Atomistic simulation of primary microstructure formation in metals during crystallization from the melt.

Additive manufacturing of metallic parts by Selective Laser Melting (SLM) implies high temperature gradients and small volume of the melt bath. These conditions make the process scales close to those available for state-of-the-art massively parallel atomistic simulations. In the paper, the microscopic mechanisms responsible for the formation of primary microstructure during molten metal solidification are investigated using classical molecular dynamics (CMD).

Frequency-Domain Features and Low-Frequency Synchronization of Photoplethysmographic Waveform Variability and Heart Rate Variability with Increasing Severity of Cardiovascular Diseases.

-Heart rate variability (HRV) and photoplethysmographic waveform variability (PPGV) are available approaches for assessing the state of cardiovascular autonomic regulation. The goal of our study was to compare the frequency-domain features and low-frequency (LF) synchronization of the PPGV and HRV with increasing severity of cardiovascular diseases. -Our study included 998 electrocardiogram (ECG) and finger photoplethysmogram (PPG) recordings from subjects, classified into five categories: 53 recordings from healthy subjects, aged 28.

Full-Term and Preterm Newborns Differ More Significantly in Photoplethysmographic Waveform Variability than Heart Rate Variability.

Background: Features of cardiovascular autonomic regulation in infants are poorly studied compared with adults. However, the clinical significance of autonomic dysfunction in infants is very high. The goal of our research was to study the temporal and frequency-dependent features, as well as low-frequency synchronization in cardiovascular autonomic regulation in full-term vs.

Machine Learning Technology for EEG-Forecast of the Blood-Brain Barrier Leakage and the Activation of the Brain's Drainage System during Isoflurane Anesthesia.

Anesthesia enables the painless performance of complex surgical procedures. However, the effects of anesthesia on the brain may not be limited only by its duration. Also, anesthetic agents may cause long-lasting changes in the brain.

Effect of pulsed laser parameters on photoacoustic flow cytometry efficiency in vitro and in vivo.

Photoacoustic flow cytometry is one of the most effective approaches to detect "alien" objects in the bloodstream, including circulating tumor cells, blood clots, parasites, and emboli. However, the possibility of detecting high-amplitude signals from these objects against the background of blood depends on the parameters of the laser pulse. So, the dependencies of photoacoustic signals amplitude and number on laser pulse energy (5-150 μJ), pulse length (1, 2, 5 ns), and pulse repetition rate (2, 5, 10 kHz) for the melanoma cells were investigated.
