Improvement in the performance of magnetic confinement devices for nuclear fusion relies on the optimization of the geometry of the plasma: either the two-dimensional (2D) cross-section shape in tokamaks with toroidal symmetry or the 3D magnetic configurat ...
Degeneration of the intervertebral disc (IVD) is thought to be one main factor in the development of back pain. It is not a symptom by itself but can lead to painful pathological conditions. Current treatments aim at relieving pain by conservative care, me ...
The intervertebral disc (IVD), which provides flexibility to the spine and facilitates damping and motion, is composed of two distinct structures: the annulus fibrosus (AF) and the nucleus pulposus (NP). The AF, which is fibrous and elastic, confines the N ...
Objective: Several cell carriers need to be selected and characterized for their compatibility with fetal cartilaginous cell survival and activity. In order to assess the in vivo regeneration capacity of fetal cartilaginous cells, these cell carriers will ...
Plasma breakdown using second-harmonic electron cyclotron (EC) waves has been studied experimentally in three helical devices, Heliotron J, TJ-II and CHS. Recent technological progress on electron cyclotron heating (ECH) systems enables us to determine wha ...
In the United States approximately 50 million people suffer from low back pain. In the 20-50 years age group, this is the most important and expensive health care problem. The causes of low back pain are various. A herniated disk or spinal stenosis may tra ...
[...] Low back pain affects nearly 80% the population at least once in their lifetime. Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is thought to play a role in the development and onset of low back pain. The center part of the disc, the nucleus pulposus (NP), w ...
A low aspect ratio stellarator CHS-qa with a quasi-axisymmetric configuration has been designed at NIFS, whose main objective is the experimental study of confinement improvement. The high beta equilibrium was obtained with the HINT code which does not req ...
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is one of the prevailing medical concern and actual health cost. Industries and academic institutions research for therapeutic solutions going from drugs to complete and partial arthroplasty devices as well as enginee ...
The energy confinement time of TCV ohmic L mode discharges depends strongly on plasma shape. For fixed average current and electron densities, confinement times increase with plasma elongation and decrease with (positive) plasma triangularity. This depende ...
