The myocardial structure-function relation is the key to understand the functional design of the ventricular myocardium. While the function of myocardial fibers has been extensively studied, the recently observed laminar ...

In order to operate a reactor safely and efficiently, computer simulations must be used to predict certain nuclear characteristics of the reactor. To determine how materials change in a fission power environment, a ...

Nanofluids are engineered fluids that contain a suspension of nanoparticles in a pure substance. Nanoparticles can be any variety of metals, metal oxides, or ceramics. They have been shown to increase heat transfer properties ...

Prostate cancer is currently the most frequently diagnosed cancer among men in the United States. Due to the low a/P ratio (on the order of 1.5-2.0) compared to normal tissue, the therapeutic benefit of hypo-fractionation ...

Cable-in-Conduit Conductor is the typical geometry for the conductor employed in superconducting magnets for fusion applications. Once energized, the magnets produce an enormous electromagnetic force and very large transverse ...
