BACKGROUND Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome is a rare syndrome; unfortunately, very few studies of the connection between hypersplenism, nephrotic syndrome, and Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome have been published. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 40-year-old white man with a typical clinical presentation of Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome, including "port-wine stains," varicose vei...

This case report shows a genealogical study where a woman has limb hypertrophy and her son has an association of Sturge-Weber syndrome with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome. The Sturge-Weber and Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndromes appear to be different manifestations of the same affliction. Familial aggregation exists and transmission may be almost imperceptible between generations. Identificati...

We investigate the regularization of Moore’s singularities by surface tension in the evolution of vortex sheets and its dependence on the Weber number (which is inversely proportional to surface tension coefficient). The curvature of the vortex sheet, instead of blowing up at finite time t0, grows exponentially fast up to a O(We) limiting value close to t0. We describe the analytic structure of...

Modeling the primary atomization of turbulent liquid jets and sheets still remains an unsolved problem. Considering numerical grid resolutions typical for Large Eddy Simulations, the large scale liquid structures during primary breakup are well resolved, whereas all small scale structures are unresolved and thus require modeling. To help in the derivation of such subgrid models, DNS of the turb...

The normalization of energy divergent Weber waves and finite energy Weber-Gauss beams is reported. The well-known Bessel and Mathieu waves are used to derive the integral relations between circular, elliptic, and parabolic waves and to present the Bessel and Mathieu wave decomposition of the Weber waves. The efficiency to approximate a Weber-Gauss beam as a finite superposition of Bessel-Gauss ...

An experimental study of thermal atomization intensity during droplet impingement on superheated hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces varying microstructure was performed. Thermal in these scenarios is the result boiling, where vapor bubbles burst upwards through lamella, causing a fine spray secondary droplets. A smooth surface three post-patterned similar solid fraction but differing pos...
