Per-Unit Sequence Models

450
An ideal Y-Y transformer, grounded through neutral impedances, displays per-unit sequence networks akin to those of a single-phase ideal transformer when subjected to balanced positive- or negative-sequence currents. These currents do not produce neutral currents, and their associated voltage drops.
Zero-sequence currents, which are identical in magnitude and phase, generate a neutral current, resulting in voltage drops across the neutral impedance and the low-voltage winding. If the...

Switching of BJT01:22

Switching of BJT

860
Switching behavior in Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) is a fundamental aspect utilized in various electronic circuits, particularly for digital logic applications like switches and amplifiers. In a typical switching circuit, a BJT alternates between cut-off and saturation modes, corresponding to the "off" and "on" states, respectively, thus behaving like an ideal switch.
Cut-off Mode ("Off" State): In this state, both the emitter-base and collector-base junctions are...

The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

Measurement: Standard Units

Every measurement provides three kinds of information: the size or magnitude of the measurement (a number), a standard of comparison for the measurement (a unit), and an indication of the uncertainty of the measurement. While the number and unit are explicitly represented when a quantity is written, the uncertainty is an aspect of the errors in the measurement results.

Units of Measurement

5.2K
Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest branches of engineering. It deals with designing, analyzing, and manufacturing machines and mechanical systems. To ensure precise and accurate calculations, units of measurement are used. They provide a standard system for expressing and comparing physical quantities.
There are various well-known historical measurement systems, such as the Babylonian system, the Roman system, the Egyptian system, the Olympian system, the British system, and the Indus...

International System of Units01:29

International System of Units

5.1K
The International System of Units, known as the SI system, is a universally accepted measurement system recognized and used worldwide. The SI system is based on a set of three base units considered absolute, and their values do not change with location. These base units are meters, kilograms, and seconds.
Prefixes are used to define both larger and smaller quantities in the SI system. For example, milli, micro, and nano define smaller quantities, while kilo, mega, and giga are used to define...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Physiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • The role of longitudinal atrioventricular plane displacement in ventricular pumping is increasingly recognized.
  • Existing models may not fully capture the complex interplay of factors influencing left ventricular (LV) function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a computational model of the left ventricle (LV) based on the atrioventricular piston concept.
  • To quantify the contribution of longitudinal displacement to ventricular pumping and blood flow.
  • To assess the model's ability to reproduce physiological pressure-flow relationships.

Main Methods:

  • Derived differential equations for the LV using the atrioventricular piston concept.
  • Developed a systemic circulatory model incorporating a modified atrioventricular piston unit within a switched system framework.
  • Validated the LV model against clinical data, including pressure-volume loops from cardiac catheterization and LV angiography, using a data fitting method.

Main Results:

  • The end-systolic pressure-volume relationship demonstrated approximate linearity and insensitivity to afterload variations.
  • Model parameter fitting resulted in a root mean squared error of 2.99 mmHg for LV pressure.
  • Derived physiological parameters include LV compliance (0.34 ml/mmHg) and a left ventricular to left atrial cross-section ratio of 1.8.

Conclusions:

  • The developed LV model, incorporating longitudinal displacement, accurately reproduces physiological data and realistic pressure-flow dynamics.
  • The atrioventricular piston concept provides a robust framework for understanding ventricular pumping mechanisms.
  • The model serves as a valuable tool for investigating cardiovascular function and potential pathologies.
