In this article, we consider a weighted CVT-based reduced-order modelling for Burgers equation. Brief review of the CVT (centroidal Voronoi tessellation) approaches to reduced-order bases are provided. In CVT-reduced order modelling, we start with a snapshot set just as is done in a POD (Proper Orthogonal Decomposition)-based setting. So far, the CVT was researched with uniform density (ρ(y) = ...

BACKGROUND Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) may lead to serious neurological disorders; however, little is known about the risk factors for recurrent CVT. Our aim was to determine the association between elevated fibrinogen and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels with recurrent CVT. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included participants if they had a first epi...

Continuously variable transmission (CVT) is a type of automatic transmission that can change the gear ratio to any arbitrary setting within the limits. The most common type of CVT operates on a pulley system that allows an infinite variability between highest and lowest gears with no discrete steps. However, the current CVT system with hydraulic actuation method suffers from the power loss. It ...

Use of automatic transmission systems in motor vehicles in addition to improving the ride comfort is also expected to reduce fuel consumption. The principle of the system Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) is producing a variation of the ratio of the displacement system (i) as a function of velocity. The main problem is to change the variator CVT push-belt continuously variable from PULLE...

The continuously variable transmission (CVT) is a type of transmission that can adopt any arbitrary gear ratio. Whereas typical transmissions utilize toothed gears, the CVT employs a sphere in rolling contact with a set of rollers; loads applied to the CVT are supported across these rolling contacts, resulting in microslips of varying amounts at each contact area. In this paper, we describe the...

Cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT) is uncommon disease and known risk factors of CVT are hereditary thrombophilia, pregnancy, puerperium, and use of oral contraceptives. However, 25% of all cases are considered to be idiopathic. Thyrotoxicosis may be a predisposing factor of CVT due to a hypercoagulable state. Possible associations between thyrotoxicosis and CVT have been described in several case ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT) is a type of venous thromboembolism. Whether the risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) after CVT is similar to the risk after deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is unknown. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study using administrative data from all emergency department visits and hospitalizations in California, New York, and Florida from 2005...

The purpose of this study was to determine the magnitude of vasodilation by CVT-3146 in different vascular beds and to compare it with that by adenosine in conscious dogs. Intravenous bolus injections of CVT-3146 (0.1-2.5 microg/kg) or adenosine (10-250 microg/kg) caused a dose-dependent increase in the coronary blood flow (CBF) and a dose-dependent decrease in the late diastolic coronary resis...

Compassion and pride serve contrasting social functions: Compassion motivates care-taking behavior, whereas pride enables the signaling and negotiation of rank within social hierarchies. Across 3 studies, compassion was associated with increased perceived self-other similarity, particularly to weak or vulnerable others. In contrast, pride was associated with an enhanced sense of similarity to s...
