This paper presents a non-contact optical method for measuring these deformation in vitro or in vivo, and the data-processing procedure for the three-dimensional coordinate reconstruction of the aorta surface. The accuracy of this method is tested with a known cylinder. This method has been used in the study of the rabbit aorta and the result shows that it is valuable in the research on the mechanical properties of the blood vessel.展开更多

Theoretical and numerical results reveal that this exotic phenomenon is attributed to the noticeable velocity and temperature gradients induced at the junctures of the micro- and meso-slits, which cause significant loss of sound energy as a result of viscous and thermal effects. It is demonstrated that the proposed thin multi-slit hybrid structure with micro-scale configuration is capable of controling low frequency noise with large wavelength, which is attractive for applications where the size and weight of a sound absorber are restricted.展开更多
