Towards understanding edge localised mode mitigation by resonant magnetic perturbations in MAST
Type-I Edge Localised Modes (ELMs) have been mitigated in MAST through the application of n = 3, 4, and 6 resonant magnetic perturbations. For each toroidal mode number of the non-axisymmetric applied fields, the frequency of the ELMs has been increased si ...
Amer Inst Physics2013Classical and non-classical phosphine-Ru(ii)-hydrides in aqueous solutions: many, various, and useful
Hydrogenation of the water-soluble [{RuCl2(mtppms)(2)}(2)] (mtppms = monosulfonated triphenylphosphine) was studied in aqueous solutions in the presence of excess mtppms both with H-2 and with aqueous HCOONa. Depending on the reductant, the pH and H-2 pres ...
Royal Soc Chemistry2013Piezoceramic materials for high-temperature and high-pressure applications in oilfield exploration and production
This work was originally motivated by the search for high-temperature piezoceramic materials with low acoustic impedance and high electromechanical coupling. The temperature and pressure behavior of two PZT-based materials with engineered porosity, Pz31 & ...
IEEE2013Simulation-based uncertainty quantification of human arterial network hemodynamics
Alfio Quarteroni, Gianluigi Rozza, Peng Chen
This work aims at identifying and quantifying uncertainties from various sources in human cardiovascular system based on stochastic simulation of a one dimensional arterial network. A general analysis of different uncertainties and probability characteriza ...
Wiley-Blackwell2013Reduced order models for the simulation of pathological heart valves
Numerical modeling of the human cardiovascular system (CVS) represents an active branch of research which allows the medical specialists to advance in understanding of underlined processes of blood circulation and the heart work at any scale, moreover, it ...
2013An Oral Formulation of Angiotensin-(1-7) Reverses Corpus Cavernosum Damages Induced by Hypercholesterolemia
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga, Danielle Gomes Passos Silva
Introduction The renin angiotensin system plays a crucial role in erectile function. It has been shown that elevated angiotensin-II levels contribute to the development of erectile dysfunction (ED). Oppositely, angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-[1-7]) mediates penile ...
Wiley-Blackwell2013Extremely robust and conformable capacitive pressure sensors based on flexible polyurethane foams and stretchable metallization
Stéphanie Lacour, Douglas Cameron Watson, Hugues Vandeparre
Microfabricated capacitive sensors prepared with elastomeric foam dielectric films and stretchable metallic electrodes display robustness to extreme conditions including stretching and tissue-like folding and autoclaving. The open cellular structure of the ...
American Institute of Physics2013Coupled semi-analytical solution for CO2 injection-induced surface uplift and caprock deflection
This study focuses on a specific problem related to the surface uplift induced by the injection of CO2 at depth. The adopted methodology includes the development of a mathematical model that incorporates the deformable behaviour of storage media and the fl ...
2013Air concentrations in plunge pools due to aerated plunging high-velocity jets and dynamic pressures in underlying fissures
High-velocity plunging water jets, such as those formed by spillways of high-head dams, cause scour on the rock foundations. The scour process is the result of complex physical phenomena concerning the three media involved, namely, water, rock and air. Air ...
TPI2013Role of the renin-angiotensin system on abdominal aortic aneurysms
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bram Trachet
BackgroundAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a complex degenerative disease, which leads to morbidity and mortality in a large portion of the elderly population. Current treatment options for AAA are quite limited as there is no proven indication for pharm ...
