What's the difference between vortical and vorticose?

Vortical


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to a vortex or vortexes; resembling a vortex in form or motion; whirling; as, a vortical motion.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) It is in order to fight in a "lo-tech war" on a world that is never named, "flying the frosty vortices of air above the vast white islands that were the colliding tabular icebergs".
  • (2) Our conclusion is that the steady flow field of a BS valve is completely 3-dimensional, featured by two spiral vortices.
  • (3) The ratio was also proportional to the ratio of the cross-sectional areas of vortices to the vessel lumen.
  • (4) California’s Salton Sea is visible at left centre; and Guadalupe Island is visible at lower left, surrounded by von Karman vortices.
  • (5) Study of the prevortical veins showed, in addition, the presence of numerous fine anastomotic vessels which unite the veins which run to the vortical veins.
  • (6) This finding is consistent with the idea of a neural mechanism sensitive to the curl of velocity (i.e., vorticity).
  • (7) Based on the principle of ultrasonic Doppler flowmetry, a power ratio was derived from independent forward and reverse flow Doppler shift signals to measure a ratio of the volume of vortices to the total vessel volume in poststenotic separated flow.
  • (8) However, only large vortices are recorded, so that our turbulent shear stresses are lower than these reported in the literature.
  • (9) Among the new electrophysiological phenomena thus anticipated are paired mirror-image vortices ("rotors") organized around phase singularities.
  • (10) Therefore, solely hemodynamic criteria (detection of vortices) were used to diagnose ulceration.
  • (11) Simulations of velocities, vorticity, pressure and certain stress values were developed by a computer and displayed for man-machine interaction.
  • (12) Desquamating elements often accumulated in waves or vortices, as far as little cornified structures have been described.
  • (13) As regards the frequency of vortices, the differences are significant at the 1% level (in men they form 24.15% patterns, while in women 14.27%).
  • (14) A pair of vortices shed from both the SJM and CMI are clearly visible toward the end of the ventricular filling phase.
  • (15) Formation of vortices behind the leaflets during the LVAS ejection phase was observed in each of the housing designs.
  • (16) The present review outlines the characteristic details of microflow in secondary flow (short-lived vortices) such as they prevail in pulsatile flow in arterial segments with "non-cylindrical configuration".
  • (17) Results showed that sapecin has a vortical structure fixed by 3 disulfide bonds between cysteine residues 3 and 30, 16 and 36, and 20 and 38, respectively, and that these disulfide bonds are essential for its antibacterial activity.
  • (18) Newtonian fluids and blood both developed wavy vortical flow at a rotation rate moderately higher than Tc.
  • (19) The results of the computer simulation demonstrate the development, shift and disappearance of vortices in the excavation and give references to zones of stasis.
  • (20) A concentric ring appearance of the cecal mucosa on a barium enema is a distinctive but nonspecific radiographic finding that has been termed the vortical, whirlwind, or coiled-spring sign.

Vorticose


Definition:

  • (a.) Vortical; whirling; as, a vorticose motion.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Injection of the radiopharmaceutical into the vorticose veins provides the most effective pharmacokinetics, vs. suprachoroidal and subconjunctival injections.
  • (2) The advantages of the technique suggested by the authors--fortification of the eyeball posterior pole with an auto-cartilage plate of the concha of the auricle 15 X 10 X 1 (1.5) mm in size--were revealed: both the immediate and late results of surgery were good, the surgery was low traumatic, no allergic reactions were recorded, the unpleasant sensations of the patients were the minimal; possible complications of scleroplasty, such as optic nerve and vorticose vein compression or perforation of thinned sclera, became less threatening.
  • (3) The syndrome seems to be secondary to a lesion of the vorticose system and to poor circulation conditions in the intrascleral part of this system.
  • (4) The method is simple, safe for the patients, since compression of vorticose veins and optic nerve is ruled out, easily tolerated, and yields a high stabilizing effect (97 percent) as evidenced by a follow-up of 1.5 do 3 years.
