Assessing the Thermal Damage Induced by Radiofrequency Ablation for Localized Liver Cancer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Clinical trials are already established for high-temperature treatment of localized cancer, i.e., rise of tissue temperature to more than 55 °C as an effective noninvasive method for the treatment of localized cancer. ...
Radio Frequency Ablation of Kidney Tumor Using Gold Nanoparticles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Radio frequency ablation (RFA) is emerging as a promising technique for kidney tumor treatment because of its effectiveness, minimal invasiveness, and lower chances of complications. This study presents a comparative ...
Visualization of Quench Front Propagation on Heated Rod Through Single Jet Impingement
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Quench front characteristics and flow physics have been observed for single jet impingement using de-ionized (DI) water and various oxide-based nanofluids. Quench front velocity, shape, intensities of sputtering, and ...
Asymmetric Vibrations of Functionally Graded Annular Nanoplates under Thermal Environment Using Nonlocal Elasticity Theory with Modified Nonlocal Boundary Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Analysis and numerical results are presented for the free asymmetric vibrations of functionally graded (FG) annular nanoplates subjected to nonlinearly varying temperature. The mechanical properties of the plate material ...
Boiling Heat Transfer Performance of Pure Water on Binary Oxide-Based Nanoparticles Coatings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pool boiling heat transfer performance has been evaluated on a binary oxide based nanoparticles coated surface. Electrophoretic deposition techniques were used for TiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles coatings on polished copper ...
Dynamic Instability of Functionally Graded Shells Using Higher-Order Theory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the dynamic instability behavior of functionally graded (FG) shells subjected to in-plane periodic load and temperature field using a higher-order shear deformation theory in conjunction with the ...
Influence of Blade Tip Surface Roughness on the Performance of a Single-Stage Axial Flow Compressor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerical investigations are carried out in a single-stage subsonic axial flow compressor to unravel the influence of blade tip surface roughness on the tip leakage flow characteristics and hence the compressor performance. ...
Potential of Infrared Imaging for Breast Cancer Detection: A Critical Evaluation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Screening for breast cancer to detect the disease in an early curable stage remains our most important tool to reduce breast cancer mortality, and routine screening mammography is recommended. Although the technique has ...
Improved Wake Velocity Distribution Behind a Rising Bubble for Isothermal and Thermally Stratified Liquid Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper aims at (a) improving the vertical velocity distribution in the wake of a rising isolated bubble for isothermal water layers and (b) evaluating the proposed distribution for thermally stratified therminol layers ...
Efficacy Assessment of Silty–Sandy Soil as Bed Material in Constructed Wetland to Treat Naphthalene-Laden Wastewater: Physical and Numerical Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Naphthalene is a common polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon that is widely present in aquatic environments and has colossal negative health effects on living beings. Thus, the removal of naphthalene from wastewater using ...
