ABSTRACT Background Safe and effective pediatric blood pumps continue to lag far behind those developed for adults. To address this growing unmet clinical need, we are developing a hybrid, continuous‐flow, magnetically levitated, total artificial heart (TAH). Our hybrid TAH design, the Dragon Heart (DH), integrates both an axial flow centrifugal pump within single, compact housing. The is embedded in central hub region of pump, rotate around common axis, while maintaining separate fluid...
To address the unmet clinical need for pediatric circulatory support, we are developing an operationally versatile, hybrid, continuous-flow, total artificial heart ("Dragon Heart"). This device integrates a magnetically levitated axial and centrifugal blood pump. Here, utilized validated flow pump, focused on development of A motor was integrated to drive achieving 50% size reduction. The design simulated by finite element analysis, pump improvement attained computational fluid dynamics....
Synopsis The mechanisms associated with the ability of owls to fly silently have been subject scientific interest for many decades and may be relevant bio-inspired design reduce noise flapping non-flapping flying devices. Here, we characterize near wake dynamics flow structures produced during flight Australian boobook owl (Ninox boobook). Three individual were flown at 8 ms−1 in a climatic avian wind tunnel. velocity field was sampled 500 Hz using long-duration high-speed particle image...
The majority of bearingless permanent magnet slice motors (BPMSMs) used in commercially available rotary blood pumps use a two-phase configuration, but it is unclear as to whether or not comparable three-phase configuration would offer better performance. This study compares the performance and BPMSM configurations. Initially, two nominal designs were manufactured empirically tested for their characteristics, namely, axial stiffness, radial current force. Subsequently, finite element...
This article looks back on the record of British Colonial Service in Africa, with a particular focus how it ran Zambia immediately prior to its independence 1964. The author, member that service, argues that, for all their faults, colonial administrators discharged duties dedication, skill and welfare general population mind. There is, he notes, need better understanding positive effects contact between cultures rule engendered societies such as Zambia.
Background: To address the unmet clinical need for pediatric mechanical circulatory support devices, we are developing an operationally versatile, hybrid, continuous-flow, total artificial heart (Dragon Heart). This constitutes first device to integrate axial and centrifugal blood pump with both pumps magnetically suspended. Methods: We employed a validated flow pump, focused here on development of pump. A motor was integrated drive achieves 50% reduction relative prior iterations. The...
