PURPOSE: Cardiovascular simulators are used in the preclinical testing phase of medical devices. Their reliability increases the more they resemble clinically relevant scenarios. In this study, a physiologically actuated soft robotic left ventricle (...
This study aimed to calculate the effect of nanopatterns' peak sharpness, width, and spacing parameters on P. aeruginosa and S. aureus cell walls by artificial neural network and finite element analysis. Elastic and creep deformation models of bacter...
BACKGROUND: Diffusion distance and diffusivity are known to affect nutrient transport rates, but the probabilistic analysis of these two factors remains vacant. There is a lack of effective tools to evaluate disc nutrient levels.
