Physics questions. in General
Overwhelming Infiltrator Member # 4637	written Monday, December 5 2005 07:48 Profile Homepage #23 quote: Originally written by saunders: Explanation 2: an analogy. Imagine traffic flow. If the traffic is flowing fast and smoothly, then it is well spaced out (no not like Thuryl on a Saturday night) and you may be able to "see" that the pressure is low. If it now slows down, as at a toll, the vehicles have to be a lot closer together. In fact the increase in "pressure" at a toll causes the road to bulge. There are many other levels of explanation. Like I said, it depends on what you mean by "why". Aham. That explanation doesn't explain that "why". It just confirms what I said. -------------------- Visit the Blades of Avernum Center and the Beta Testing Center -------------- "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."

Overwhelming Infiltrator Member # 4637	written Monday, December 5 2005 06:03 Profile Homepage #21 quote: Originally written by Thuryl: Atherosclerosis increases the mean arterial pressure, true. But the pressure in an individual artery that's narrowed is actually lower than it would be if it weren't. Basically, which of our explanations is correct depends on whether you're considering an individual blood vessel or the circulatory system as a whole. I understand what you mean, but I don't understand how the pressure decrease in an individual artery will translate in a whole system increase (specially if you consider that atherosclerosis affects the whole vascular system, not just specific single arteries, although specific problematic arteries and vassels exist)... A tighter passage and increased vascular resistance in that artery can only, logically, produce higher pressure and lower velocity, not the opposite. The fact that the why can't be explained should make you doubt about that opposite. Let's say you're an old man (age is a risk factor), and you suffer from atherosclerosis (not in a single arthery, but in the whole system, more in specific areas and less in other, but all). There would be many artheries and vassels where, as you say, the pressure would drop and the velocity increase. How could that translate in a general higher pressure and lower velocity? -------------------- Visit the Blades of Avernum Center and the Beta Testing Center -------------- "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."

Overwhelming Infiltrator Member # 4637	written Monday, December 5 2005 04:07 Profile Homepage #19 quote: Originally written by Thuryl: If a region of an artery is narrowed (due to atherosclerosis, for example), fluid will have to travel faster to get through that region, and pressure will drop. This can cause the artery to intermittently collapse and reopen as blood pressure varies throughout the cardiac cycle. I can't agree 100%. Atherosclerosis causes an arthery to be narrowed, making the artery thickier, reducing its flexibility and elasticity AND increasing peripheral vascular resistance. The result is an increase of the blood pressure and lower blood flux velocity. The general elasticity loss can cause a slower response of the baroreceptors (don't know the english name, but they sense and regulate arterial pressure), making them less capable of modulating arterial pressure. "pressure was inversely proportional to velocity", that's correct, but the velocity is what is lowered, not pressure. That's why older people usually have HAT [=high arterial tension=higher pressure] (age is one of the risk factors of atherosclerosis). -------------------- Visit the Blades of Avernum Center and the Beta Testing Center -------------- "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."

Shipwrecked beta in Blades of Avernum
Overwhelming Infiltrator Member # 4637	written Sunday, October 9 2005 06:21 Profile Homepage #34 quote: Originally written by Seletine: My second Blades of Avernum scenario, called Shipwrecked, is ready for beta. The scenario is set on an unexplored island, and is meant for high level parties. This scenario is longer than Nephilim Mystery(9 outdoor sections and the same number of towns). It is recommended for fairly high level parties. People interested in beta testing it can post a message in this thread or send me a private message asking to test it. The scenario package is about 964KB unstuffed and 116KB stuffed. The beta version of the scenario uses custom graphics, and is only compatible with Blades of Avernum 1.1 or newer on the Mac.
