<div> We examine herein a simple model for the evolution in time of the pressure which a suddenly vaporized, ablating layer exerts upon the subjacent body. The model invokes a plausible construct of surface material instantaneously thrust into a gaseous regime governed by a Maxwell-Boltzmann phase space distribution.

Blood Pressure Estimation by Photoplethysmogram Decomposition into Hyperbolic Secant Waves
Photoplethysmographic (PPG) pulses contain information about cardiovascular parameters. In particular, blood pressure can be estimated using PPG pulse decomposition analysis, which assumes that a PPG pulse is composed of the original heart ejection blood

Pulse pressure and perioperative stroke [PDF]
Central pulse pressure (PP), a marker of vascular stiffness, is a novel indicator of risk for perioperative morbidity including ischemic stroke. Appreciation for the mechanism by which vascular stiffness leads to organ dysfunction along with understanding its clinical detection may lead to improved patient management.Vascular stiffness is associated ...

Fluid-structure interaction simulation of pulse propagation in arteries : numerical pitfalls and hemodynamic impact of a local stiffening [PDF]
When simulating the propagation of a pressure pulse in arteries, the discretization parameters (i.e. the time step size and the grid size) need to be chosen carefully in order to avoid a decrease in amplitude of the traveling wave due to numerical ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a disease of the aortic wall, which can progress to catastrophic rupture. Assessment of mechanical characteristics of AAA, such as aortic distensibility, may provide important insights to help identify at-risk patients ...

Composite pressure cell for pulsed magnets
Extreme pressures and high magnetic fields can affect materials in profound and fascinating ways. However, large pressures and fields are often mutually incompatible; the rapidly changing fields provided by pulsed magnets induce eddy currents in the metallic components used in conventional pressure cells, causing serious heating, forces, and vibration.

Applicability of pulse pressure variation: how many shades of grey?
Since its first description in 1999 [1], many studies have demonstrated the value of pulse pressure variation (PPV) as a predictor of fluid responsiveness.

An ultrasonic approach for contact stress mapping in machine joints and concentrated contacts [PDF]
The measurement of pressure at a contact in a machine part is important because contact stresses frequently lead to failure by seizure, wear or fatigue.
