RISEndothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase and Calcium Production in Arterial Geometries: An Integrated Fluid Mechanics/Cell Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is well known that atherosclerosis occurs at very specific locations throughout the human vasculature, such as arterial bifurcations and bends, all of which are subjected to low wall shear ...
Metabolic Model of Autoregulation in the Circle of Willis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Circle of Willis (CoW) is a ringlike structure of blood vessels found at the base of the brain. Its main function is to distribute oxygen-rich arterial blood to the cerebral mass. In a ...
Assessment of Trace Estrogenic Contaminants Removal by Coagulant Addition, Powdered Activated Carbon Adsorption and Powdered Activated Carbon/Microfiltration Processes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Increasing attention is being paid to health and environmental risk as a result of the presence of trace steroid estrogens in the effluent discharged from municipal sewage treatment plants. This paper focuses on assessment ...
One-Dimensional and Three-Dimensional Models of Cerebrovascular Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Circle of Willis is a ring-like structure of blood vessels found beneath the hypothalamus at the base of the brain. Its main function is to distribute oxygen-rich arterial blood to the ...
