The calculation of the pressure field on and around solid bodies exposed to external flow is paramount importance a number engineering applications. However, conventional measurement techniques are inherently linked problems principally caused by their point-wise and/or intrusive nature. In present paper, we attempt calculate time-averaged two-dimensional integrating PIV (particle image velocim...

BACKGROUND Improved motion-sensitized driven-equilibrium (iMSDE) preparations have been successfully used in carotid artery wall imaging to achieve blood suppression, but it causes notable signal loss, mostly due to inherent T2 decay, eddy current effects and B1 + inhomogeneity. In this study, we investigate the signal to noise ratio (SNR) and blood suppression performance of iMSDE using compos...

This study was aimed to determine the possible differences between two different oscillometric devices measured blood pressure. Additionally, it carried out range levels of pressure in healthy cats admitted a small animal clinic. In breeds, 50 cats, median age 8.75 months, and ranged 3 36 months) were included this study. Blood values pulse measurements using wall mounted (WMD) mobile (MD) BP m...

The wake of a wall-mounted finite prism is numerically studied and characterized with an aspect ratio (height-to-width) $1$ varying depth ratios (length to width) between $0.016$ $4$ at Reynolds numbers 50–500. immersed in laminar boundary layer. minimum considered here accounts for the special case very thin (similar flat plate), which used establish mechanism evolution associated free-end eff...

In order to study the influence of position bulb on hydraulic performance a submersible tubular pump device, based large-scale pumping station, two schemes—involving front-mounted and rear-mounted bulb, respectively—were designed. The scheme uses GL-2008-03 model its conventional guide vane, while optimized design diffuser vane. method combining numerical simulation experimental testing was use...

To investigate the characteristics of flow over two finite-length cylinders in tandem arrangement, numerical simulations were performed using CFD technique for spacing ratios (S = D/d, where d is diameter and D separation gap between cylinders) 0.5 12 at a Reynolds number 200. The height-to-diameter ratio (h/d, h height was fixed 8. This study primarily focuses on effects S free ends vortical s...

Mr. Buchla presented and showed some of the fascinating musical instruments that he has created since 1965. We were privileged to have the actual instruments available to see and hear on loan courtesy of Don Buchla, David Kean and the Audities Foundation. The instruments that were shown include: Thunder (1990) The first of my MIDI controllers, soon to be reincarnated. Its about 18 " wide x 12" ...
