A Novel Non-Contact Method for Monitoring the Acoustic Emission From Mixed Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Contacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lubricated non-conformal contacts, such as between gear teeth, operate with high levels of mixed lubrication, where the amount of direct asperity contact depends on operating parameters that influence the film thickness. ...
Trans-Thrombus Blood Pressure Effects in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: How much and how the thrombus supports the wall of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is unclear. While some previous studies have indicated that thrombus lacks the mechanical integrity to ...
Stereoscopically Observed Deformations of a Compliant Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new experimental setup has been implemented to precisely measure the deformations of an entire model abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This setup addresses a gap between the computational and ...
Atmospheric Rivers are Responsible for Cyclicity in Sierra Nevada Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Design and Fabrication of a Three-Dimensional Multi-Electrode Array for Neuron Electrophysiology
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Neural recording and stimulation with high spatial and temporal resolution are highly desirable in the study of neurocommunication and diseases. Planar multiple microelectrode arrays (MEA) or quasi-three-dimensional (3D) ...
Effects of Stent Design Parameters on Normal Artery Wall Mechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A stent is a device designed to restore flow through constricted arteries. These tubular scaffold devices are delivered to the afflicted region and deployed using minimally invasive techniques. ...
Sea-Salt Size Distributions from Breaking Waves: Implications for Marine Aerosol Production and Optical Extinction Measurements during SEAS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors' participation in the Shoreline Environment Aerosol Study (SEAS) involved measurements focused on the coastal aerosol size distribution and related optical measurements, including aerosol light scattering, ...
Analysis and Design of a Lightweight High Specific Power Two Stroke Polygon Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Current trends in engine design have pushed the state of the art regarding high powertoweight ratio gasoline engines. Newly developed engine systems have a powertoweight ratio near 1 hp per pound. The engine configuration ...
