System Level Disturbance Reachable Sets and their Application to Tube-based MPC [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Tube-based model predictive control (MPC) methods leverage tubes to bound deviations from a nominal trajectory due to uncertainties in order to ensure constraint satisfaction. This paper presents a novel tube-based MPC formulation based on system level disturbance reachable sets (SL-DRS), which leverage the affine system level parameterization (SLP ...

Experimental study on transient behavior of embedded spiral-coil heat exchanger [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2015
Spiral coil offers a substantial amount of heat transfer area at a considerably low cost as it does not only have a lower wall resistance but it also achieves a better heat transfer rate in comparison to conventional U-tube arrangement.

Incarcerated Femoral Hernia Containing Ipsilateral Fallopian Tube [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2010
Femoral hernias are more common in women and lead to a substantial higher rate for an emergency operation, due to strangulation. Incarcerated femoral hernia with fallopian tube as a content is an extremely rare condition. A 20-year-old woman presented to the emergency department complaining of a 6-day right groin swelling, which became painful and ...

An integrated approach to modelling the fluid-structure interaction of a collapsible tube [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The well known collapsible tube experiment was conducted to obtain flow, pressure and materials property data for steady state conditions. These were then used as the boundary conditions for a fully coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model using a

Precise activity measurements of medical radionuclides using an ionization chamber: a case study with Terbium-161

open access: yesEJNMMI Physics, 2022
Background 161Tb draws an increasing interest in nuclear medicine for therapeutic applications. More than 99% of the emitted gamma and X-rays of 161Tb have an energy below 100 keV.

Uniformity in Labels of Tubes Containing Hypodermic Tablets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association, 1915
To the Editor: —Some makers of hypodermic tablets label the tubes to read toward the cork, and some toward the bottom of the tubes. This causes annoyance and delay in selecting tablets; often one is in a big hurry to give a hypodermic. Why not ask the manufacturers to label all one way, preferably toward the cork, for that puts the tube into the left ...

Computational study of the granular flow through an elbow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
If a granular material inside a U-shaped tube is vertically vibrated, some interesting phenomena can be observed. Depending on the amplitude and frequency of vibration, the wall-grain interaction and the presence of an interstitial fluid, the granular ...
