In this algorithm, the environments are divided into voxels by octree algorithm. In order to satisfy the safety requirement of the UAV, free space is represented by free voxels, which have enough space margin for the UAV to pass through. A bounding box array is created in the whole 3D space to evaluate the free voxel connectivity. The probabilistic roadmap method （PRM） is improved by random sampling in the bounding box array to ensure a more efficient distribution of roadmap nodes in 3D space.

In the isostructural molecules, each crystallographically independent Zn2＋ and Ln3＋ centers are connected by two phenolic oxygen atoms. For the six-coordinate Zn-（2＋） ion, the coordination geometry can be viewed as a regular bicapped square pyramid. While for the ten-coordinate Ln-（3＋） ion, if each O,O？-chelated nitrate ligand is seen as a single coordination site, the coordination geometry can be viewed as a distorted pentagonal bipyramid. The fluorescent spectra show that compounds 2 and 3 exhibited characteristic sharp emissions of Tb-（3＋） and Sm-（3＋）, respectively, while compound 1 was found to be a single-component white-light-emitting complex in the solid state. Thermal stabilities of the three compounds were investigated by using thermal gravimetric analysis. In addition, the thermal decomposition of compound 1 was confirmed by temperature-dependent powder X-ray diffraction technique.展开更多

The novel synthesis of the MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN consists of thermal decomposition of metal–oleate complex containing cobalt and manganese metals and oleate ligand, forming bimetallic oxides nanoparticles, followed by a selfassembly route with reduced graphene oxides. The MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN composite, with a unique architecture of bimetallic oxides nanoparticles encapsulated in 3D graphene networks, rationally integrates several benefits including shortening the di usion path of Li^+ ions, improving electrical conductivity and mitigating volume variation during cycling. Studies show that the electrochemical reaction processes of MnO/Co Mn_2O_4 GN electrodes are dominated by the pseudocapacitive behavior, leading to fast Li^+ charge/discharge reactions. As a result, the MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN manifests high initial specific capacity, stable cycling performance, and excellent rate capability.展开更多

文摘The clinical efficacy was compared between 3D navigation-assisted percutaneous iliosacral screw(3DPS)and minimally invasive reconstruction plate(MIRP)in treating sacroiliac complex injury and the surgical procedures of 3DPS were introduced.A retrospective analysis was performed on 49 patients with sacroiliac complex injury from March 2013 to May 2017.Twenty-one cases were treated by 3DPS,and 28 cases by MIRP.Intraoperative indexes as operative time,blood loss,incision length,length of hospital stay and postoperative complications were respectively documented.Quality of reduction was postoperatively evaluated by Matta radiological criteria,and clinical effect was assessed by Majeed scoring criteria at the last followup.Operative time and hospital stay were significantly shortened,and blood loss,and incision length were significantly reduced in 3DPS group as compared with those in MIRP group(P<0.05).No statistically significant difference was found between 3DPS group and MIRP group in the assessment of reduction and function(P>0.05).It was concluded that both 3DPS and MIRP can effectively treat the sacroiliac complex injury,and 3DPS can provide an accurate,safe and minimally invasive fixation with shorter operative time and hospital stay.

文摘Complicated and large acetabular bone defects present the main challenges and difficulty in the revision of total hip arthroplasty(THA).This study aimed to explore the advantages of three-dimensional(3D)printing technology in the reconstruction of such acetabular bone defects.We retrospectively analyzed the prognosis of four severe bone defects around the acetabulum in three patients who were treated using 3D printing technology.Reconstruction of bone defect by conventional methods was difficult in these patients.In this endeavor,we used radiographic methods,related computer software such as Materialise's interactive medical image control system and Siemens NX software,and actual surgical experience to estimate defect volume,prosthesis stability,and installation accuracy,respectively.Moreover,a Harris hip score was obtained to evaluate limb function.It was found that bone defects could be adequately reconstructed using a 3D printing prosthesis,and its stability was reliable.The Harris hip score indicated a very good functional recovery in all three patients.In conclusion,3D printing technology had a good therapeutic effect on both complex and large bone defects in the revision of THA.It was able to achieve good curative effects in patients with large bone defects.

文摘In this work,the computational complexity of a spin-glass three-dimensional(3D)Ising model(for the lattice sizeN=lmn,wherel,m,n are thenumbersof lattice points along three crystallographic directions)is studied.We prove that an absolute minimum core(AMC)model consisting of a spin-glass 2D Ising model interacting with its nearest neighboring plane,has its computational complexity O(2mn).Any algorithms to make the model smaller(or simpler)than the AMC model will cut the basic element of the spin-glass 3D Ising model and lost many important information of the original model.Therefore,the computational complexity of the spin-glass 3D Ising model cannot be reduced to be less than O(2mn)by any algorithms,which is in subexponential time,superpolynomial.

文摘A series of isostructural d/f molecular compounds Zn（H2L）Ln（NO3）3·CH3OH（Ln = Dy（1）, Tb（2） and Sm（3）） were synthesized by the introduction of a designed multifunctional ligand N,N？,N？？,N？？？-tetra（2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzyl）-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecan（H4L = C（44）H（60）N4O8）. In the isostructural molecules, each crystallographically independent Zn2＋ and Ln3＋ centers are connected by two phenolic oxygen atoms. For the six-coordinate Zn-（2＋） ion, the coordination geometry can be viewed as a regular bicapped square pyramid. While for the ten-coordinate Ln-（3＋） ion, if each O,O？-chelated nitrate ligand is seen as a single coordination site, the coordination geometry can be viewed as a distorted pentagonal bipyramid. The fluorescent spectra show that compounds 2 and 3 exhibited characteristic sharp emissions of Tb-（3＋） and Sm-（3＋）, respectively, while compound 1 was found to be a single-component white-light-emitting complex in the solid state. Thermal stabilities of the three compounds were investigated by using thermal gravimetric analysis. In addition, the thermal decomposition of compound 1 was confirmed by temperature-dependent powder X-ray diffraction technique.

文摘In this manuscript, we have demonstrated the delicate design and synthesis of bimetallic oxides nanoparticles derived from metal–oleate complex embedded in 3D graphene networks(MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN), as an anode material for lithium ion batteries. The novel synthesis of the MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN consists of thermal decomposition of metal–oleate complex containing cobalt and manganese metals and oleate ligand, forming bimetallic oxides nanoparticles, followed by a selfassembly route with reduced graphene oxides. The MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN composite, with a unique architecture of bimetallic oxides nanoparticles encapsulated in 3D graphene networks, rationally integrates several benefits including shortening the di usion path of Li^+ ions, improving electrical conductivity and mitigating volume variation during cycling. Studies show that the electrochemical reaction processes of MnO/Co Mn_2O_4 GN electrodes are dominated by the pseudocapacitive behavior, leading to fast Li^+ charge/discharge reactions. As a result, the MnO/CoMn_2O_4 GN manifests high initial specific capacity, stable cycling performance, and excellent rate capability.

文摘To investigate the long-term stability of deep rocks,a three-dimensional(3D)time-dependent model that accounts for excavation-induced damage and complex stress state is developed.This model comprises three main components:a 3D viscoplastic isotropic constitutive relation that considers excavation damage and complex stress state,a quantitative relationship between critical irreversible deformation and complex stress state,and evolution characteristics of strength parameters.The proposed model is implemented in a self-developed numerical code,i.e.CASRock.The reliability of the model is validated through experiments.It is indicated that the time-dependent fracturing potential index(xTFPI)at a given time during the attenuation creep stage shows a negative correlation with the extent of excavationinduced damage.The time-dependent fracturing process of rock demonstrates a distinct interval effect of the intermediate principal stress,thereby highlighting the 3D stress-dependent characteristic of the model.Finally,the influence of excavation-induced damage and intermediate principal stress on the time-dependent fracturing characteristics of the surrounding rocks around the tunnel is discussed.

文摘It is an important issue to assess traffic situation complexity for air traffic management.There is a lack of systematic review of the existing air traffic complexity assessment methods,and there is no consideration of the role of airspace and traffic coordination mechanism.A new 3-D airspace complexity measurement method is proposed based on route structure constraints to evaluate the air traffic complexity objectively.Firstly,the model of the impact on horizontal and vertical direction for“aircraft pair”is established based on the route guidance.After that,the coupled complexity model for 3-D airspace is given according to the modification on the model in terms of flight standardization.Finally,the global model of the airspace traffic complexity is established.It is proved by the experimental data from the actual operation in airspace that the proposed model can reflect the space coupling situation and complexity of aircraft.At the same time,it can precisely describe the actual operation of civil aviation in China.
