Computational methods for live heart imaging with speed-constrained microscopes

Imaging methods to capture the beating and developing heart inside embryonic animal models such as the zebrafish are a key component for the study of fundamental biological processes such as cardiac birth defects or tissue regeneration. However, live heart ...

A parametric neutron Bragg edge imaging study of additively manufactured samples treated by laser shock peening

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Nikola Kalentics, Markus Strobl

Laser powder bed fusion is an additive manufacturing technique extensively used for the production of metallic components. Despite this process has reached a status at which parts are produced with mechanical properties comparable to those from conventiona ...

Association of Heart Rate Variability With Silent Brain Infarcts in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Vincent Schlageter

Purpose: Silent brain infarcts (SBI) are frequently detected in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but it is unknown whether SBI are linked to autonomic dysfunction. We aimed to explore the association of autonomic dysfunction with SBI in AF patients. ...

Mathematical and numerical models for the cardiac electromechanical function

Alfio Quarteroni, Francesco Regazzoni

This paper deals with the mathematical model that describes the function of the human heart. More specifically, it addresses the equations that express the electromechanical process, that is the mechanical deformation (contraction and relaxation) of the he ...

Investigation of residual stresses in planar dissimilar magnetic pulse welds by neutron diffraction

Jean-Marie Drezet

Residual stresses are investigated for the first time in a dissimilar AA1050-DP450 steel magnetic pulse weld using neutron diffraction. Close to the joint interface, tensile residual stresses are observed in the Al sheet and compressive residual stresses a ...

Hydraulic fracture growth in quasi-brittle materials

Dong Liu

Hydraulic fracturing is a technique often used in the oil and gas industry to enhance the production of wells in low-permeability reservoirs. It consists of fluid injection at a sufficiently large injection rate to create and propagate tensile fractures in ...

Tissue Engineering with Mechanically Induced Solid‐Fluid Transitions

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Ece Özelçi, Jaemin Kim, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas, Matthias Rüegg, Jon Märki, Odysseas Konstantinos Chaliotis

Epithelia are contiguous sheets of cells that stabilize the shape of internal organs and support their structure by covering their surfaces. They acquire diverse morphological forms appropriate for their specific functions during embryonic development, suc ...

Tuning stiffness nonlinearty: theory and applications

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Perfect elasticity is not achievable in real-life situation, so spring stiffness is not perfectly constant. In this paper, we study the effect of modifying non-linear stiffness terms while keeping the nominal stiffness constant. We introduce three methods ...

Investigation of the effect of Laser Shock Peening in Additively Manufactured samples through Bragg Edge Neutron Imaging

Roland Logé, Markus Strobl, Nikola Kalentics

Additive manufacturing is a promising and rapidly rising technology in metal processing. However, besides a number of key advantages the constitution of a part through a complex thermo-mechanical process implies also some severe issues with the potential o ...
