Background: A traumatic diaphragm rupture presents a unique obstacle to a minimally invasive surgical approach; most repairs are performed during an emergency laparotomy. Diaphragm injuries are diagnosed in the acute phase of blunt-force trauma in only 10% of cases, and a high index of suspicion must be maintained to avoid strangulation of the abdominal organs that have herniated into the thora...
متن کاملComputational Study on Micro Shock Tube Flows with Gradual Diaphragm Rupture Process
Gas flows through micro shock tubes are widely used in many engineering applications such as micro engines, particle delivery devices etc. Recently, few studies have been carried out to explore the shock wave excursions through micro shock tubes at very low Reynolds number and at rarefied gas condition. But these studies assumed centered shock and expansion waves, which are generally produced b...
