Analytical Modeling for Computing Lead Stress in a Novel Epicardial Micropacemaker.
Implantation and maintenance of a permanent cardiac pacing system in children remains challenging due to small patient size, congenital heart defects and somatic growth. We are developing a novel epicardial micropacemaker for children that can be implanted on the epicardium within the pericardial space via a minimally-invasive technique. The key design configurations include a novel open-coiled...
متن کاملPercutaneous Epicardial Pacing using a Novel Insulated Multi-electrode Lead.
INTRODUCTION Epicardial cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) permits unrestricted electrode positioning. However, this requires surgical placement of device leads and the risk of unwanted phrenic nerve stimulation. We hypothesized that shielded electrodes can capture myocardium without extracardiac stimulation. METHODS In 6 dog and 5 swine experiments, we used a percutaneous approach to ac...
متن کاملA Novel Method for VANET Improvement using Cloud Computing
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for VANET using cloud computing. We accomplish processing, routing and traffic control in a centralized and parallel way by adding one or more server to the network. Each car or node is considered a Client, in such a manner that routing, traffic control, getting information from client and data processing and storing are performed by one or more serve...
متن کاملAnalytical Modeling for Stress-Strain Curve of a Porous NiTi
Two models for predicting the stress-strain curve of porous NiTi under compressive loading are presented in this paper. Porous NiTi shape memory alloy is considered as a composite composed of solid NiTi as matrix and pores as inclusions. Eshelby’s equivalent inclusion method and Mori-Tanaka’s mean-field theory are employed in both models. Two types of pore connectivity are investigated. One is ...
