RISEffect of Axial Stretch on Lumen Collapse of Arteries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stability of the arteries under in vivo pressure and axial tension loads is essential to normal arterial function, and lumen collapse due to buckling can hinder the blood flow. The objective of this study was to develop ...
Quantifying Engineering Faculty Performance Based on Expectations on Key Activities and Integration Using Flexible Weighting Factors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Faculty performance evaluation is an important element of assessment for departments and universities. A quantitative score is often needed for faculty annual evaluation, but its determination is often subjective, and it ...
Comparison of Biomechanical Properties and Microstructure of Trabeculae Carneae, Papillary Muscles, and Myocardium in the Human Heart
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Trabeculae carneae account for a significant portion of human ventricular mass, despite being considered embryologic remnants. Recent studies have found trabeculae hypertrophy and fibrosis in hypertrophied left ventricles ...

A Hemodynamic Comparison of Myocardial Bridging and Coronary Atherosclerotic Stenosis: A Computational Model With Experimental Evaluation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Myocardial bridging (MB) and coronary atherosclerotic stenosis can impair coronary blood flow and may cause myocardial ischemia or even heart attack. It remains unclear how MB and stenosis are similar or different regarding ...
The Effect of Trabeculae Carneae on Left Ventricular Diastolic Compliance: Improvement in Compliance With Trabecular Cutting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The role of trabeculae carneae in modulating left ventricular (LV) diastolic compliance remains unclear. The objective of this study was to determine the contribution of trabeculae carneae to the LV diastolic compliance. ...
The Effect of Pentagalloyl Glucose on the Wall Mechanics and Inflammatory Activity of Rat Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanent localized expansion of the abdominal aorta with mortality rate of up to 90% after rupture. AAA growth is a process of vascular degeneration accompanied by a reduction in ...
