X-ray diagnostics have the potential for making quantitative measurements in many
flowfields where optical diagnostics are challenging, especially multiphase flows. In the past …

In recent years, several techniques have been introduced that are capable of extracting 3D
three-component velocity fields in fluid flows. Fast-paced developments in both hardware …

During breathing, lung inflation is a dynamic process involving a balance of mechanical
factors, including trans-pulmonary pressure gradients, tissue compliance and airway …

Computed tomography (CT) and spirometry are the mainstays of clinical pulmonary
assessment. Spirometry is effort dependent and only provides a single global measure that …

Fluid flow through intricate confining geometries often exhibits complex behaviors, certainly
in porous materials, eg, in groundwater flows or the operation of filtration devices and …

Extremely useful techniques exist to observe the interior of deforming opaque materials, but
these methods either require that the sample is replaced with a model material or that the …

Résumé The dynamic response of rocks to thermal, hydrodynamical, mechanical, and
geochemical solicitations is of fundamental interest in several disciplines of geosciences …

In recent years, pulmonary imaging has seen enormous progress, with the introduction,
validation and implementation of new hardware and software. There is a general trend from …

Alterations in regional lung function due to respiratory infection have a significant effect on
the deposition of inhaled treatments. This has consequences for treatment effectiveness and …

Blood-perfused tissue models are joining the emerging field of tumor engineering because
they provide new avenues for modulation of the tumor microenvironment and preclinical …
