Although the principle of using x-rays for diagnostic imaging has been known for a long time, there is still a lot of research and improvements going on in the field. One recent addition to the neuro-vascular imaging system—used for visualizing blood vessels in the brain and guidance of interventions—is 3D rotational angiography (3D-RA). Using 3D-RA, it is possible to view the vessel tree in 3D...

This paper presents the use of Inverse Free Krylov Subspace Algorithm (IFKSA) with Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Technique (ESPRIT) for the Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) estimation under element failure in a Uniform Linear Antenna Array (ULA). Failure of a few elements results in sparse signal space. IFKSA algorithm is an iterative algorithm to find the dominant eigenva...

in this study, friction stir spot welding (fssw) is applied to join the tial6v4 titanium alloy with 1.5 mm thickness and then the effect of rotational speed and tool dwell time on microstructure and mechanical properties is investigated. in this regard, the speed of the tool rotation was considered as 800, 1000, and 1200 rpm, as well as the tool dwell time was set at 7 and 12s. microstructural ...

More than 280 trees were uprooted in winching tests monitored by high resolution inclinometers at the base of and a forcemeter mounted line. The dataset comprises growing on different urban forest sites Europe North America mainly consists fifteen widespread tree species. For first time, large number measured non-destructively prior to uprooting failure, as commonly practiced consulting arboris...

Rotablation (rotational atherectomy) is an acknowledged method of percutaneous treatment of highly calcified coronary artery lesions that cannot be treated with traditional angioplasty. The complexity of the technique and usage of very specific equipment can contribute to the development of uncommon complications. We present a case of percutaneous retrieval of a damaged rotational atherectomy b...

The design of retaining walls depends on the magnitude of active pressure exerted from the backfill. Therefore, estimating the scale of this pressure is a fundamental factor in the design. In this study, to assess the active earth pressure, a rigid retaining wall was built capable of translating and/or rotating with adjustable speed. Further, several physical tests were conducte...

We show by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations that the Navier-Stokes equation does not correctly describe water flow in a nanoscale geometry. It is argued that this failure reflects the fact that the coupling between the intrinsic rotational and translational degrees of freedom becomes important for nanoflows. The coupling is correctly accounted for by the extended Navier-Stokes equa...

In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNN) have played an important role in the field of deep learning. Variants of CNN’s have proven to be very successful in classification tasks across different domains. However, there are two big drawbacks to CNN’s: their failure to take into account of important spatial hierarchies between features, and their lack of rotational invariance [1]. As ...
