  2. Laminar–turbulent transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminar–turbulent_transition

    When many random vortices erupt as turbulence onsets, the generalized freezing of laminar slip (laminar interlocking) is associated with noise and a dramatic increase in resistance to flow. This might also explain the parabolic isovelocity profile of laminar flow abruptly changing to the flattened profile of turbulent flow – as laminar slip ...

  3. Korotkoff sounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korotkoff_sounds

    As the heart beats, these pulses are transmitted smoothly via laminar (non-turbulent) blood flow throughout the arteries, and no sound is produced. Similarly, if the cuff of a sphygmomanometer is placed around a patient's upper arm and inflated to a pressure above the patient's systolic blood pressure , there will be no sound audible.

  4. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

    The transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Turbulence is flow characterized by recirculation, eddies, and apparent randomness. Flow in which turbulence is not exhibited is called laminar. The presence of eddies or recirculation alone does not necessarily indicate turbulent flow—these phenomena may be present in laminar flow as well.

  5. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodynamics

    The heart is the driver of the circulatory system, pumping blood through rhythmic contraction and relaxation. The rate of blood flow out of the heart (often expressed in L/min) is known as the cardiac output (CO). Blood being pumped out of the heart first enters the aorta, the largest artery of the body.

  6. Turbulence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulence

    The sky depicted in Vincent van Gogh's 1889 painting, The Starry Night has been studied for its turbulent flow. [1]In fluid dynamics, turbulence or turbulent flow is fluid motion characterized by chaotic changes in pressure and flow velocity.

    After decades of flying, pilot Stuart Walker says turbulence isn’t entirely predictable. But there are different types of turbulence pilots watch for. Walker explains each one and what pilots do ...

  8. Implantable loop recorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_loop_recorder

    The ILR monitors the electrical activity of the heart, continuously storing information in its circular memory (hence the name "loop" recorder) as electrocardiograms (ECGs). Abnormal electrical activity - arrhythmia is recorded by "freezing" a segment of the memory for later review.
