  1. 1. Effect of valve replacement for aortic stenosis on ventricular function

    Author : Ying Zhao; Michael Henein; Per Lindqvist; Eugenio Picano; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aortic stenosis; aortic valve replacement; echocardiography; speckle tracking; exercise echocardiography; ventricular function; septal radial motion; twist; displacement; strain; strain rate;

    Abstract : Background:Aortic stenosis (AS) is the commonest valve disease in the West. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) remains the only available management for AS and results in improved symptoms and recovery of ventricular functions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aspects on ventilation induced stress and strain on regional and global inflammation in experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome

    Author : Jaime Retamal Montes; Anders Larsson; Göran Hedenstierna; Alejandro Bruhn; Björn Jonson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ARDS; VILI; respiratory rate; strain; PET;

    Abstract : Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving therapy in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a condition that affects 3000 patients/year in Sweden with a mortality rate of about 40%. However, MV may induce or worsen lung injury causing “ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI)”. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Plastic Flow Behaviour of Aluminium Alloys Exhibiting Dynamic Strain Ageing

    Author : Magnus Hörnqvist Colliander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Al-Zn-Mg; Dynamic strain ageing; Strain rate sensitivity; Portevin-Le Chatelier effect; Temperature sensitivity; Thermal activation;

    Abstract : The phenomenon known as dynamic strain ageing, abbreviated DSA, has been known since the beginning of last century. It was first discovered as serrations in the load-elongation curve obtained upon deforming specimens of certain alloys in tension. This phenomenon became known as the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) effect. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling of the Fletcher-Gent effect and obtaining hyperelastic parameters for filled elastomers

    Author : Rickard Österlöf; Leif Kari; Per-Erik Austrell; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; filled elastomers; natural rubber; carbon black; Fletcher-Gent effect; Payne-effect; finite strain; hyperelastic;

    Abstract : The strain amplitude dependency , i.e. the Fletcher-Gent effect and Payne effect, and the strain rate dependency of rubber with reinforcing fillers is modelled using a modified boundary surface model and implemented uniaxially. READ MORE

  5. 5. High strain rate deformation of Alloy 718

    Author : Joakim Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Split-Hopkinson; Alloy 718; Johnson-Cook;

    Abstract : Alloy 718 is a high temperature alloy, used where high temperature strength or oxidation resistance is required. As the alloy is precipitate heat treatable it is possible to have a large variety of strength depending on microstructure. READ MORE
