Endothelial cell dilatory pathways link flow and wall shear stress in an intact arteriolar network.
Our purpose was to determine whether the endothelial cell-dependent dilatory pathways contribute to the regulation of flow distribution in an intact arteriolar network. Cell flow, wall shear stress (T omega), diameter, and bifurcation angle were determined for four sequential branches of a transverse arteriole in the superfused cremaster muscle of pentobaribtal sodium (Nembutal, 70 mg/kg)-anest...
متن کاملTurbulence wall-shear stress sensor for the atmospheric surface layer
A new sensor is described for measuring the fluctuating component of the wall-shear stress in the atmospheric surface layer over relatively smooth uniform terrain. The sensor was tested at the Surface Layer Turbulence and Environmental Science Test (SLTEST) site on the western salt flats of Utah, giving the first ever direct measurements of this quantity in an atmospheric-scale flow. The device...
متن کاملWall Shear stress measurements in the atmosperhic surface layer
w data, valuable contributions have been made to the physical understanding of turbulence over an unprecedented range of Reynolds numbers. The shear stress measurements were made at the unique SLTEST (Surface Layer Turbulence and Environmental Science Test facility) site on the great salt lakes of Utah, pictured in figure 1. Winds over the site are known to remain strong and consistent for exte...
متن کاملFlow instability and wall shear stress variation in intracranial aneurysms.
We investigate the flow dynamics and oscillatory behaviour of wall shear stress (WSS) vectors in intracranial aneurysms using high resolution numerical simulations. We analyse three representative patient-specific internal carotid arteries laden with aneurysms of different characteristics: (i) a wide-necked saccular aneurysm, (ii) a narrower-necked saccular aneurysm, and (iii) a case with two a...
متن کاملRegulation of flow and wall shear stress in arteriolar networks of the hamster cheek pouch.
Our purpose was to define arteriolar network hemodynamics during moderate increases in interstitial adenosine or nitric oxide in the hamster (n = 34, pentobarbital sodium 70 mg/kg) cheek pouch tissue. The network consists of a feed arteriole (approximately 12-microm diameter, approximately 800-microm length) with three to six branches. Observations of diameter, red blood cell flux, and velocity...
