Our experimental study is devoted to the transition to defect turbulence of a periodic spiral wave pattern occurring in the flow between a rotating and a stationary disk. As the rotation rate Omega of the disk is increased, the radial phase velocity of the waves changes its sign: The waves that propagate first outward on average, then become stationary and finally propagate inward. As they become stationary, the nucleation of topological defects breaks the periodicity of the pattern. For higher Omega, more and more defects are generated in the flow pattern. This article presents the statistical study of this defect mediated turbulence.

Case reports and case series have linked umbilical vein varices (UVVs) with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Newer case reports and series suggest better perinatal outcomes in cases with an isolated UVV. The purpose of this literature review is to determine if there is commonality in management, outcomes, and association in pregnancy with UVV and fetal aneuploidy, growth restriction, demise, thrombosis, and turbulent flow.

Adaptive optics (AO) systems are capable of correcting wavefront aberrations caused by transmission media or defects in optical systems. The deformable mirror (DM) plays a crucial role as a component of the adaptive optics system. In this study, our focus is on analyzing the ability of a 97-element MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) DM to correct blurred images of extended sources affected by atmospheric turbulence.

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts normal brain tissue and functions, leading to high mortality and disability. Severe TBI (sTBI) causes prolonged cognitive, functional, and multi-organ dysfunction. Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) after sTBI can induce abnormalities in multiple organ systems, contributing to cardiovascular dysregulation and increased mortality.

Background: Pseudoaneurysm after coarctation of the aorta (CoA) repair is a rare but severe complication. Contributing factors may include infection, hypertension, aortic wall weakness, and turbulent blood flow at the repair site.
Case Presentation: A 35-year-old male presented with recurrent episodes of epistaxis and dizziness was admitted to the emergency department.

Double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV) is a congenital heart disease. Most cases of DCRV are complicated by another congenital cardiac anomaly. Mostly, a ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the usual comorbidity.
