Improving Our Understanding of the Mechanisms Behind Protein Aggregation in Biologics The stability of protein treatments, such as enzyme replacements and monoclonal antibodies, is an ongoing challenge in modern medicine. Using the model protein BSA, we methodically analyze the role of different mechanical and interfacial stresses in...
Histological analysis is vital for understanding tissue structure and diagnosing diseases, but manual segmentation of tissue layers is often time-consuming and inconsistent. This unsupervised method segments skin tissue layers—dermis, subcutaneous, and muscle using K-means clustering, neighborhood histograms, and Dijkstra's algorithm. Unlike prior approaches, it requires...
The objective of this study is to introduce a novel approach for detecting atrial fibrillation (AFib) by analyzing Lead II electrocardiograms (ECGs) using a distinct set of features. To achieve this goal, we employed advanced signal processing techniques, including proper orthogonal decomposition, continuous wavelet transforms,...
The 75th Annual Meeting began on Sunday, November 20, 2022, and ended on Tuesday, November 22, 2022. ...
Transition to turbulence in pulsatile pipe flow is of interest in a variety of biological flow domains including in the left ventricle and aorta, aneurysms, and stenotic vessels. Transitional flow can critically alter distributions of important hemodynamic parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS). Many previous...
Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is often used to remove experimental or measurement noise from velocity fields by producing a reduced order model (ROM) of the dataset. The accuracy of POD is primarily governed by the choice of which POD “modes” to use when reconstructing the...
We gladly welcome 4 additional Ph.D. students into our group to work on exciting and intriguing fluid mechanics problems. Welcome Luis Sanjuan, Rudra Sethi, Ruhi Sharmin and Shailee Mitra. ...
We had a wonderful lab outing with great food and company to celebrate various achievements of the lab including the graduation of Lalit, Sreyashi and Brett. Sreyashi with her graduation card ...
