our aim is to understand the complicated flow inside a suction sump in the vertical-wet-pit-pump configuration. The information of unsteady and three-dimensional flow structures is useful, not only for this complicated flow but also for other complicated

MR imaging-guided vacuum assisted breast biopsy: Radiological-pathological correlation and underestimation rate in pre-surgical assessment

European Journal of Radiology Open, 2020
Background: Magnetic Resonance(MR) guided percutaneous procedures(MRgVABB) have been developed and largely employed to reduce the need of surgical biopsies for suspicious lesions which can be detected only by MR(MR-only lesion). The present study aims to

Dosimetric validation of a magnetic resonance image gated radiotherapy system using a motion phantom and radiochromic film. [PDF]

, 2017
PurposeMagnetic resonance image (MRI) guided radiotherapy enables gating directly on the target position. We present an evaluation of an MRI-guided radiotherapy system's gating performance using an MRI-compatible respiratory motion phantom and ...

Basic Space Structure of Bubble-Jet Plume Using Consecutive 3D-PTV

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2009
This experimental research concerns the air-bubble-jet flow in water. We try to apply three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry to the flow. Air bubbles are regarded as tracer particles.

Oil Phase Velocity Measurement of Oil-Water Two-Phase Flow with Low Velocity and High Water Cut Using the Improved ORB and RANSAC Algorithm

Measurement Science Review, 2020
Velocity is an important parameter for fluid flow characteristics in profile logging. Particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) technology is often used to study the flow characteristics of oil wells with low flow velocity and high water cut, and the key to ...
