Virtual ankle-brachial index - Can we predict the immediate outcome of femorodistal bypass surgery? [PDF]
Background/Aim. The best treatment for the occlusion of the largest artery in the thigh is a femorodistal (FD) bypass. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and multidetector computed tomographic (MDCT) angiography are the gold standards for diagnosing peripheral ...

Positioning Combination Method of USBL Using Four-Element Stereo Array
In the present article, an ultra-short baseline (USBL) combined location method based on three four-element stereo arrays is proposed. In order to solve the problem of the poor positioning effect of acoustic positioning under a high incident angle of ...

Optimal Maximum Norm Estimates for Virtual Element Methods
The maximum norm error estimations for virtual element methods are studied. To establish the error estimations, we prove higher local regularity based on delicate analysis of Green's functions and high-order local error estimations for the partition of the virtual element solutions.

Constructions of some minimal finite element systems [PDF]
Within the framework of finite element systems, we show how spaces of differential forms may be constructed, in such a way that they are equipped with commuting interpolators and contain prescribed functions, and are minimal under these constraints.

On the Virtual Element Method for Topology Optimization on polygonal meshes: a numerical study [PDF]
It is well known that the solution of topology optimization problems may be affected both by the geometric properties of the computational mesh, which can steer the minimization process towards local (and non-physical) minima, and by the accuracy of the ...

A first-order stabilization-free Virtual Element Method
In this paper, we introduce a new Virtual Element Method (VEM) not requiring any stabilization term based on the usual enhanced first-order VEM space. The new method relies on a modified formulation of the discrete diffusion operator that ensures stability preserving all the properties of the differential operator.
