Calcium phosphate (Ca-P) cement is a well established material for bone repair. The bone biological properties of Ca-P cement can even be further improved by creating porosity in the material. The current study aimed on the evaluation of the osteoconductive behavior of porous Ca-P cement. Therefore, circular defects (6, 9, and 15 mm in diameter) were created in the cranium of 3 months old rabbi...

Stringent emission regulations around the world necessitate the use of high-efficiency catalytic converters in vehicle exhaust systems. Experimental studies are more expensive than computational studies. Also using computational techniques allows one to obtain all the required data for the Catalytic Converter, some of which could not be measured. In the present work, Geometric modeling ceramic ...

In this paper, the acoustical treatment of double-panel structures lined with poroelatic materials is predicted using analytical method in order to study the effective usage of the various boundary conditions of porous layer and to identify the effective parameters on the transmission loss of the multilayer systems. Therefore, inertia and viscous coupling along with thermal and elastic coupling...

This paper studies the acoustical properties of hard-backed porous layers with periodically embedded air filled Helmholtz resonators. It is demonstrated that some enhancements in the acoustic absorption coefficient can be achieved in the viscous and inertial regimes at wavelengths much larger than the layer thickness. This enhancement is attributed to the excitation of two specific modes: Helmh...

1. Introduction The most popular principle of diffusion measurements by NMR is the attenuation of spin echoes due to incomplete refocusing of coherences as a consequence of incoherent molecular displacements in the diffusion interval of the pulse sequence [0-Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden.]. Attenuation of echoes on these grounds arises in the presence of pulsed or steady gr...
