چکیده
In this work, three dimensional modelling and computer simulation of heat transfer on generally-shaped nonhomogeneous bodies is proposed and described. The complexity of the calculation is estimated and the potential use of high performance parallel computers is discussed. The method is focused on applications in medicine. As an example, a numerical algorithm for the parallel computer simulation of heart cooling procedures during surgery is presented. On the basis of simulated results, two different methods of cooling are compared.

Appointment process of open-heart surgery in Shahid Rajaei Heart Hospital using a discrete event simulation approach
Background: The waiting list is a list of selected patients in the surgical queue. If demand exceeds capacity, the waiting list grows rapidly, which may lead to unacceptable waiting for patients, especially those in need of acute medical care. Patients waiting for heart surgery are placed on the waiting list for surgery, and sometimes the waiting time is longer than patients expect. Reducing th...
متن کاملSpatial modelling of zonality elements based on compositional nature of geochemical data using geostatistical approach: a case study of Baghqloom area, Iran
Due to the existence of a constant sum of constraints, the geochemical data is presented as the compositional data that has a closed number system. A closed number system is a dataset that includes several variables. The summation value of variables is constant, being equal to one. By calculating the correlation coefficient of a closed number system and comparing it with an open number system, ...

متن کاملMacroscopic Visualization of the Heart Electrical Activity Via an Algebraic Computer Model
In this study, a mathematical model is developed based on algebraic equations which is capable of generating artificially normal events of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals such as P-wave, QRS complex, and T-wave. This model can also be implemented for the simulation of abnormal phenomena of electrocardiographic signals such as ST-segment episodes (i.e. depression, elevation, and sloped ascending...
متن کاملA High Performance Feedback Active Noise Control System
In many active noise control (ANC) applications, an online secondary path modelling method that uses a white noise as a training signal is required. This paper proposes a new feedback ANC system. Here we modified both the FxLMS and the VSS-LMS algorithms to raised noise attenuation and modelling accuracy for the overall system. The proposed algorithm stops injection of the white noise at the op...
