We present a novel numerical method to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for two-phase flows with phase change. Separate phases are tracked using geometric Volume-Of-Fluid (VOF) piecewise linear interface construction (PLIC). Thermal energy advection is treated in conservative form and calculation of VOF fluxes at computational cell boundaries used consistently calculate heat cap...

This work is devoted to the development of a new hybrid VOF-IBM method for simulation freezing liquid films and drops. The VOF IBM methods are coupled with temperature equation be able solve icing front, dilatation induced by density difference between ice as well drop deformation balance surface tension gravity. numerical simulations validated comparison theoretical solutions experimental obse...

A new VOF Type III-G.S stain was applied to histological sections of different organs and tissues of healthy and pathological larvae, juvenile and adult fish species (Solea senegalensis; Sparus aurata; Diplodus sargo; Pagrus auriga; Argyrosomus regius and Halobatrachus didactylus). In comparison to the original Gutiérrez VOF stain, more acid dyes of contrasting colours and polychromatic/metachr...

PURPOSE In order to better understand whether white matter structural deficits are present in strabismic amblyopia, we performed a survey of the tissue properties of 28 major white matter tracts using diffusion and quantitative magnetic resonance imaging approaches. METHODS We used diffusion-based tensor modeling and a new quantitative T1 protocol to measure fractional anisotropy (FA), mean d...

PURPOSE To evaluate whether a non-linear blood ΔR2*-versus-concentration relationship improves quantitative cerebral blood flow (CBF) estimates obtained by dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI in a comparison with Xe-133 SPECT CBF in healthy volunteers. MATERIAL AND METHODS Linear as well as non-linear relationships between ΔR2* and contrast agent concentration in blood were applied to t...
