Introduction:Gated myocardial perfusion SPECT has diagnostic and prognostic values in coronary artery disease (CAD). We tried to determine prognostic values of the left ventricular perfusion & functional indices as well as transient left ventricular dilation (TID) derived from gated myocardial perfusion SPECT. Methods: 1820patients who underwent gated myo...

The matching of the turbocharging system with a marine engine is an essential undertaking due to turbocharger effects on performance, emissions and response, whilst limited data availability during ship design phase renders it challenging. This study aims at developing novel methodology for single multiple turbochargers connected in parallel engines. employs compressor parametric modelling tool...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of successful kidney transplantation (kt) on myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function by both qualitative (visual) interpretation and semiquantitative parameters, using myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with gated-single photon emission computed tomography (gated-spect) in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease. ...

A multi-chamber silencer is designed by a computational approach to suppress the turbocharger whoosh noise downstream of a compressor in an engine intake system. Due to the significant levels and the broadband nature of the source spanning over 1.5 – 3.5 kHz, three Helmholtz resonators are implemented in series. Each resonator consists of a chamber and a number of slots, which can be modeled as...

Turbocharged diesel engines are now being used in every automobile by a lot of automobile manufacturing companies. A turbocharged diesel engine (TDE) equipped with variable geometry turbocharger and exchange gas recirculation is explained in detail. A linear turbocharged diesel engine model is presented and its control techniques are explained in detail. Controllers are designed using the linea...
