Abstract: After a median sternotomy, the sternum has to be refixated using implants such as wires, plates, or clamps. However, there is still a lack of specifically applicable test methods to investigate the mechanical safety and ...

Abstract: A methodology is presented to model noncompact thermoacoustic phenomena using reducedorder models (ROMs) based on the linearized Navier–Stokes equations (LNSEs). The method is applicable to geometries with a complex flow ...

Abstract: In altitude test facility (ATF) operation, the requirements to control humidity to generate defined icing conditions are gaining more and more importance. In this context, the ability to predict humidity and condensation ...
