Wisteria is a woody, deciduous, ornamental, perennial climbing vine belonging to the pea family (Fabaceae), one of the largest families of flowering plants. Wisteria vein mosaic virus (WVMV) is one of the most destructive viruses of wisteria. The virus causes mild mosaic mottling, chlorotic spots, necrotic flecks, and distortion or twisting, as well as a reduced flowering ability, …

Get MoreAuthor summary Cerebral autoregulation in the complex vascular networks of the brain is an amazing achievement. We believe that numerical analysis of the cerebral blood circulation using an anatomically precise vascular model provides a powerful tool for evaluating the direct relationships between local- and global-scale blood flows. However, there is a lack …
Get MoreI. Introduction. Within and across species, leaves are enormously diverse in venation architecture. Ever since a seminal review introduced a new integrative science of leaf venation (Roth-Nebelsick et al., 2001), there has been increasing recognition across plant biology and ecology of the importance of leaf venation.We aimed to initiate new researchers into the …

Get MoreThis article focuses on the layout design of grooved condenser wick structures to improve the surface temperature uniformity for vapor chamber heat spreaders. The design is formulated as a general "area-to-point" (AP) heat conduction problem in disk-shaped configuration. The fundamental relationship between the heat transfer performance and the …
Get MoreBiomechanical functions of veins such as nutrient transport and structural stiffness are integrated into the computational morphogenesis. The influence of the curved shape of mesophyll on the vein distribution is examined. This study reveals the optimization mechanisms underlying the intriguing overall layout of venation systems.

Get MoreCryoballoon ablation of the pulmonary veins (PVs) has become a common approach for the treatment of patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation.1 The relative simplicity, fast learning curve, and lower interoperator variability have resulted in widespread adoption of this technique in clinical practice.2 Recently, a second cryoballoon technology (POLARx; Boston …
Get MoreThe tongue is one of the most sensitive organs of the human body. The changes in the tongue indicate the changes of the human state. One of the features of the tongue, which can be used to inspect the blood circulation of human, is the shape information of the sublingual vein. Therefore, this paper aims to segment the sublingual vein from the RGB images of the tongue. …
