Computer simulation of finite amplitude standing waves in rigid-walled ducts.
… energy losses encountered in a rigid-walled, closed tube of large length-to-diameter ratio was applied to finite-amplitude standing waves by the use of the Fast Fourier Transform. Computer programs were written to determine the amplitudes and phases of the first 255 harmonics. Curves of …

Multifunctional wearable fingertip electronics
… outer surfaces of thin, elastomeric sheets in closed-tube geometries, specially formed for mounting on fingertips. Multifunctional systems of this type allow electrotactile stimulation with electrode arrays multiplexed using silicon nanomembrane diodes (Si NM), high-sensitivity strain …

Fibronectin and Laminin, extracellular matrix proteins, have an origin in mesoderm tissue and promote anterior neural tube closure in zebrafish
The neural tube, the precursor to the vertebrate central nervous system, forms through the process of neurulation. During neurulation, a flat neural plate folds and the lateral edges bind to form a closed tube. Failure of neurulation results in neural tube defects (NTD). In humans, NTD causes …

An investigation into the intramedullary pressure rise during femoral nailing: does the level and type of fracture determine peak pressures during the procedure?
… during nailing because there is a long 'closed tube' distal to the fracture. Pressure proximal to the fracture does not reach the same high levels because the intra-medullary content is able to decompress through the fracture as the reamer moves distally. With proximal fractures there is …

Development of genotyping systems for pharmacogenomics profiling
… and compared to each other. The HRM system is a closed tube, cheap and (theoretically) rapid method for identifying genetic variations. HRM was however found to be more time consuming, needed further optimization, primer redesigning and more evaluation. The developed genotyping systems could be …

Propagation of premixed flames in confined channels
The propagation of premixed flames in confined channels is investigated. In the unconfined case, the structure of the flame and the flame speed for the adiabatic planar flame have been numerically obtained and confirmed with the existing theory. It is seen that in the unconfined case, the flame …

Numerical Methods for Simulating Fluid Motion Driven By Immersed Interface
… and Navier-Stokes fluid through an elastic tube driven by an internal source and sink. </p><p> For the first topic, we developed two second-order accurate method. One is for accurately evaluating boundary integral solutions at a point, and the other is for computing Stokes solution values on …
