Machine learning prediction of tortuosity in digital rock
JGEET: Journal of Geoscience, Engineering, Environment and Technology, 2023 Physical rock property measurement is an important stage in energy exploration, both for hydrocarbons and geothermal sources. The value of physical rock properties can provide information about reservoir quality, and one of these properties is tortuosity.

Analysis of Air Cathode Perfomance for Lithium-Air Batteries [PDF]
, 2013 Lithium-air (Li-air) batteries have a theoretical specific energy comparable to gasolines. The air cathode plays a critical role in battery operation, where oxygen reacts with Li ions and electrons; and discharge products are stored in the pore structure.

Ultrasonic wave propagation through porous ceramics at different angles of propagation [PDF]
, 2014 The anisotropic pore structure and elasticity of cancellous bone cause wave speeds and attenuation in cancellous bone to vary with angle. Comparisons between predictions of a Biot-Allard model allowing for angle-dependent elasticity and angle-and ...

A review of the state of art in applying Biot theory to acoustic propagation through the bone [PDF]
, 2014 Understanding the propagation of acoustic waves through a liquid-perfused porous solid framework such as cancellous bone is an important pre-requisite to improve the diagnosis of osteoporosis by ultrasound.

Quantifying Inactive Lithium in Lithium Metal Batteries [PDF]
, 2019 Inactive lithium (Li) formation is the immediate cause of capacity loss and catastrophic failure of Li metal batteries. However, the chemical component and the atomic level structure of inactive Li have rarely been studied due to the lack of effective ...

Relationship between coronary tortuosity and plateletcrit coronary tortuosity and plateletcrit [PDF]
Cardiovascular Journal of Africa, 2017 Coronary tortuosity (CorT) is a common angiographic finding and may be associated with myocardial ischaemia, even without coronary artery disease. Platelets play a crucial role in inflammatory and thrombotic processes and the physiopathology of cardiovascular disease.

Oxidative Stress Mediates Vascular Tortuosity [PDF]
Antioxidants, 2021 Vascular tortuosity is associated with various disorders and is being increasingly detected through advances in imaging techniques. The underlying mechanisms for vascular tortuosity, however, remain unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that oxidative stress mediates the generation of tortuous vessels. We used the bilateral common carotid artery (CCA)
