Purpose: Intra-cardiac echocardiography (ICE) has become an important tool for catheter ablation. Adoption of ICE imaging is still limited because of its prohibitively high cost.

Intracavity generated visible self-reconstructing Bessel-like laser beams by thermal effect [PDF]
(#br)In this paper we report the intracavity realization of visible reconstructing Bessel-like beams when a thin Nd:YVO 4 crystal is inserted in a diode-pumped Pr:YLF laser at 639.5 nm. The position of the thin crystal and the intracavity power determine

Efficient Continuous Wave-Laser Emission Of Pr-3+-Doped Fluorides At Room-Temperature
We report, to our knowledge for the first time, Continuous Wave (CW) laser emission at room temperature of Pr:LiYF4 (Pr:YLF) at six wavelengths: 522, 545, 607, 639.5, 720 and 907.4 nm.

Effect of self-stratification on sediment diffusivity in channel flows and boundary layers: a study using direct numerical simulations [PDF]
Sediment transport in nature comprises of bedload and suspended load, and precise modelling of these processes is essential for accurate sediment flux estimation.

Estimating the disequilibrium in denudation rates due to divide migration at the scale of river basins [PDF]
Basin-averaged denudation rates may locally exhibit a wide dispersion, even in areas where the topographic steady state is supposedly achieved regionally.

A comparison of structure from motion photogrammetry and the traversing micro-erosion meter for measuring erosion on shore platforms [PDF]
For decades researchers have used the micro-erosion meter and its successor the traversing micro-erosion meter to measure micro-scale rates of vertical erosion (downwearing) on shore platforms.

High sensitivity of palladium on porous silicon MSM photodetector [PDF]
In this work, the nanocrystalline porous silicon (PS) is prepared through the simple electrochemical etching of n-type Si (1 0 0) under the illumination of a 100 W incandescent white light.

A probabilistic framework for the cover effect in bedrock erosion [PDF]
The cover effect in fluvial bedrock erosion is a major control on bedrock channel morphology and long-term channel dynamics. Here, we suggest a probabilistic framework for the description of the cover effect that can be applied to field, laboratory ...

Mechanical Behavior of Fiber-Reinforced Soils under Undrained Triaxial Loading Conditions
The design of fiber-reinforced soil structures, such as embankments and pavements, can be carried out using the results of unconsolidated, undrained triaxial compression tests conducted on specimens at their “as-compacted” water content and analyzed in ...
