The stability of relaxation techniques has been studied for strongly coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) with application to a cantilever immersed in channel flow. The fluid is governed by Navier–Stokes equations for incompressible flow condition using turbulence modeling, and the solid is governed by the equation of motion with compressible material modeling. The applied kinematic descripti

A fluid–structure interaction (FSI) technique is applied to study the influence of hydrodynamic damping on the motion of a cantilever in a still tank. The FSI is performed by a partitioned technique, using the deal.II and OpenFOAM open-source packages. An incompressible flow solver is applied for the fluid and a compressible solver for the structure. The motion of the structure is generated by app

The valence excited states and the 3s, 3p, and 3d (united atom) Rydberg states of benzene and phenol have been obtained by the CASPT2 method, which computes a second-order perturbation correction to complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) energies. All non-zero dipole oscillator strengths are also computed, at the CASSCF level. For benzene, 16 singlet and 16 triplet states with ex

The electronic excitation spectra of pyridine and phosphabenzene have been studied using theoretical methods. The electronic states are described by wave functions derived from second-order perturbation theory based on multiconfigurational reference functions. The study includes singlet and triplet valences excited states as well as a number of Rydberg states. For both molecules the transition

Purpose: This qualitative study aimed to investigate experiences and perceptions of hospital physicians regarding the discharging process, focusing on information transfer regarding medications.Methods: By purposive sampling three focus groups were formed. To facilitate discussions and maintain consistency, a semi-structured interview guide was used. Discussions were audio recorded and transcribed

An inserted central venous catheter (CVC) is considered foreign material by the inert host defence systems and induce inflammation and thrombus formation. The objective of this study was to evaluate blood compatibility of six commonly used CVCs. Three coated and three uncoated CVC materials were tested in a modified Chandler loop model. Each catheter material circulated in blood from ten different
