  2. Pulsatile flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsatile_flow

    The flow profiles was first derived by John R. Womersley (1907–1958) in his work with blood flow in arteries. [1] The cardiovascular system of chordate animals is a very good example where pulsatile flow is found, but pulsatile flow is also observed in engines and hydraulic systems, as a result of rotating mechanisms pumping the fluid.

  3. Womersley number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Womersley_number

    It is a dimensionless expression of the pulsatile flow frequency in relation to viscous effects. It is named after John R. Womersley (1907–1958) for his work with blood flow in arteries. [1] The Womersley number is important in keeping dynamic similarity when scaling an experiment. An example of this is scaling up the vascular system for ...

    Việt-nam bách-khoa từ-điển (Encyclopedia of Vietnam), a set of encyclopedias with annotations in Chinese, English and French by Đào Đăng Vỹ, a Vietnamese scholar; published from 1959 to 1963 in Saigon, Republic of Vietnam. [3] [4]

  5. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    For this reason, the blood flow velocity is the fastest in the middle of the vessel and slowest at the vessel wall. In most cases, the mean velocity is used. [18] There are many ways to measure blood flow velocity, like videocapillary microscoping with frame-to-frame analysis, or laser Doppler anemometry. [19]

  6. Pulsatile secretion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsatile_secretion

    Pulsatile secretion is a biochemical phenomenon observed in a wide variety of cell and tissue types, in which chemical products are secreted in a regular temporal pattern. The most common cellular products observed to be released in this manner are intercellular signaling molecules such as hormones or neurotransmitters .

    The Vietnamese Wikipedia initially went online in November 2002, with a front page and an article about the Internet Society.The project received little attention and did not begin to receive significant contributions until it was "restarted" in October 2003 [3] and the newer, Unicode-capable MediaWiki software was installed soon after.

  9. Ventricular assist device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_assist_device

    [13] [14] [15] In some pulsatile pumps (that use compressed air as an energy source [16]), the volume occupied by blood varies during the pumping cycle. If the pump is contained inside the body then a vent tube to the outside air is required. Continuous-flow VADs are smaller and have proven to be more durable than pulsatile VADs. [17]
