ENDOCOM: Abdominal aortic aneurysm test bench for in vitro simulation
(IEEE, 2007)
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the aorta at the abdominal level, whose rupture is a life threatening complication. Recent treatment procedures of AAA consists in endovascular treatment with covered ...
Surface acoustic waves in rotating orthorhombic crystals
(The Royal Society, 2004-02-08)
The propagation of surface (Rayleigh) waves over a rotating orthorhombic crystal is studied. The crystal possesses three crystallographic axes, normal to the symmetry planes: the half¿space is cut along a plane normal to ...
Seismic Rayleigh waves on an exponentially graded, orthotropic half-space
(The Royal Society, 2007)
Efforts at modelling the propagation of seismic waves in half-spaces with continuously varying properties have mostly been focused on shear-horizontal waves. Here, a sagittally polarized (Rayleigh type) wave travels along ...
Wireless communicative stent for follow-up of abdominal aortic aneurysm,
(IEEE, 2006)
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the aorta at the abdominal level, which rupture is a life threatening complication. Recent treatment of AAA consists in endovascular treatment with covered stent grafts. ...
Onde de Love Piézoacoustique
(2006-04-24)
Une sélection de résultats analytiques et numériques concernant la propagation d'ondes planes harmoniques guidées dans un bicouche piézoélectrique est présentée.
L'étude effectuée concerne les modes transverses horizontaux ...
Surface stability of nonlinear magnetoelastic solids
(Wiley, 2007-12)
The present paper proposes to identify surface stability when a magnetoelastic half-space is subjected to a pure homogeneous pre-deformation and to a magnetic field normal to its (plane) boundary. Clearly, the aim is to ...
Inhomogeneous "longitudinal" circularly-polarized plane waves in anisotropic elastic crystals
(S. Hirzel verlag, Ingenta Connect, 2006)
Conditions on the elastic stiffnesses of anisotropic crystals are derived such that circularly polarized longitudinal inhomogeneous plane waves with an isotropic slowness bivector may propagate for any given direction of ...
Solitary and compact-like shear waves in the bulk of solids
(American Physical Society, 2006-06)
We show that a model proposed by Rubin, Rosenau and Gottlieb J. Appl. Phys. 77 4054 (1995) for dispersion caused by an inherent material characteristic length belongs to the class of simple materials. Therefore, it is ...
Measuring knife stab penetration into skin simulant using a novel biaxial tension device
(Elsevier, 2008)
This paper describes the development and use of a biaxial measurement device to analyse the mechanics of knife stabbings. In medicolegal situations it is typical to describe the consequences of a stabbing incident in ...
Incremental magnetoelastic deformations, with application to surface instability
(Springer, 2008-01)
In this paper the equations governing the deformations of infinitesimal (incremental) disturbances superimposed on finite static deformation fields involving magnetic and elastic interactions are presented. The coupling ...
