Effect of the dynamic pressure on the shock wave structure in a rarefied polyatomic gas

, 2014
We study the shock wave structure in a rarefied polyatomic gas based on a simplified model of extended thermodynamics in which the dissipation is due only to the dynamic pressure.

Shock wave generated by high-energy electric spark discharge

, 2014
Shock wave generated by electric spark discharge was studied experimentally and the shock wave energy was evaluated in this paper. A pressure measurement system was established to study the pressure field of the electric spark discharge process. A series

Shock wave treatment improves nerve regeneration in the rat

Muscle and Nerve, 2013
Introduction: The aims of the experiments were to: (1) determine whether low‐energy shock wave treatment accelerates the recovery of muscle sensitivity and functionality after a nerve lesion; and (2) assess the effect of shock waves on the regeneration ...

Low-frequency unsteadiness in shock wave–turbulent boundary layer interaction

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2012
The low-frequency unsteadiness is characterized in the direct numerical simulation of a shock wave–turbulent boundary layer interaction generated by a $2{4}^{\ensuremath{\circ} } $ compression ramp in Mach 2.9 flow.

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for wound healing: Technology, mechanisms, and clinical efficacy

Wound Repair and Regeneration, 2012
For almost 30 years, extracorporeal shock wave therapy has been clinically implemented as an effective treatment to disintegrate urinary stones. This technology has also emerged as an effective noninvasive treatment modality for several orthopedic and ...

Role of helmet in the mechanics of shock wave propagation under blast loading conditions

Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2012
The effectiveness of helmets in extenuating the primary shock waves generated by the explosions of improvised explosive devices is not clearly understood. In this work, the role of helmet on the overpressurisation and impulse experienced by the head were

Corner separation effects for normal shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interactions in rectangular channels

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2012
Experiments are conducted to examine the mechanisms behind the coupling between corner separation and separation away from the corner when holding a high-Mach-number ${M}_{\infty } = 1. 5$ normal shock in a rectangular channel.

Interaction of a planar shock wave with a dense particle curtain: Modeling and experiments

, 2012
The interaction of a planar shock wave with a dense particle curtain is investigated through modeling and experiments. The physics in the interaction between a shock wave with a dense gas-particle mixture is markedly differently from that with a dilute ...

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) versus ureteroscopic management for ureteric calculi.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2011
BACKGROUND Ureteral stones frequently cause renal colic, and if left untreated, can lead to obstructive uropathy. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and ureteroscopy, with or without intracorporeal lithotripsy, are the most common interventions

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) Minimizes Ischemic Tissue Necrosis Irrespective of Application Time and Promotes Tissue Revascularization by Stimulating Angiogenesis

Annals of Surgery, 2011
Objective: To assess the time-dependent treatment effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in a standard rodent ischemic epigastric flap model. Background: ESWT has been shown to accelerate tissue repair in acute and chronic wounds and improve
