Advances in suction measurements using high suction tensiometers [PDF]

Engineering Geology, 2013
Significant advances in unsaturated soils testing have been gained through the development of high suction tensiometers allowing direct measurement of suction beyond 100. kPa. This has allowed the implementation of techniques that measure and control suction directly, where the soil is tested in the same conditions as in nature.

An in vitro model to study suction events by a ventricular assist device: validation with clinical data

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: Ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are a valuable therapy for end-stage heart failure patients. However, some adverse events still persist, such as suction that can trigger thrombus formation and cardiac rhythm disorders.

“Holding–Cuddling” and Sucrose for Pain Relief During Venepuncture in Newborn Infants: A Randomized, Controlled Trial (CÂSA)

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Objectives: Oral sucrose is commonly used to provide analgesia to neonates during painful procedures, such as venepuncture. The additional benefits of reducing pain during venepuncture when oral sucrose is combined with nonpharmacological strategies have

The effect of the blowing and suction from one or two positions over the suction surface of NACA0012 airfoil on aerodynamic performance in turbulent flow [PDF]

مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2017
One approach to improve the aerodynamic performance of airfoils and hydrofoils is inject a small amount of energy to the system (such as fluid injection or suction on the surface), to change the lift and drag.
