Validation of an algorithm to reveal the U wave in atrial fibrillation (2018)
Journal Article

Major cardiac organisations recommend U wave abnormalities should be reported during ECG interpretation. However, U waves cannot be measured in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) due to the obscuring fibrillatory wave. The aim was to validate a U...

Sarcomeres are building blocks of skeletal muscles. Given force–length relations of sarcomeres serially connected in a myofibril, the myofibril force–length relation can be uniquely determined. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for capa... Read More about Force–length relation of skeletal muscles: from sarcomeres to myofibril.

Viscosity effect on a point absorber wave energy converter hydrodynamics validated by simulation and experiment (2018)
Journal Article
