By incorporating stimuli-responsive polymers and/or functional fillers, MEW-based 4D printing creates scaffolds capable of undergoing controlled, reversible shape transformations in response to external stimuli over time. These dynamic 4D scaffolds can be tailored for minimally invasive delivery, remote actuation, and real-time responsiveness to physiological environments, making them highly relevant for biomedical applications. This review systematically elucidates the principles of MEW-based 4D printing, including material considerations, actuation methods, and structure design strategies, along with shape programming and morphing mechanisms.

Herein, we design covalent organic framework(COF) scaffold membrane with gate-lane nanostructure for efficient Li^(+)/Mg^(2+) separation. COF nanosheets, serving as the scaffold, are intercalated by polyethyleneimine(PEI) to form the permeating layer. Subsequently, PEI on the surface reacts with 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate to form the polyurea gating layer. The gating layer, bearing tailored smaller pore size,affords high rejection to co-ions(Mg^(2+)) and thus high Li^(+)/Mg^(2+) selectivity. The permeating layer, with asymmetric charge and spatial nanostructure for creating individual lanes of Li^(+) and Cl~-, facilitates Li^(+) transport and thus high Li^(+) permeability. The optimum COF scaffold membrane exhibits the permeance of 11.5 L m^(-2) h^(-1)/bar^(-1) and true selectivity of 231.9 with Li^(+) enrichment of 120.2% at the Mg^(2+)/Li^(+) mass ratio of 50, exceeding the ideal selectivity of 80.5 and outperforming all ever-reported positively charged nanofiltration membranes. Our work may stimulate the further thinking about how to design the hierarchical membrane structure to achieve favorable ion mixing effect and break the membrane permeability-selectivity trade-off in chemical separations.展开更多

Measured frequencies are selected as the first-layer reference data, and the mass of the bridge deck, the grid density, the modulus of concrete and the ballast on the side span are modified by using a manual tuning technique. Measured global positioning system （GPS） data is selected as the second-layer reference data, and the degradation of the integral structure stiffness EI of the whole bridge is taken into account for the second-layer model updating by using the finite element iteration algorithm. The Nanpu Bridge in Shanghai is taken as a case to verify the applicability of the proposed model updating method. After the first-layer model updating, the standard deviation of modal frequencies is smaller than 7%. After the second-layer model updating, the error of the deflection of the mid-span is smaller than 10%. The integral structure stiffness of the whole bridge decreases about 20%. The research results show a good agreement between the calculated response and the measured response.展开更多

Single factor experiment and orthogonal test were applied to optimize the formulation;the pharmacokinetic study was performed in beagle dogs adopting actarit common tablets as reference tablets. The optimal formulation was as follows: drug layer: 150 mg actarit, 240 mg PEO-N80, 50 mg NaCl;push layer: 140 mg PEO-WSR303, 20 mg NaCl;coating solution: 30 g cellulose acetate and 6 g PEG 4000 in 1000 ml 94% acetone solution, 60 mg coating weight gain. The pharmacokinetic study showed that T max was prolonged by the contrast of commercial common tablets with constant drug release rate, but the bioavailability was equivalent. And a good in vivo –in vitro correlation of the actarit osmotic pump tablets was also established. The designed actarit osmotic pump tablets can be applied for rheumatoid arthritis, proposing a promising replacement for the marked common products.展开更多

The inner, loose layer has about 100-μm-diameter pores, while the outer, compact layer has about 10-μm-diameter pores. In a rat model of incomplete spinal cord injury, a large number of neural stem cells were seeded into the loose layer, which was then adhered to the injured side, and the compact layer was placed against the lateral side. The results showed that the transplantation of neural stem cells in a double-layer collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes promoted the differentiation of neural stem cells, attenuated the pathological lesion, and signiifcantly improved the motor function of the rats with incomplete spinal cord injuries. These experimental ifndings suggest that the transplantation of neural stem cells in a double-lay-er collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes is an effective therapeutic strategy to repair an injured spinal cord.展开更多

Pub Med(Medline),EMBASE(Excerpta Medical Database),AMED(Allied and Complementary medicine Database),Scopus and online content,were searched for studies reporting on the Ni Ti-S polyurethane-covered double oesophageal stent for the treatment of malignant dysphagia. Weighted pooled outcomes were synthesized with a random effects model to account for clinical heterogeneity. All studies reporting the outcome of palliative management of dysphagia due to histologically confirmed malignant oesophageal obstruction using double-layered covered nitinol stent were included. The level of statistical significance was set at α = 0.05.RESULTS Six clinical studies comprising 250 patients in total were identified. Pooled technical success of stent insertion was 97.2%(95%CI: 94.8%-98.9%; I2 = 5.8%). Pooled complication rate was 27.6%(95%CI: 20.7%-35.2%; I2 = 41.9%). Weighted improvement of dysphagia on a scale of 0-5 scoring system was-2.00 [95%CI:-2.29%-(-1.72%); I2 = 87%]. Distal stent migration was documented in 10 out of the 250 cases examined.Pooled stent migration rate was 4.7%(95%CI: 2.5%-7.7%; I2 = 0%). Finally,tumour overgrowth was reported in 34 out of the 250 cases with pooled rate of tumour overgrowth of 11.2%(95%CI: 3.7%-22.1%; I2 = 82.2%). No funnel plot asymmetry to suggest publication bias(bias = 0.39,P = 0.78). In the sensitivity analysis all results were largely similar between the fixed and random effects models.CONCLUSION The double-layered nitinol stent provides immediate relief of malignant dysphagia with low rates of stent migration and tumour展开更多

Because of the complexity of governing equations, the numerical solutions were obtained in detail by finite difference method. Then, the numerical solutions were compared with the analytical solutions in condition that non-Darcian flow law was degenerated to Dary's law, and the comparison results show that numerical solutions are reliable. Finally, consolidation behavior of double-layered soil with different parameters was analyzed, and the results show that the consolidation rate of double-layered soil decreases with increasing the value of exponent and threshold of non-Darcian flow, and the exponent and threshold gradient of the first soil layer greatly influence the consolidation rate of double-layered soil. The larger the ratio of the equivalent water head of external load to the total thickness of double-layered soil, the larger the rate of the consolidation, and the similitude relationship in classical consolidation theory of double-layered soil is not satisfied. The other consolidation behavior of double-layered soil with non-Darcian flow is the same as that with Darcy's law.展开更多

By computer simulation, the results show that IOLs should be selectively established according to certain parameters rather than the simple in-sight principle.展开更多

According to Appendix XC Ⅱ of Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010 edition Volume II, a small glass-method was adopted at the rotational speed of 100 r/min using 100 mL phosphate buffer （pH 6.8） as release medium. The release amount was determined by HPLC with a C18 column （250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm） using the mobile phase consisting of methanol -0.4% carboxylic acid （65：35） at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 242 nm. The current method demonstrates good linearity over the range 4.052- 405.2 μg/mL （r2=0.9999） with an average recovery of 105.5%（RSD= 1.25%）. The accumulative release of alliin/alliinase double-layer tablets had good homogeneity for withinand betweenbatches. The method established is simple, accurate and repeatable for the determination of allicin release from alliin/alliinase double-layer tablets.展开更多

文摘The aim of the study was to develop actarit double-layered osmotic pump tablets to overcome the weak points of actarit common tablets, such as short half-life and large plasma concentration fluctuations. Single factor experiment and orthogonal test were applied to optimize the formulation;the pharmacokinetic study was performed in beagle dogs adopting actarit common tablets as reference tablets. The optimal formulation was as follows: drug layer: 150 mg actarit, 240 mg PEO-N80, 50 mg NaCl;push layer: 140 mg PEO-WSR303, 20 mg NaCl;coating solution: 30 g cellulose acetate and 6 g PEG 4000 in 1000 ml 94% acetone solution, 60 mg coating weight gain. The pharmacokinetic study showed that T max was prolonged by the contrast of commercial common tablets with constant drug release rate, but the bioavailability was equivalent. And a good in vivo –in vitro correlation of the actarit osmotic pump tablets was also established. The designed actarit osmotic pump tablets can be applied for rheumatoid arthritis, proposing a promising replacement for the marked common products.
文摘A novel double-layer collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes in each layer was designed and tested in this study. The inner, loose layer has about 100-μm-diameter pores, while the outer, compact layer has about 10-μm-diameter pores. In a rat model of incomplete spinal cord injury, a large number of neural stem cells were seeded into the loose layer, which was then adhered to the injured side, and the compact layer was placed against the lateral side. The results showed that the transplantation of neural stem cells in a double-layer collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes promoted the differentiation of neural stem cells, attenuated the pathological lesion, and signiifcantly improved the motor function of the rats with incomplete spinal cord injuries. These experimental ifndings suggest that the transplantation of neural stem cells in a double-lay-er collagen membrane with unequal pore sizes is an effective therapeutic strategy to repair an injured spinal cord.
文摘AIM To investigate the efficacy of double-layered covered stent in the treatment of malignant oesophageal obstructions.METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed following the PRISMA process. Pub Med(Medline),EMBASE(Excerpta Medical Database),AMED(Allied and Complementary medicine Database),Scopus and online content,were searched for studies reporting on the Ni Ti-S polyurethane-covered double oesophageal stent for the treatment of malignant dysphagia. Weighted pooled outcomes were synthesized with a random effects model to account for clinical heterogeneity. All studies reporting the outcome of palliative management of dysphagia due to histologically confirmed malignant oesophageal obstruction using double-layered covered nitinol stent were included. The level of statistical significance was set at α = 0.05.RESULTS Six clinical studies comprising 250 patients in total were identified. Pooled technical success of stent insertion was 97.2%(95%CI: 94.8%-98.9%; I2 = 5.8%). Pooled complication rate was 27.6%(95%CI: 20.7%-35.2%; I2 = 41.9%). Weighted improvement of dysphagia on a scale of 0-5 scoring system was-2.00 [95%CI:-2.29%-(-1.72%); I2 = 87%]. Distal stent migration was documented in 10 out of the 250 cases examined.Pooled stent migration rate was 4.7%(95%CI: 2.5%-7.7%; I2 = 0%). Finally,tumour overgrowth was reported in 34 out of the 250 cases with pooled rate of tumour overgrowth of 11.2%(95%CI: 3.7%-22.1%; I2 = 82.2%). No funnel plot asymmetry to suggest publication bias(bias = 0.39,P = 0.78). In the sensitivity analysis all results were largely similar between the fixed and random effects models.CONCLUSION The double-layered nitinol stent provides immediate relief of malignant dysphagia with low rates of stent migration and tumour

文摘Based on non-Darcian flow law described by exponent and threshold gradient within a double-layered soil, the classic theory of one-dimensional consolidation of double-layered soil was modified to consider the change of vertical total stress with depth and time together. Because of the complexity of governing equations, the numerical solutions were obtained in detail by finite difference method. Then, the numerical solutions were compared with the analytical solutions in condition that non-Darcian flow law was degenerated to Dary's law, and the comparison results show that numerical solutions are reliable. Finally, consolidation behavior of double-layered soil with different parameters was analyzed, and the results show that the consolidation rate of double-layered soil decreases with increasing the value of exponent and threshold of non-Darcian flow, and the exponent and threshold gradient of the first soil layer greatly influence the consolidation rate of double-layered soil. The larger the ratio of the equivalent water head of external load to the total thickness of double-layered soil, the larger the rate of the consolidation, and the similitude relationship in classical consolidation theory of double-layered soil is not satisfied. The other consolidation behavior of double-layered soil with non-Darcian flow is the same as that with Darcy's law.
文摘The velocity structures of flow through vertically double-layered vegetation(VDLV)as well as single-layered rigid vegetation(SLV)were investigated computationally with a three-dimensional(3D)Reynolds stress turbulence model,using the computational fluid dynamics(CFD)code FLUENT.The detailed velocity distribution was explored with a varying initial Froude number(Fr),with consideration of the steady subcritical flow conditions of an inland tsunami.In VDLV flows,the numerical model successfully captured the inflection point in the profiles of mean streamwise velocities in the mixing-layer region around the top of short submerged vegetation.An upward and downward movement of flow occurred at the positions located just behind the tall and short vegetation,respectively.Overall,higher streamwise velocities were observed in the upper vegetation layer due to high porosity,with Pr=98%(sparse vegetation,where Pr is the porosity),as compared to those in the lower vegetation layer,which had comparatively low porosity,with Pr=91%(dense vegetation).A rising trend of velocities was found as the flow passed through the vegetation region,followed by a clear sawtooth distribution,as compared to the regions just upstream and downstream of vegetation where the flow was almost uniform.In VDLV flows,a rising trend in the flow resistance was observed with the increase in the initial Froude number,i.e.,Fr?0.67,0.70,and 0.73.However,the flow resistance in the case of SLV was relatively very low.The numerical results also show the flow structures within the vicinity of short and tall vegetation,which are difficult to attain through experimental measurements.

文摘To further investigate the one-dimensional(1D)rheological consolidation mechanism of double-layered soil,the fractional derivative Merchant model(FDMM)and the non-Darcian flow model with the non-Newtonian index are respectively introduced to describe the deformation of viscoelastic soil and the flow of pore water in the process of consolidation.Accordingly,an 1D rheological consolidation equation of double-layered soil is obtained,and its numerical analysis is performed by the implicit finite difference method.In order to verify its validity,the numerical solutions by the present method for some simplified cases are compared with the results in the related literature.Then,the influence of the revelent parameters on the rheological consolidation of double-layered soil are investigated.Numerical results indicate that the parameters of non-Darcian flow and FDMM of the first soil layer greatly influence the consolidation rate of double-layered soil.As the decrease of relative compressibility or the increase of relative permeability between the lower soil and the upper soil,the dissipation rate of excess pore water pressure and the settlement rate of the ground will be accelerated.Increasing the relative thickness of soil layer with high permeability or low compressibility will also accelerate the consolidation rate of double-layered soil.

文摘As an important scheme of future global mobile satellite communication systems to provide multimedia service, a Double-Layer Satellite Network （DLSN） with MEO satellites and LEO satellites is proposed. The Inter-Orbit-Links （IOLs） between layers is an essential factor, which affects the performances of the DLSN systems. Considering certain constellation parameters, the geometric characteristics of IOLs are described and the connectivity of MEO satellites and LEO satellites in the DLSN is analyzed. By computer simulation, the results show that IOLs should be selectively established according to certain parameters rather than the simple in-sight principle.

文摘The time-sequenced damage behavior of the reactive projectile impacting double-layer plates is discussed.The analytical model considering the combined effect of kinetic and chemical energy is developed to reveal the damage mechanism.The influences of impact velocity and reactive projectile chemical characteristics on the damage effect are decoupled analyzed based on this model.These analyses indicate that the high energy releasing efficiency and fast reaction propagation velocity of the reactive projectile are conducive to enhancing the damage effect.The experiments with various reactive projectiles impact velocity increasing from 702 to 1385 m/s were conducted to verify this model.The experimental results presented that,the damage hole radius of the rear-plate increases with the increase of impact velocity.At the impact velocity of 1350 m/s,the radius of damage hole formed by PTFE/Al/Bi_(2)O_(3),PTFE/Al/MoO_(3),PTFE/Al/Fe_(2)O_(3)projectile on the rear-plate become smaller in sequence.These results are consistent with the analytical model prediction,demonstrating that this model can predict the damage effect quantitatively.This work is of constructive significance to the application of reactive projectiles.

文摘This paper proposes a type of double-layer charge liner fabricated using chemical vapor deposition(CVD)that has tungsten as its inner liner.The feasibility of this design was evaluated through penetration tests.Double-layer charge liners were fabricated by using CVD to deposit tungsten layers on the inner surfaces of pure T2 copper liners.The microstructures of the tungsten layers were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope(SEM).The feasibility analysis was carried out by pulsed X-rays,slug-retrieval test and static penetration tests.The shaped charge jet forming and penetration law of inner tungsten-coated double-layer liner were studied by numerical simulation method.The results showed that the double-layer liners could form well-shaped jets.The errors between the X-ray test results and the numerical results were within 11.07%.A slug-retrieval test was found that the retrieved slug was similar to a numerically simulated slug.Compared with the traditional pure copper shaped charge jet,the penetration depth of the double-layer shaped charge liner increased by 11.4% and>10.8% respectively.In summary,the test results are good,and the numerical simulation is in good agreement with the test,which verified the feasibility of using the CVD method to fabricate double-layer charge liners with a high-density and high-strength refractory metal as the inner liner.
文摘A simple, precise and accurate method was developed and validated for the determination of allicin release from alliin/alliinase double-layer tablets. According to Appendix XC Ⅱ of Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2010 edition Volume II, a small glass-method was adopted at the rotational speed of 100 r/min using 100 mL phosphate buffer （pH 6.8） as release medium. The release amount was determined by HPLC with a C18 column （250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm） using the mobile phase consisting of methanol -0.4% carboxylic acid （65：35） at a flow rate of 1 mL/min and UV detection at 242 nm. The current method demonstrates good linearity over the range 4.052- 405.2 μg/mL （r2=0.9999） with an average recovery of 105.5%（RSD= 1.25%）. The accumulative release of alliin/alliinase double-layer tablets had good homogeneity for withinand betweenbatches. The method established is simple, accurate and repeatable for the determination of allicin release from alliin/alliinase double-layer tablets.

文摘To understand the mesoscopic mechanism of clayey soil in view of macroscopic behavior, it is essential to quantitatively calculate the electric double-layer repulsion between arbitrarily inclined clay particles.However, suitable calculation methods with high efficiency and accuracy are still rare at present in literature. Based on a great number of numerical calculations of the repulsion between two inclined platy clay particles, explicit empirical formulae for estimating electric double-layer repulsion between clay particles are put forward. Comparison between the empirical solutions and corresponding numerical results shows that the proposed formulae have a reasonable accuracy, and application of the presented formula is easy and efficient.

文摘Based on analysis of the main forming methods for double-layer tube,a new short-term forming process called thixo-co-extrusion was put forward in producing double-layer tube by combining the semi-solid forming technology and multi-billet extrusion technology.By means of forward extrusion with shaft,a finite element model of thixo-co-extrusion with A356/AZ91 was constructed by ABAQUS FEM software.The distributions of temperature field and velocity field as well as the contact force during thixo-co-extrusion were studied.The diffusion on the interfaces between inner and outer metals was analyzed.The simulation results show that,in the beginning of thixo-co-extrusion,the uneven wall thickness can appear.To thickness ratio of 5:5,a double layer tube with good inner and outer wall combination can be realized if VA356 is 0.12 m/s and VAZ91 is 0.20 m/s.

文摘For delivering the nanoscaled extraordinary characteristics in macroscopical bulk,it is essential to integrate two-dimensional nanosheets into threedimensional(3D)porous monoliths,alternatively called as 3D architectures,3D networks,or aerogels.The intersupported structure of porous monolithic 3D graphene(3DG)can prevent aggregation or restacking of graphene individuals,and the interconnected sp^(2) network of 3DG not only can provide the highway for the transport of electron/phonon but also can present continual cavities/channels for mass transfer.This review summarizes the synthesis methodology of 3DG porous monoliths and highlights the application for electric double-layer capacitors.Present challenges and future prospects about the manufacture and application of 3DG are also discussed.
