RISA Parameter Optimization Approach for the Optimal Control of Large-Scale Musculoskeletal Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a computational method for solving optimal control problems involving large-scale, nonlinear, dynamical systems. Central to the approach is the idea that any optimal control ...
Measurement of Steady-Flow Instability and Turbulence Levels in Dacron Vascular Grafts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid dynamic properties of Dacron vascular grafts were studied under controlled steady-flow conditions over a Reynolds number range of 800 to 4500. Knitted and woven grafts having nominal ...

Topographical Mapping of Sites of Enhanced HRP Permeability in the Normal Rabbit Aorta
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The spatial distribution of sites of enhanced permeability to the macromolecule horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in the normal rabbit aorta after one min circulation was studied using image analysis. ...
A Three-Dimensional Variable Geometry Countercurrent Model for Whole Limb Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new formulation of the combined macro and microvascular model for heat transfer in a human arm developed in Song et al. [1] is proposed using a recently developed approximate theory for ...
Blood Velocity Patterns in Poststenotic Regions and Velocity Waveforms for Myocardial Inflow Associated With Coronary Artery Stenosis in Dogs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Velocity profiles across a vessel were investigated in poststenotic regions of the canine left coronary artery by our 80-channel 20 MHz ultrasound velocimeter. The velocity waveform in a small ...
Strain Fields on Cell Stressing Devices Employing Clamped Circular Elastic Diaphragms as Substrates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solutions are presented for the surface strain fields on inflated elastomeric circular diaphragms used for in vitro cell stressing experiments. It is shown, by using the method developed by Way ...
Numerical Simulation of Steady Flow in a Two-Dimensional Total Artificial Heart Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
