Characterization of two iron bullets from the royal ammunition factory of Eugi (Spain)
In this work, a comparative analysis of two iron bullets found in The Royal Ammunition Factory of Eugi in Navarra (Spain) was performed. Both bullets presented a spherical shape with a relatively good state of preservation, ... -
Influence of a commercial antithrombotic filter on the caval blood flow during neutra and valsalva maneuver
Anticoagulants are the treatment of choice for pulmonary embolism. When these fail or are contraindicated, vena cava filters are effective devices for preventing clots from the legs from migrating to the lung. Many ... -
Experimental bench for hemodynamic study of coronary artery with serial stenoses: fractional flow reserve assessment
The aim of this study was to develop an experimental hemodynamic bench to elucidate the influences of such geometrical parameters on the FFR assessment. As a first approach, the present work was focused on the influence ... -
On studying the interaction between different stent models and rabbit tracheal tissue: numerical, endoscopic and histological comparison
Stenting technique is employed worldwide for treating atherosclerotic vessel and tracheal stenosis. Both diseases can be treated by means of metallic stents which present advantages but are affected by the main problem of ... -
In vitro comparison of Günther Tulip and Celect filters. Testing filtering efficiency and pressure drop
In this study, the trapping ability of the Günther Tulip and Celect inferior vena cava filters was evaluated. Thrombus capture rates of the filters were tested in vitro in horizontal position with thrombus diameters of 3 ... -
A theoretical model of the endothelial cell morphology due to different waveforms
Endothelial cells are key units in the regulatory biological process of blood vessels. They represent an interface to transmit variations on the fluid dynamic changes. They are able to adapt its cytoskeleton, by means of ... -
Numerical and experimental study of the fluid flow through a medical device
The purpose of this paper is to verify a commercial software based fluid–structure interaction scheme for the inferior vena cava. Vena cava deep thrombosis (TVP) is a potentially deathly disease consequent to pulmonary ... -
Dynamic considerations of heel-strike impact in human gait
Based on the impulsive-dynamics formulation, this article presents the analysis of different strategies to regulate the energy dissipation at the heel-strike event in the context of human locomotion. For this purpose, a ... -
