RISExperimental and Numerical Models of Three Dimensional Gravity Driven Flow of Shear Thinning Polymer Solutions Used in Vaginal Delivery of Microbicides
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: HIV/AIDS is a growing global pandemic. A microbicide is a formulation of a pharmaceutical agent suspended in a delivery vehicle, and can be used by women to protect themselves against HIV infection during intercourse. We ...
Structural and Biomechanical Adaptations of Right Ventricular Remodeling—In Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension—Reduces Left Ventricular Rotation During Contraction: A Computational Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a degenerative disease characterized by progressively increased right ventricular (RV) afterload that leads to ultimate functional decline. Recent observational studies have documented a ...
Structural and Biomechanical Adaptations of Right Ventricular Remodeling—In Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension—Reduces Left Ventricular Rotation During Contraction: A Computational Study
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)

A Zero-Dimensional Model and Protocol for Simulating Patient-Specific Pulmonary Hemodynamics From Limited Clinical Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In pulmonary hypertension (PH) diagnosis and management, many useful functional markers have been proposed that are unfeasible for clinical implementation. For example, assessing right ventricular (RV) contractile response ...
A Protocol for Measuring Pull off Stress of Wound Treatment Polymers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Skin wounds and burns compromise the body's natural barrier to bacteria and other pathogens. While many forms of wound dressings are available, polymeric films are advantageous for various reasons, ranging from the ease ...
Variability of Computational Fluid Dynamics Solutions for Pressure and Flow in a Giant Aneurysm: The ASME 2012 Summer Bioengineering Conference CFD Challenge
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Stimulated by a recent controversy regarding pressure drops predicted in a giant aneurysm with a proximal stenosis, the present study sought to assess variability in the prediction of pressures and flow by a wide variety ...
