Abstract: The research reported in this article is concerned with the question of detecting and subsequently determining the endpoint in a long-stretch, ultraprecision surface polishing process. While polishing endpoint detection ...

Abstract: Flow in distal end-to-side anastomoses of iliofemoral artery bypass grafts was simulated using a steady flow, three-dimensional numerical model. With the proximal artery occluded, anastomotic angles ...

Abstract: A bolus-tracking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method has been employed to measure velocity profiles for oscillatory flow with and without a steady flow component as well as pulsatile flow ...

Abstract: Water transfer systems are increasingly seen as a response to regional water stresses. The expensive capital cost of such massive projects calls for satisfying the desired requirements with a minimum investment, ...

Abstract: To overcome the contradiction between the resolution and the measurement cost, various algorithms for reconstructing the sound field with sparse measurement have been developed. However, limited attention is paid to the ...

Abstract: A time-of-flight MRI velocity measurement technique is evaluated against corresponding LDV measurements in a constriction tube model over a range of physiologic flow conditions. Results from this ...

Abstract: Polishing of additively manufactured products is a multi-stage process, and a different combination of polishing pad and process parameters is employed at each stage. Pad change decisions and endpoint determination currently ...
