Seismic Response of a Large-Span Steel Truss Arch Bridge under Nonuniform Near-Fault Ground Motions

open access: yesBuildings
The ground motion in the near-fault region of an earthquake is characterized by exceptional energy levels, powerful velocity impulses, substantial spatial variability, and notable permanent displacement.

Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and symptomatic cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2003
Background Recently a new automatic device that measures brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity using an oscillometric method has been developed. However, the practical significance of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity measurement remains uncertain.

Current Status and Challenges in Data Collection for Aerospace Coatings Deposited by Plasma Spraying

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An innovative approach has been integrated into the GRENAT project to optimize plasma spraying and coating performance. Raw materials are accelerated and melted in the plasma generated by torches, creating coatings. Monitoring sensors collect process data which are combined with ex situ characterization data.

Elevated levels of urine isocitrate, hydroxymethylglutarate, and formiminoglutamate are associated with arterial stiffness in Korean adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Recent evidence suggests that cellular perturbations play an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, we analyzed the association between the levels of urinary metabolites and arterial stiffness. Our cross-sectional study

Automating the determination of wave speed using the pu-loop method

open access: yes, 2005
The PU-loop (pressure-velocity loop) is a method for determining wave speed and relies on the linear relationship between the pressure and velocity in the absence of reflected waves.

In Situ Micromechanical Study of Bimodal γ′–γ″ Precipitate Assemblies in Ni–Cr–Al–Nb Superalloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A Ni–Cr–Al–Nb superalloy with a bimodal γ′–γ″ precipitate distribution is developed. Composite precipitate assemblies form through heterogeneous nucleation, effectively impeding dislocation motion. Micropillar compression reveals high strength at room and elevated temperatures, governed by precipitate shearing, with coupled faulting mechanisms ...

Difficulties in the measurement of pulse-wave velocity [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal, 1958
The methods employed in the measuring of pulse-wave velocity are subject to gross error because of alinearity and frequency distortion resulting from low-resonance frequencies of instrumentation and arterial segment and extraneous tissue interference.

The velocity of pulse wave in man [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character, 1922
Abstract In an investigation now being carried out by us at Manchester observations are being made, under various conditions, upon the velocity of the pulse wave in man. As a preliminary to this investigation it was thought advisable to study the theory of the transmission of the pulse wave, and the following pages contain the results
