Pulse contour analysis: a valid assessment of central arterial stiffness in children? [PDF]
In adults the contour analysis of peripheral pressure waves in the upper limb reflects central aortic stiffness. Here, we wanted to demonstrate the appropriateness of pulse contour analysis to assess large artery stiffness in children.

Broader, flatter optical spectra of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers for a wavelength-division multiplexing source [PDF]
Using the time domain master equation for a complex electric-field pulse envelope, we find analytical results for the optical spectra of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers. The analysis includes the effect of optical nonlinearity of semiconductor

Plasma diagnostics of an EIT wave observed by Hinode/EIS and SDO/AIA
We present plasma diagnostics of an EIT wave observed with high cadence in Hinode/EIS sit-and-stare spectroscopy and SDO/AIA imagery obtained during the HOP-180 observing campaign on 2011 February 16.

On the measurement of dislocation damping forces at high dislocation velocity [PDF]
In direct mobility experiments in single crystals, dislocation velocity is studied as a function of stress by the application of short-duration stress pulses. The stress pulse consists of a loading wave, followed microseconds later, by an unloading wave.

Measuring Blood Pulse Wave Velocity with Bioimpedance in Different Age Groups
In this project, we have studied the use of electrical impedance cardiography as a possible method for measuring blood pulse wave velocity, and hence be an aid in the assessment of the degree of arteriosclerosis. Using two different four-electrode setups,

Arterial stiffness is considered an index of vascular aging. The brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) method is widely used because of its proven effectiveness; and the pulse wave velocity measurement method using both electrocardiogram (ECG) and ...

Observations of time delayed all-optical routing in a slow light regime
We report an observation of a delayed all-optical routing/switching phenomenon based on ultraslow group velocity of light via nondegenerate four-wave mixing processes in a defected solid medium. Unlike previous demonstrations of enhanced four-wave mixing
