Based on the application of Laplace's law to compression garments, an equation for predicting garment pressure, incorporating the body circumference, the cross-sectional area of fabric, applied strain (as a function of reduction factor), and its corresponding Young's modulus, is developed. Design procedures are presented to predict garment pressure using the aforementioned parameters for clinic...

designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. a specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. there are generally three regi...

We compare the structural and mechanical properties of static packings composed of frictionless convex (ellipses) and concave (rigid dimers) particles in two dimensions. We employ numerical simulations to generate static packings and measure the shear stress in response to applied simple shear strain as a function of the aspect ratio and amount of compression. We find that the behavior near jam...

We have studied the ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ ice VII--ice X phase transition at room temperature by performing three quasicontinuous synchrotron time-resolved x-ray-diffraction experiments in a dynamic diamond anvil cell, reaching pressures of 180 GPa. The dense pressure coverage our volume data allows us to directly derive bulk modulus for over entire range. Our document major changes comp...
