Relaxation indentation experiments using atomic force microscopy (AFM) are used to obtain viscoelastic material properties of soft samples. The quasilinear viscoelastic (QLV) model formulated by Fung (1972, "Stress Strain History Relations of Soft Tissues in Simple Elongation," in Biomechanics, Its Foundation and Objectives, Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, pp. 181-207) for uniaxial compres...

A generalized Rayleigh-Plesset-type bubble dynamics model with a damage mechanism is developed for cavitation and damage of soft materials by focused ultrasound bursts. This study is linked to recent experimental observations in tissue-mimicking polyacrylamide and agar gel phantoms subjected to bursts of a kind being considered specifically for lithotripsy. These show bubble activation at multi...

background: nutritional education is a necessity in diabetic patients to better control of the disease. the aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of educational programs to promote nutritional knowledge in type ii diabetes patients using the health belief model (hbm). methods: this was a quasi-experimental study which was performed among type ii diabetic patients referred to rura...

Bertrand Rollin, CCS-2; Nicholas A. Denissen, Jon M. Reisner, Malcolm J. Andrews, XCP-4; Jimmy Fung, XCP-1 Computing requirements for simulating complex multi-physics flows are such that Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) models will remain the community’s chosen workhorse for years to come. Within applications of interest to LANL, such as compressible mixing, the Besnard Harlow Rauenzahn (...

We consider algorithms to schedule packets with values and deadlines in a size-bounded buffer. At any time, the buffer can store at most B packets. Packets arrive over time. Each packet has a non-negative value and an integer deadline. In each time step, at most one packet can be sent. Packets can be dropped at any time before they are sent. The objective is to maximize the total value gained b...
