A Demonstration of Errors in Relative Pressure Calculations from MR Velocity Data

چکیده

Introduction Relative pressure maps may be calculated from MRI velocity images on a voxel-by-voxel basis using the Navier-Stokes equation [1] to calculate the pressure gradient and numerical integration to generate a relative pressure map [3]. We show the accuracy of the derived pressure maps to be very sensitive to imaging noise and partial volume effects, both of which undermine the fluid dynamical assumptions associated with the Navier-Stokes formulation. We present here the results of numerical simulations of these error sources in a simple hydrodynamic system and suggest a method for reducing the impact of partial volume effects on the derived pressure map.

Rate of Pressure Rise in SI Engine Cylinder and its Relation to Knock (RESEARCH NOTE)

Tremendous efforts have been devoted to study the complex phenomenon "knock in spark ignition engines. There is an increasing interest in providing some tools to study knock in simulated data. In the previous studies, engine cylinder pressure oscillation has been used to investigate knock. Unless those methods involved highly complex non-detailed chemical relations, the previous studies were de...

Modifications to Walker-Anderson Model for Analysis of High-velocity Penetration of an Eroding Long-rod Projectile into Semi-infinite Concrete Targets

This paper presents a modified form of the Walker-Anderson (W-A) model for analyzing high velocity penetration of an eroding projectile into a concrete target in which the W-A model is improved by incorporating calculations for the plastic flow field of concrete in terms of its compressibility and strain rate sensitivity under severe pressure. With the changes to and calculations of plastic fie...

An algorithm to estimate unsteady and quasi-steady pressure fields from velocity field measurements.

We describe and characterize a method for estimating the pressure field corresponding to velocity field measurements such as those obtained by using particle image velocimetry. The pressure gradient is estimated from a time series of velocity fields for unsteady calculations or from a single velocity field for quasi-steady calculations. The corresponding pressure field is determined based on me...
