Analysis of the Total Leakage Characteristics of Finger Seal Considering Fractal Wear and Fractal Porous Media Seepage Effects

As an advanced flexible ORG COFFEE SUBSTITUTE dynamic sealing technology, the leakage characteristics of a finger seal (FS) is one of the key research areas in this technology field.Based on the fractal theory, this paper establishes a mathematical model of the FS main leakage rate considering the fractal wear effect by taking into account the infl

Disentangling the contributions of agentic, antagonistic, and neurotic narcissism to drive for thinness and drive for muscularity.

Body image concerns revolving around body ideals (thin ideal, muscular ideal) are widespread among women.Whereas a stronger preoccupation with ideal physical appearance is often assumed for narcissistic women, previous empirical findings have been mixed.Following a tripartite structure of agentic, antagonistic, and neurotic narcissism facets, we re

Biventricular versus Conduction System Pacing after Atrioventricular Node Ablation in Heart Failure Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Conduction system pacing (CSP) modalities, including His-bundle pacing (HBP) and left bundle branch pacing (LBBP), are increasingly used as alternatives to biventricular (BiV) pacing in heart failure (HF) patients scheduled for pace and ablate strategy.The aim of the study was to compare clinical outcomes of HF patients with refractory AF who recei
