Résumé :

The mechanics of airflow in the large airways during inspiration affects important physiological functions such as ventilation, olfaction, heat exchange and mass transfer. The behaviour of the airflow is important not only for healthcare applications including diagnosis, intervention planning and assessment, but for inhalation toxicology. This research aims to further the understanding of human nasal physiology through computational modelling. Specifically, the effects of transient inhalation conditions on flow dynamics and transport were characterised and the changes in flow behaviour in resp

Résumé :

In the interest of furthering the understanding of hemodynamics, this study has developed a method for modeling fluid mechanics behavior in individual human carotid arteries. A computational model was constructed from magnetic resonance (MR) data of a phantom carotid bifurcation model, and relevant flow conditions were simulated. Results were verified by comparison with previous in vitro experiments. The methodology was extended to create subject-specific carotid artery models from geometry data and fluid flow boundary conditions which were determined from MR and phase contrast MR (PCMR) sc

This paper will use the natural laws of the universe and amassed evidence to support a dynamic systems theory approach to explain the mechanics and fixed operations of the human experience taking place inside a causally determined universe without the possibility of free will. By reductionary methods, the universe and all its’ contents, including human agents, will be exemplified as complex dynamic systems. In so doing, the human experience is reduced to being comprised of information acting and reacting with other information existing in the universe, specifically ideas. Allowing ideas to tak

Résumé :

In an effort to help understand the mechanical properties of human platelets, their deformations were measured using micropipette experiments over an aspiration pressure range of 1-5 cmH2O, in steps of 1 cmH2O. The experiments confirmed the previously reported linear relationship between deformation and pressure. The experimental results were used to determine the material constants of a thin-axisymmetric shell model based on a strain-energy constitutive relation to describe the platelet deformations under aspiration. The model was successful in capturing the experimental deformations. It also

In general, the study contends that insufficient attention is paid to ethical issues in HMS research.

Résumé :

Pre-eclampsia, fetal growth restriction and stillbirth are major pregnancy disorders throughout the world. The underlying pathogenesis of these diseases is defective placentation characterised by inadequate invasion of extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells into the uterine decidua. This invasion is necessary to transform the uterine arteries, ensuring an adequate maternal blood supply into the intervillous space for normal fetal growth and development. The mechanisms that regulate trophoblast invasion remains poorly understood, but it is known to be influenced by a number of factors in the uter

Eleven highly trained male endurance athletes (average VO2max = 72.5 +/- 4.3 ml/kg/min) performed three intense interval running workouts of 10 x 400m at an average running velocity of 357.9 +/- 9.0 m/min, with a minimum of 4 days between runs.

Despite this ubiquity and importance, the details of how each structural component within the flagellum is orchestrated to generate bending waves, or even the elastic material response from the sperm flagellum, is far from fully understood.

Résumé :

Humans routinely make movements to targets that have different accuracy requirements in different directions. Examples extend from everyday occurrences such as grasping the handle of a coffee cup to the more refined instance of a surgeon positioning a scalpel. The attainment of accuracy in situations such as these might rest upon the nervous system's capacity to regulate the limb's resistance to displacement, or impedance. To test this idea, subjects made movements from random starting locations to targets that had shape dependant accuracy requirements. A robotic device was used to assess both

This thesis takes off in a problem with a game mechanic in a game called OfficeGame.

The conclusions could be summarized as that the two new concepts are not more motivational in themselves. But if one would like to change the original mechanic, it could be by making it more difficult, adding other values than just virtual, and making a stron

The mechanics of locomotion classically take into account the work done by muscle force to raise and accelerate the body center of mass and to accelerate limbs with respect to it at each step.

Thus, the unavoidable damping opposing segmental oscillation due to anatomical structures within or around the pivoting centers has never been measured so far.
