Taking the shock out of predicting shock wave behavior with precise computational modeling

Shock waves should not be shocking—engineers across scientific fields need to be able to precisely predict how the instant ...

Can we hear gravitational-wave 'beats' in the rhythm of pulsars?

Pulsars suggest that ultra–low-frequency gravitational waves are rippling through the cosmos. The signal seen by ...

Accuracy of two-dimensional transverse wave elastography of salivary glands in diagnosis of Sjögren’s disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Objectives Two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) is a non-invasive technique for the evaluation of Sjögren’s disease (SjD). This study investigated the diagnostic accuracy of 2D-SWE in ...
