One area of investigation has been the behavior of elongated particles, such as cylindrical rods, in a quiescent (calm) fluid. Studies have shown that the motion of these particles can be ...

Fluid dynamics is the study of the motion of liquids, gases and plasmas. Flow is dependent on the intrinsic properties of the matter itself, such as compressibility, viscosity and density. Example ...

If the initial phase appears unnoticed, the progressive release of wear debris is associated with synovitis corresponding to an inflammatory environment created in the neo-synovium, which leads to an ...

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While it is traditionally attributed to lipid accumulation in the vascular endothelium, ...

This paper reviews the methods, benefits and challenges associated with the adoption and translation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling within cardiovascular medicine. CFD, a specialist ...

High levels of proteases are identified in the bronchoalveolar fluid from patients with severe pneumonia75 and are associated with increased risk of ARDS. Proteases are also able to impair the ...

Pituitary downregulation will be confirmed by both a transvaginal ultrasound scan (quiescent ovaries with follicles <10 mm diameter ... finger printing’) will vary depending on its ability to develop ...

Approximately three months post-grafting the patient was readmitted to the intensive care unit with respiratory distress thought to result from infection and fluid overload, and he died on post-BMT ...

Objective Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is characterised by stromal desmoplasia and vascular dysfunction, which critically impair drug delivery. This study examines the role of an abundant ...
