One prominent characteristic of product design for injection molded parts is that design and analysis (e.g. flow simulation) go hand-in-hand to ensure that the design is manufacturable by the injection molding process. Despite the wide use of CAD and CAE systems, it is known that communication between the two processes is poor. In this paper we propose a feature-based CAD-CAE integration model ...

RATIONALE Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is characterized by an abnormal dilatation of the coronary arteries. CAE is often associated with the presence of slow coronary flow and may lead to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), even without total occlusion. PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSIS We report a case of a 24-year-old male patient with CAE suffering from AMI. INTERVENTIONS Percutaneous coron...

An elderly woman suddenly had a right side cerebral air embolism (CAE) with seizures and unconsciousness during bronchoscopic biopsies, so was transferred to our hospital. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed no acute ischemic changes two hours after CAE in both hemispheres. Despite no active MRI findings, near-infrared spectroscope (NIRS), started soon after the MRI, showed lower regional o...

We present DO-Casl, a new member of the CASL family of specification languages. It is an extension of Casl-Ltl and it supports a methodology for conveniently writing loose specifications of observers on dynamic sorts. The need for such constructs arose during the development of a CASL library for distributed systems. Indeed, we have frequently used the same pattern of specification, in order to...

Children’s Absence Epilepsy (CAE) is a disorder that a!ects children as early as the age of six and manifests itself in frequent absence seizures. CAE generally presents with an array of co-morbidities, speci"cally learning disorders that impact reading ability. Although these co-morbidities have been identi"ed, little has been done to propose a model for their interaction thus far. This study ...

We study the secure distributed detection problems under energy constraint for IoT-oriented sensor networks. The conventional channel-aware encryption (CAE) is an efficient physical-layer secure distributed detection scheme in light of its energy efficiency, good scalability and robustness over diverse eavesdropping scenarios. However, in the CAE scheme, it remains an open problem of how to opt...

Development of frontal impact airbag sensor algorithms/calibrations requires crash signals, which can be obtained from vehicle crash testing and/or CAE simulations. This paper presents the development of finite element sensor models to generate CAE simulated crash pulses/signals at the sensing location during frontal impacts. These signals will be evaluated for potential used in the airbag sens...

In recent years, there has been increased discussion of the strength of vehicle roofs in rollover crashes. NHTSA recently revised the federal roof strength requirement and the IIHS has published an even more stringent roof strength goal. While working to increase roof strength, automakers are also working to reduce vehicle mass for improved fuel economy and other benefits. Developing technology...

OBJECTIVES Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) is a syndrome with well-defined electroclinical features but unknown pathological basis. An increased thalamic tonic GABA inhibition has recently been discovered on animal models (Cope et al., 2009), but its relevance for human CAE is unproven. METHODS We studied an 11-year-old boy, presenting the typical clinical features of CAE, but spike-wave dis...

Commentary Recent investigations of children with childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) have reliably demonstrated that CAE is not a syndrome free of cognitive or behavioral comorbidity. Particularly problematic is attentional impairment, not only because of attention's effects on cognitive and school performance but also due to its behavioral effects such as attention deficit hyperactivity syndrome...
