Last decades, the number of routine childhood vaccinations has increased considerably, which consequently has led to multiple vaccine injections per consultation. Implementation of additional vaccines will probably lead to more than 2 vaccine injections per consult, which might be a barrier for parents to vaccinate their child. A decrease in vaccination coverage, however, increases the risk of ...

An injector design for the long pulse option for the second axis of the Dual-Axis Radiographic Hydrotest Facility (DARHT) has been studied. This design is based on the LBNL Heavy Ion Fusion Injector technology. The proposed injector consists of a single gap diode extracting electrons from a thermionic source and powered through a high voltage ceramic insulator column by a Marx generator. The ke...

The concepts of laser-plasma based accelerator and injector are discussed here. Recent tests done at LOA as well as design studies of high-quality few GeV’s electron beam with low energy spread (1%) are presented. These laser-produced particle beams have a number of interesting properties and could lend themselves to applications in many fields, including medicine (radiotherapy), chemistry (rad...

in this work, result of experimental investigation on interaction of fuel spray generated by a swirled type injector, with air motion in a prototype cylinder are presented. experiments were carried out by planar imaging and particle image velocimetry (piv) techniques in order to provide information about the spray structure evolution and instantaneous velocity distribution of air motion and fue...

Freehand three-dimensional ultrasound system allows intra-operative imaging of pathologic tissue for image-guided injection. Accurate registration of ultrasound image for injection navigation requires calibration that is timeconsuming and tedious. We present an efficient calibration system based on a clinical injector. The injector equipped with an optical tracking sensor is moved in the vicini...

We developed an inkjet-based DNA injector for microchip electrophoresis system based on a straight microchannel. The inkjet-based DNA injector enables us to precisely control injection volume of DNA and to use a simple straight microchannel for chip electrophoresis, whereas we need cross channel injector or T injector as well as complicated voltage programming for conventional chip electrophore...
