Role of Kinetic Energy

Peak systolic pulmonary valvar pressure gradients are frequently seen in large intracardiac left-to-right shunt lesions. Conventionally, this has been attributed to "relative" pulmonic stenosis. Theoretical considerations suggest that this gradient is due to differences in expression of the total fluid energy. The side pressure, the downstream pressure, the end pressure, and the flow velocity i...

Kinetic Energy Harvesting

Kinetic Energy Harvesting

This paper reviews kinetic energy harvesting as a potential localised power supply for wireless applications. Harvesting devices are typically implemented as resonant devices of which the power output depends upon the size of the inertial mass, the frequency and amplitude of the driving vibrations, the maximum available mass displacement and the damping. Three transduction mechanisms are curren...

zero-kinetic energy photoelectron spectroscopy

where S(t) is the measurement, u f & is the final state, used as a ‘‘screen’’ onto which we project the dynamics, m(Q) is the coordinate dependent dipole coupling and uex(t)& is the evolving state that we wish to study. A range of techniques using different kinds of final states u f & have been implemented: time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy; ionization/mass spectroscopy; stimulated emissi...

Testing the kinetic energy functional : Kinetic energy density as a density functional

A new method for defining an energy density for the noninteracting kinetic energy of density functional theory is given. The resulting energy density is a density functional determined completely by the kinetic energy functional itself. Although this method is not constructive, it allows for a direct comparison between exact and approximate functionals pointwise in space. For simple systems, th...
