The LHC Run 3, started in 2022, has seen increased data-taking and simulation production rates, with which the current infrastructure would still cope but may be stretched to its limits by the end of Run 3. A new core storage service is being developed in HBase/Phoenix, and there is work in progress to provide at least the same functionality as the current one for increased data ingestion and search rates and with increasing volumes of stored data. In addition, new tools are being developed for solving the needed access cases within the new storage. This paper describes a new tool using Spark and implemented in Scala for accessing the big data quantities of the EventIndex project stored in HBase/Phoenix. With this tool, we can offer data discovery capabilities at different granularities, providing Spark Dataframes that can be used or refined within the same framework. Data analytic cases of the EventIndex project are implemented, like the search for duplicates of events from the same or different datasets. An algorithm and implementation for the calculation of overlap matrices of events across different datasets are presented. Our approach can be used by other higher-level tools and users, to ease access to the data in a performant and standard way using Spark abstractions.

In order to construct a tumor growth model, an angiogenesis model is used with focus on controlling the tumor volume, preventing new establishment, dissemination, and growth. The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is effectively applied to Navier-Stokes’ equation for obtaining the numerical simulation of blood flow through vasculature. It is observed that the flow features are extremely sensitive to stenosis severity, even at small strains and stresses, and that a severe effect on flow patterns and wall shear stresses is noticed in the tumor blood vessels. It is noted that based on the nonlinear deformation of the blood vessel’s wall, the flow rate conditions became unstable or distorted and affect the complex blood vessel’s geometry and it changes the blood flow pattern. When the blood flows inside the stenotic artery, depending on the presence of moderate or severe stenosis, it can lead to insufficient blood supply to the tissues in the downstream. Consequently, the highly disturbed flow occurs in the downstream of the stenosed artery, or even plaque ruptures happen when the flow pattern becomes very irregular and complex as it transits to turbulent which cannot be described without assumptions on the geometry.
