RISEvaluation of the Effectiveness of Transurethral Radio Frequency Hyperthermia in the Canine Prostate: Temperature Distribution Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The heating pattern of a transurethral radio frequency (RF) applicator and its induced steady-state temperature field in the prostate during transurethral hyperthermia treatment were investigated ...
Theoretical Study on Temperature Dependence of Cellular Uptake of QDs Nanoparticles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cellular uptake kinetics of nanoparticles is one of the key issues determining the design and application of the particles. Models describing nanoparticles intrusion into the cell mostly take ...
Universal Weight Function Consistent Method to Fit Polynomial Stress Distribution for Calculation of Stress Intensity Factor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Procedures for the analytical evaluation of flaws in nuclear pressure boundary components are provided in Section XI of the ASME B&PV Code. The flaw evaluation procedure requires calculation ...
The Fault in the Stress Analysis of Pseudo-Stress Function Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although Peng Yafei and his co-workers discovered some faults with the pseudo-stress function method suggested by Y. S. Lee in 1987, the authors did not provide convincing arguments. We investigate ...
Numerical Simulation of Pulsed Laser Bending
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of this work is to develop an efficient method for computing pulsed laser bending. During pulsed laser bending, thousands of laser pulses are irradiated onto the target. Simulations ...
A Study on Mechanical Damage of Tumor Microvasculature Induced by Alternate Cooling and Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tumor microvascular damage caused by the alternate cooling and heating treatment was found much more severe than that of cooling or heating alone from our previous experimental studies. The ...
Studies on the Three-Dimensional Temperature Transients in the Canine Prostate During Transurethral Microwave Thermal Therapy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermal therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia requires accurate prediction of the temperature distribution induced by the heating within the prostatic tissue. In this study, the Pennes bioheat ...
Markov Autocorrelation Pulse Model for Two Sites Daily Streamflow
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A Markov autocorrelation pulse (MACP) model for two sites daily streamflow generation is proposed in this study. By using two-component pulses with a one-order Markov autocorrelation deterministic part and a skewed Weibull ...
Estimating Basin Evapotranspiration Using Distributed Hydrologic Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Proposed in this study is an approach to estimate regional evapotranspiration from potential evaporation using a distributed hydrologic model. If water is freely available in the storage tank of interest, evapotranspiration ...
A Continuous Heat Regenerative Adsorption Refrigerator Using Spiral Plate Heat Exchanger as Adsorbers: Improvements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Spiral plate heat exchangers as adsorbers have been proposed, and a prototype heat regenerative adsorption refrigerator using activated carbon-methanol pair has been developed and tested. Various ...
