We consider a fractured porous medium that is studied at scale such the fractures can be modeled individually. Models for flow in which are interfaces between subdomains presented. These models take into account interactions and surrounding medium. Existence uniqueness of solution to model problem proved. Error estimates show convergence as $\mathcal{O}(\max\{h,d\})$ L2 norm, where h mesh size d fracture width. Numerical experiments confirm theoretical results.
The new JET ITER-like wall (made of beryllium and tungsten) is more fragile than the former carbon fiber composite requires active protection to prevent excessive heat loads on plasma facing components (PFC). Analog CCD cameras operating in near infrared wavelength are used measure surface temperature PFCs. Region interest (ROI) analysis performed real time maximum measured each ROI sent vessel thermal map. system started October 2011 has already successfully led a safe landing when hot...
Abstract Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a trauma- and stress-related with dysregulated fear responses neurobiological impairments, notably at neurotrophic inflammation levels. Understanding the mechanisms underlying this disease crucial to develop PTSD models that meet behavioral validity criteria as well innovative therapeutic approaches. Serotonin 2C receptors (5-HT2CR) are known for their important role in anxiety, mice having only fully edited VGV isoform of 5-HT2CR, which...
We propose a model for medical device, called stent, designed the treatment of cerebral aneurysms. The stent consists grid, immersed in blood flow and located at inlet aneurysm. It aims promoting clot within is modelled by incompressible Navier-Stokes equations dissipative surface term. stabilized finite element method this we analyse its convergence case Stokes equations. present numerical results academical test cases, on realistic aneurysm obtained from imaging.
During operation of present fusion devices, the plasma facing components (PFCs) are exposed to high heat fluxes. Understanding and preventing overheating these during long pulse discharges is a crucial safety issue for future devices like ITER. Infrared digital cameras interfaced with complex optical systems have become routine diagnostic measure surface temperatures in many magnetic devices. Due complexity observed scenes large amount data produced, use computational performance hardware...
Background and Purpose It has recently been suggested that 5‐HT 3 receptor blockade enhances the efficacy of selective (serotonin) reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants may reverse stress‐induced deficits in rodents. Experimental Approach To further explore this hypothesis, we used mice lacking ( Htr3a KO) their wild‐type (WT) controls to assess response behavioural paradigms relevant anxiety depression. Mice were studied under basal, antidepressant treatments chronic social defeat...
Fast evolution of high-performance cameras in recent years has made them promising tools for observing transient and fast events large-scale scientific experiments. Complex experiments, such as ITER, take advantage imaging system consisting several working the range visible infrared light. However, application devices requires a usage data acquisition systems able to read transfer large amount data, reaching even 10 Gbit/s single camera. The MTCA.4 form factor fulfils requirements demanding...
The purpose of this work is to use a variational method identify some the parameters one-dimensional models for blood flow in arteries. These can be fit approach as much possible data coming from experimental measurements or numerical simulations performed using more complex models. A nonlinear least squares parameter estimation was taken, based on optimization cost function. resolution such an problem generally requires efficient and accurate computation gradient function with respect...
Background:Desensitization and blockade of 5-HT2C receptors (5-HT2CR) have long been thought to be central in the therapeutic action antidepressant drugs. However, besides behavioral pharmacology studies, there is little vivo data documenting antidepressant-induced 5-HT2CR desensitization specific brain areas.
Magnetic confinement fusion tokamaks are complex devices where a large amount of power is required to make the reactions happen. In such experimental conditions, plasma-facing components (PFCs) subjected high heat fluxes that can damage them. Machine protection functions must then be developed operate current and future like ITER in safest way. Tore Supra, IR thermographic diagnostics based on image analysis feedback control used measure monitor heating PFCs during plasma operation. The...
