Novel 3-dimensional effective regurgitation orifice area quantification serves as a reliable tool to identify severe mitral valve regurgitation

open access: yesScientific Reports
A precise quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) severity is essential for treatment and outcome of patients with MR. 3D echocardiography facilitates estimation of MR but selection of patients with necessity of invasive treatment remains challenging.

Thermoplastic Labyrinth Seals Under Rub Impact: Deformation Leakage Mechanisms and High Efficiency Optimization

open access: yesLubricants
Labyrinth seals, extensively used in aerospace and turbomachinery as non-contact sealing devices, undergo accelerated wear and enhanced leakage due to repeated rub-impact between rotating shafts and sealing rings.

Study of Flow and Thrust in Nozzle-Flapper Valves

open access: yes, 1975
The Navier-Stokes equations and the equation of continuity describing the flow in the flat-faced nozzle-flapper valve are numerically solved by the iterative relaxation method and the effect of the flow contraction (vena contracta) occurring in the ...

In vivo fluid dynamics of the Ventura interatrial shunt device in patients with heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure
Aims Interatrial shunts are under evaluation as a treatment for heart failure (HF); however, their in vivo flow performance has not been quantitatively studied. We aimed to investigate the fluid dynamics properties of the 0.51 cm orifice diameter Ventura
