Approximately 500 multi-PMTs (mPMTs) will be used as the photosensors for Intermediate Water Cherenkov Detector (IWCD), a new near detector approved Hyper-Kamiokande experiment that built by 2025. The IWCD mPMT design has nineteen 3” PMTs enclosed in water-tight pressure vessel, along with associated electronics. provide excellent spatial imaging of neutrino-induced light ring. This work focus ...

medical environments such as hospital waiting rooms can affect a client’s anxiety level as wellas psychological and physiological responses to his or her situation. the aim of this research was to evaluatethe use of environmental design, specifically the design which incorporates elements of nature, in clinics andhospitals to decrease anxiety, blood pressure and pulse rates of waiting clients. ...

Myocardial ischemia is transmurally heterogeneous where the subendocardium is at higher risk. Stenosis induces reduced perfusion pressure, blood flow redistribution away from the subendocardium, and consequent subendocardial vulnerability. We propose that the flow redistribution stems from the higher compliance of the subendocardial vasculature. This new paradigm was tested using network flow s...

The propeller-type flap design is increasingly used in reconstructive surgery for various regions of the body. To date, determinants of perforator patency when subjected to twisting have not been elucidated. We propose a simulation model to study parameters affecting perforator patency under such conditions. Nonlinear finite element procedure was used to simulate a perforator consisting of an a...

A design of a novel wireless implantable blood pressure sensing microsystem for advanced biological research is presented. The system employs a miniature instrumented elastic cuff, wrapped around a blood vessel, for small laboratory animal real-time blood pressure monitoring. The elastic cuff is made of biocompatible soft silicone material by a molding process and is filled by insulating silico...

Pressure vessels are used for various industrial applications. To ensure safe operation of pressure vessels, it is important to know its burst pressure. Burst pressure is the pressure at which vessel burst/crack and internal fluid leaks. For light weight application pressure vessel are made of composite material. Payload performance /speed /operating range depends up on weight. Use of composite...

The effect of topical carteolol 1%, a beta-adrenergic blocker with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, on the retinal circulation was investigated in 15 normal subjects using laser Doppler velocimetry and monochromatic fundus photography. In a double-masked randomized design, one eye received one drop of carteolol 1% and the fellow eye one drop of placebo. Vessel diameter, maximum erythrocyte v...

In this article fluid-structure interaction of vibrating composite piezoelectric plates is investigated. Since the plate is assumed to be moderately thick, rotary inertia effects and transverse shear deformation effects are deliberated by applying exponential shear deformation theory. Fluid velocity potential is acquired using the Laplace equation, and fluid boundary conditions and wet dynamic ...
