Brain activation during neurocognitive testing using functional near-infrared spectroscopy in patients following concussion compared to healthy controls
There is no accepted clinical imaging modality for concussion, and current imaging modalities including fMRI, DTI, and PET are expensive and inaccessible to most clinics/patients. Functional near-infrared spec...

Two-dimensional discrete mathematical model of tumor-induced angiogenesis
A 2D discrete mathematical model of a nine-point finite difference scheme is built to simulate tumor-induced angiogenesis. Nine motion directions of an individual endothelial cell and two parent vessels are ex...

Determination of in-core power in low energy research reactors by measurement of16N and18F in the primary coolant
The measurement of16N and18F activity in the primary coolant of the JASON Argonaut reactor has been used to monitor in-core reactor power. The16N is produced by the16O(n, p)16N reaction and the 6.1 MeV photopeak ...

Large-Eddy Simulation of Flow and Heat Transfer in Compact Heat Exchangers
LES results are presented for different heat exchanger geometries. Subgrid terms were usually computed by the Smagorinsky model; preliminary comparative results are also given for the ‘dynamic’ subgrid model. ...
