There are two main types of circulatory systems - open and closed. In an open system, blood is only partially contained as it travels through sinuses and vessels to directly contact tissues before returning to the heart. In a closed system, blood is entirely contained within vessels that extend throughout the body. Most vertebrates have a closed system. Circulatory patterns also differ - single-loop systems have one pump moving blood unidirectionally while double-loop systems have two pumps moving blood to and from the lungs or gills in two separate loops. Modern mammals have evolved four-chambered hearts that act as two separate pumps to separately oxygenate blood.
The spinal cord receives its blood supply from three main sources: the anterior spinal artery, the posterior spinal arteries, and radicular arteries. The anterior spinal artery arises from the vertebral arteries and supplies the anterior two-thirds of the spinal cord. The posterior spinal arteries each arise from a vertebral artery and supply the posterior third. Radicular arteries arise from various arteries and anastomose with the anterior and posterior spinal arteries, forming a network around the entire cord. Venous drainage involves six longitudinal veins that freely anastomose and communicate with veins in the cranium and along the spinal nerves.
This document provides an introduction to cardiac muscle tissue. It discusses that cardiac muscle tissue forms the heart and contracts involuntarily to pump blood through the body. Cardiac muscle fibers are long, branched, and cylinder-shaped cells that are joined end to end. The fibers contain striations and are crossed by intercalated discs. The document outlines the main components of cardiac muscle tissue, including cardiomyocytes, intercalated discs, myofibrils, sarcomeres, and cardiac conducting cells. It describes how calcium ions trigger the myosin and actin filaments to slide past each other, causing contraction of the cardiac muscle fibers.
The document discusses the human circulatory system. It describes how the heart pumps blood throughout the body, transporting materials and gases to different parts. The human circulatory system is a closed system, with the heart containing four chambers to pump both oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The double circulation allows for sufficient oxygen to be delivered to cells through the lungs and body. Blood pressure is also discussed, with systolic and diastolic pressure measurements provided. High blood pressure occurs when artery diameter decreases due to cholesterol, forcing the heart to work harder to maintain blood flow.
The document summarizes the three main types of muscle tissue in the human body: skeletal, cardiac, and visceral muscle. Skeletal muscle is voluntary and controls physical movement. Cardiac muscle is exclusively located in the heart and is involuntary. Visceral muscle is smooth muscle that controls internal organs. Each muscle type has distinct anatomical features and functions essential for movement, pumping blood, and digestion.
Cardiac muscle tissue is found in the heart and is made up of myocardial and electrical cells. It contracts involuntarily to pump blood through the heart. Skeletal muscle tissue allows for voluntary physical movements and is composed of long, fibrous myocytes found in the muscular system. The main difference between the tissues is that cardiac muscle contracts involuntarily while skeletal muscle contracts voluntarily.
The document discusses the circulatory system, including its components and functions. It describes the closed circulatory system in humans, which involves the heart pumping blood through arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins. The circulatory system transports nutrients, gases, wastes and more throughout the body. Blood consists of plasma and formed elements like red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin and transport oxygen, while white blood cells help fight infection. Platelets help the blood clot to stop bleeding.

Blood vessels carry blood throughout the body via different types of vessels - arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins. The main types of blood vessels are described including their structure, layers, role in circulation and factors that influence blood flow. Arteries carry blood away from the heart, veins carry blood back to the heart, and capillaries allow for exchange of oxygen, nutrients and waste between the blood and tissues. Proper circulation is maintained through vessel structure, autonomic control, and various pumping mechanisms.
Cardiac muscle tissue is found only in the walls of the heart. It has a unique branching and weaving structure with overlapping regions between fibers called intercalated discs. Each cardiac muscle fiber contains one centrally located nucleus and lighter striations than skeletal muscle. Contractions are rhythmic and involuntary due to inherent pacemaker cells in the heart.

Here are the key points about the baroreceptor reflex:
- Baroreceptors are pressure sensors located in the carotid sinuses and aortic arch.
- When blood pressure increases, the baroreceptors are stimulated and send action potentials to the cardioregulatory center in the medulla oblongata.
- The cardioregulatory center responds by increasing parasympathetic stimulation and decreasing sympathetic stimulation to the heart. This lowers heart rate and stroke volume.
- The end result is a decline in blood pressure, providing a negative feedback loop to maintain blood pressure within a normal range.
The baroreceptor reflex is an important autonomic mechanism that helps regulate short-term blood pressure levels

Here are the most common forms of abdominal trauma:
1. Blunt trauma - This is caused by blunt, non-penetrating forces applied to the abdomen, such as a kick, punch, fall, or car accident. Blunt trauma can cause bruising, bleeding, and organ damage or rupture without breaking the skin. The liver, spleen, and kidneys are most commonly injured in blunt trauma.
2. Penetrating trauma - Sharp objects like knives, bullets, or fragments can penetrate the abdominal wall and damage internal organs. Gunshot wounds and stab wounds are examples of penetrating trauma.
3. Blast injuries - Explosions can cause penetrating or blunt force trauma to the abdomen from bomb fragments or the blast wave itself

The document provides an overview of the cardiovascular system including its main components and functions. It describes the heart anatomy, blood circulation, types of blood vessels, cardiac cycle, electrophysiology, role of calcium in muscle contraction, hemodynamics, and nervous system regulation. The cardiovascular system functions to pump blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients and remove waste through a dual circulatory pathway consisting of the pulmonary and systemic circuits.
The lymphatic system consists of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, the spleen, thymus, and bone marrow. It works with the immune and cardiovascular systems. Lymph is formed from excess interstitial fluid drained by lymphatic capillaries. It flows through lymph vessels and nodes which filter the lymph before returning it to blood circulation. The thymus and bone marrow are primary lymphatic organs where immune cells mature and multiply. Secondary organs like lymph nodes, spleen and tonsils initiate immune responses against pathogens.
Cardiovascular disease is now the leading cause of death worldwide due to the epidemiologic transition driven by industrialization and lifestyle changes. By 2030, 33% of all deaths are expected to be from cardiovascular disease, with coronary heart disease accounting for 14.9% of male deaths and 13.1% of female deaths, and stroke accounting for 10.4% of male deaths and 11.8% of female deaths. Behavioral risk factors like tobacco use, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity associated with modernization are major contributors to the growing burden of cardiovascular disease globally.
The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and blood. The heart is a four-chambered dual pump contained within one organ. It pumps blood from the low-pressure veins to the high-pressure arteries. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs and the left ventricle pumps blood to the body. Two circulatory loops - pulmonary and systemic - distribute and collect blood throughout the body.
The document describes the structure and function of the human heart. It discusses the heart's location in the thorax, its layers, chambers, valves, blood supply and nerve innervation. It explains the cardiac cycle in detail, describing the different phases of ventricular systole and diastole. It also discusses the generation of the four heart sounds and their timing in the cardiac cycle.
This document discusses the physiology of the heart. It begins by describing the different types of cardiac muscle and how cardiac muscle cells are interconnected. It then covers the cardiac cycle, including diastole and systole. Action potentials in cardiac muscle are longer than in skeletal muscle due to slow calcium channels. Contraction is triggered by calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and extracellular fluids. The heart pumps in two stages - the atria prime the ventricles, then the ventricles eject blood. Various waves in pressures, ECG, and sounds are related to the different cardiac cycle events.

Applications of artificial Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering.pdfAtif Razi
Historically, mechanical engineering has relied heavily on human expertise and empirical methods to solve complex problems. With the introduction of computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), the field took its first steps towards digitization. These tools allowed engineers to simulate and analyze mechanical systems with greater accuracy and efficiency. However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.
AI offers the capability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make predictions with a level of speed and accuracy unattainable by traditional methods. This has profound implications for mechanical engineering, enabling more efficient design processes, predictive maintenance strategies, and optimized manufacturing operations. AI-driven tools can learn from historical data, adapt to new information, and continuously improve their performance, making them invaluable in tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern mechanical engineering.
We have designed & manufacture the Lubi Valves LBF series type of Butterfly Valves for General Utility Water applications as well as for HVAC applications.
Accident detection system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The Rapid growth of technology and infrastructure has made our lives easier. The
advent of technology has also increased the traffic hazards and the road accidents take place
frequently which causes huge loss of life and property because of the poor emergency facilities.
Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could get accident information and
reach in time. Our project will provide an optimum solution to this draw back. A piezo electric
sensor can be used as a crash or rollover detector of the vehicle during and after a crash. With
signals from a piezo electric sensor, a severe accident can be recognized. According to this
project when a vehicle meets with an accident immediately piezo electric sensor will detect the
signal or if a car rolls over. Then with the help of GSM module and GPS module, the location
will be sent to the emergency contact. Then after conforming the location necessary action will
be taken. If the person meets with a small accident or if there is no serious threat to anyone’s
life, then the alert message can be terminated by the driver by a switch provided in order to
avoid wasting the valuable time of the medical rescue team.

Paper Title
Particle Swarm Optimization–Long Short-Term Memory based Channel Estimation with Hybrid Beam Forming Power Transfer in WSN-IoT Applications
Authors
Reginald Jude Sixtus J and Tamilarasi Muthu, Puducherry Technological University, India
Abstract
Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) helps to overcome various difficulties in future technology wireless communications. NOMA, when utilized with millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, channel estimation becomes extremely difficult. For reaping the benefits of the NOMA and mm-Wave combination, effective channel estimation is required. In this paper, we propose an enhanced particle swarm optimization based long short-term memory estimator network (PSOLSTMEstNet), which is a neural network model that can be employed to forecast the bandwidth required in the mm-Wave MIMO network. The prime advantage of the LSTM is that it has the capability of dynamically adapting to the functioning pattern of fluctuating channel state. The LSTM stage with adaptive coding and modulation enhances the BER.PSO algorithm is employed to optimize input weights of LSTM network. The modified algorithm splits the power by channel condition of every single user. Participants will be first sorted into distinct groups depending upon respective channel conditions, using a hybrid beamforming approach. The network characteristics are fine-estimated using PSO-LSTMEstNet after a rough approximation of channels parameters derived from the received data.

A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...DharmaBanothu
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

Two main forces drive ions across cell
membranes:
Chemical potential: an ion will move down
its concentration gradient.
Electrical potential: an ion will move away from
ions/molecules of like charge.
17. Ion Channels
The transmembrane potential (TMP) is the
electrical potential difference (voltage) between
the inside and the outside of a cell. When there is
a net movement of +ve ions into a cell, the TMP
becomes more +ve, and when there is
a net movement of +ve ions out of a cell, TMP
becomes more –ve.
22. Contractile proteins
a) Main contractile elements:
Myosin: thick filaments with globular heads evenly spaced
along their length; contains myosin ATPase.
Actin: smaller molecule (thin filaments) consisting of two
strands arranged as an alpha-helix, woven between myosin
filaments.
b) Regulatory elements:
Tropomyosin: double helix that lies in the groove between
actin filaments. It prevents contraction in the resting state by
inhibiting the interaction between myosin heads and actin.
Troponin: complex with three subunits that sits at regular
intervals along the actin strands.
