This approach takes advantage of the superelastic effect of shape memory alloy(SMA) and the cohering characteristic of repairing adhesive. These SMA wires and brittle fibers containing adhesives were embedded into concrete beams during concrete casting to form smart reinforced concrete beams. The self-repairing capacity of smart concrete beams was investigated by three-point bending tests. The experimental results show that SMA wires add self-restoration capacity,the concrete beams recover almost completely after incurring an extremely large deflection and the cracks are closed almost completely by the recovery forces of SMA wires. The number or areas of SMA wires has no influence on the tendency of deformation during loading and the tendency of reversion by the superelasticity. The adhesives released from the broken-open fibers fill voids and cracks. The repaired damage enables continued function and prevents further degradation.展开更多

These artifacts can cause serious problems in subsequent operations such as finite element analysis, reverse engineering, animation, and simulation. In this study we propose a practical method for repairing topological and geometrical errors on mesh. First, coincident vertices during mesh input are removed, fol- lowed by the identification of non-manifold vertices and edges. The non-manifold vertices are modified, and the facets having non-manifold edges are removed. Finally, faces that have the wrong orientations in the mesh are re-oriented. Experiments show that our methods can eliminate most common mesh errors quickly and effectively. The refined mesh can be properly used in subsequent operations.展开更多

AM has been applied to form complex components of Ti, Fe or Ni alloys. However, for other nonferrous alloys such as AI alloys, Mg alloys and Cu alloys, AM may not be appropriate because of its melting nature during processing by laser, electron beam, and/or arc. Cold spraying （CS） has been widely accepted as a promising solid-state coating technique in last decade for its mass production of high-quality metals and alloys, and/or metal matrix composites coatings. It is now recognized as a useful and powerful tool for AM, but the related research work has just started. This review summarized the literature on the state-of-the-art and problems for CS as an AM and repairing technique.展开更多

The temperature field and plastic material flow pattern were analyzed on the basis of experimental and finite element simulation results. Microstructure and tensile properties of the repaired specimens were studied. The results showed that the entire crack repairing was a solid-phase process and plastic materials tended to flow toward the shoulder center and then resulted in the repairing of cracks. Meanwhile, the coarse grain structures were refined in repaired zone （RZ）, while the grains in thermal-mechanically affected zone and heat-affected zone were elongated and driven to grow up. Meanwhile, large phases are crushed into small particles and dispersed inside the RZ. Finally, the strength of the repaired specimens can be restored dramatically and their ductility can be partially restored. After heat treatment, the tensile properties of the repaired specimens can be further enhanced.展开更多

The mechanical hole out of dimension tolerance of AZ31 magnesium alloy was chosen as the repaired object. The results indicated that the AP-RAFSR process rather than the R-AFSR process avoided the kissing bond in the bottom of the repairing interface under the condition of the tool pin length equal to the height of the standard mechanical hole.The continuously-distributed and large-length super-fine grain bands were eliminated in the stir zone by AP-RAFSR. The maximum tensile and compressive-shear strengths of repaired hole by AP-RAFSR reached 190.6 MPa and 138.9 MPa at 1200 rpm respectively, which were equivalent to 97.7% and 89.6% of those of the standard mechanical hole. This AP-RAFSR process assisted by the truncated cone-shaped filling material provides a new technique to obtain a no-depth-increasing, defect-free and high-strength repaired mechanical hole.展开更多

The study investigates the advantages of the CGDS process regarding repairing operation, such as convenient, in-situ repairation,little heat delivery, microstructural and dimensional stability and other special applications. Microstructure and mechanical properties of the copper alloy coating, nickel coating, ceramic composite coating, and their interface to the substrates ,which are usually used in repairing operation have been researched by means of optical microscopy （ OM）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and micro-hardness tests. Experimental results have demonstrated the relative density of the copper alloy coating is as high as 98.7%, and that no obvious difference can be observed between the CrZrCu substrate and the Cu alloy coating in terms of microstructures; thus the interface is quite difficult to be identified. The bonding strength and micro-hardness of the Cu alloy coating reach up to 37 MPa and 310 HV0.2 ,respectively. The interface between the copper alloy coating and the nickel coating is either zigzag or wave shaped, and the cohesion is relatively good. As-sprayed nickel coating is dominated by severely deformed particles,and the relative density is up to 98.5%. Complete recrystallization occurred after annealing at 900℃ for one hour,while its micro-hardness remains as high as 124.1 HV02. All these results have indicated that CGDS is a promising technology for repairing the continuous casting mold and that its future development is prosperous as well.展开更多

One laser beam was used to melt the substrate material of crack, and the other to fill in powder material to the crack region. The experimental results show that the surface crack with the width of 0.1 ～ 0.3?mm could be repaired under the laser power of 3?kW and the scanning speed of 6 ～ 8?mm/s. The repaired deepness of crack region is below 6.5?mm. The microstructure of repaired region is the cellular crystal, columnar crystal dendrite crystal from the transition region to the top filled layer. The phases in repaired region mainly consisted of supersaturated α Co with plenty of Ni, some Cr and Al, Cr 23 C 6, Co 2B, Co Ni Mo, Ni 4B 3, TiSi and VSi. The hardness of filled layer in repaired region ranged from HV 0.2 450 to HV 0.2 500, and the hardness decreases gradually from the filled layer to joined zone.展开更多

DATA SOURCES ： Using the terms ＂nerve conduits, peripheral nerve, nerve regeneration and nerve transplantation＂ in English, we searched Pubmed database, which was published during January 2000 to June 2006, for the literatures related to repairing peripheral nerve defect with various materials. At the same time, we also searched Chinese Technical Scientific Periodical Database at the same time period by inputting ＂ peripheral nerve defect, nerve repair, nerve regeneration and nerve graft＂ in Chinese. STUDY SELECTION ： The materials were firstly selected, and literatures about study on various materials for repairing peripheral nerve defect and their full texts were also searched. Inclusive criteria： nerve conduits related animal experiments and clinical studies. Exclusive criteria： review or repetitive studies. DATA EXTRACTION： Seventy-nine relevant literatures were collected and 30 of them met inclusive criteria and were cited. DATA SYNTHESIS ： Peripheral nerve defect, a commonly seen problem in clinic, is difficult to be solved. Autogenous nerve grafting is still the gold standard for repairing peripheral nerve defect, but because of its application limitation and possible complications, people studied nerve conduits to repair nerve defect. Nerve conduits consist of biological and artificial materials. CONCLUSION： There have been numerous reports about animal experimental and clinical studies of various nerve conduits, but nerve conduit, which is more ideal than autogenous nerve grafting, needs further clinical observation and investigation.展开更多

Different types of section (Solid & with opening) were tested to obtain the effect of amount of CFRP laminate on beams ultimate torque behavior, angle of twist and failure modes. The results obtained showed that a significant effect of external high strength CFRP laminates on effectively restore of section solid, the range of 89.8% to 91.2% of ultimate torsional strength effectively restored as well as effectively restoring of section opening by 83.48% - 86.67% of ultimate torsional strength. The repaired beams give high efficiency in ultimate torsional strength, and indicate that the adopted technique gives a good torsional strength.展开更多

Autologous nerve, allogeneic nerve and xenogeneic nerve are used to bridge nerve defects, it is one of the methods to promote the repair of nerve injury by culturing and growing Schwann cells, which can secrete various neurotrophic factor activities, in the grafts. OBJECTIVE ： To observe the effect of acellular nerve grafts co-cultured with Schwann cells in repairing defects of sciatic nerve. DESIGN： An observational comparative study.SETTING： Tissue Engineering Laboratory of China Medical University.MATERIALS： The experiment was carried out in the Tissue Engineering Laboratory of China Medical University between April 2004 and April 2005. Forty neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats of 5-8 days （either males or females） and 24 male Wistar rats of 180-220 g were provided by the experimental animal center of China Medical University. METHODS： ① Culture of Schwann cells： The bilateral sciatic nerves and branchial plexus were isolated from the 40 neonatal SD rats. The sciatic nerves were enzymatically digested with collagenase and dispase, isolatd, purified and cultured with the method of speed-difference adhersion, and identified with the SABC immunohistochemical method. ② Model establishment： In vitro Schwann cells were microinjected into 10-mm long acellular nerve grafts repairing a surgically created gap in the rat sciatic nerve. According to the different grafted methods, the animals were randomly divided into three groups： autografts （n=8）, acellular nerve grafts （n=8）, or acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells （n=8）. ③ The regenerated nerve fiber number and average diameter of myeline sheath after culture were statistically anlayzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： ① The regenerated nerve ultrastructure, total number and density of myelinated nerve fibers, and the thickness of myeline sheath were observed under electron microscope. ② The images were processed with the Mias-1000 imaging analytical system to calculate the number of myelinated nerve fibers, and the thickness of myeline sheath. RESULTS： All the 24 Wistar rats were involved in the analysis of results. ① Results observed under transmission electron microscope： The regenerated myelinated nerve fibers in the group of acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells were more even than those in the group of acellular nerve grafts, the number of myelinated nerve fibers and thickness of myelin sheath were close to those in the allografts group （P 〉 0.05）, but significantly different from those in the group of acellular nerve grafts （P 〈 0.05）. ② Results observed under scanning electron microscope： A great amount of Schwann cells with two polars were observed in the group of grafts with Schwann cells, the feature of cultured Schwann cells showed shoulder by shoulder, head to head. ③ The number of myelinated nerve fibers and thickness of myelin sheath analyzed by Mias-1000 imaging system in the group of acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells were close to those in the autografts group （P 〉 0.05）, but significantly different from those in the group of acellular nerve grafts （P 〈 0.05）.CONCLUSION： Host axonal regeneration is significantly increased after implant of acellular nerve grafts. Acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells offers a novel approach for repairing the gap of nerve defect.展开更多

文摘High-performance metal additive manufacturing （AM） has been extensively investigated in recent years because of its unique advantages over traditional manufacturing processes. AM has been applied to form complex components of Ti, Fe or Ni alloys. However, for other nonferrous alloys such as AI alloys, Mg alloys and Cu alloys, AM may not be appropriate because of its melting nature during processing by laser, electron beam, and/or arc. Cold spraying （CS） has been widely accepted as a promising solid-state coating technique in last decade for its mass production of high-quality metals and alloys, and/or metal matrix composites coatings. It is now recognized as a useful and powerful tool for AM, but the related research work has just started. This review summarized the literature on the state-of-the-art and problems for CS as an AM and repairing technique.

文摘Each year approximately 360,000 people in the United States suffer a peripheral nerve injury （PNI）, which is a leading source of lifelong disability （Kelsey et al., 1997; Noble et al., 1998）. The most frequent cause of PNIs is motor vehicle accidents, while gunshot wounds, stabbings, and birth trauma are also common factors. Patients suffering from disabilities as a result of their PNIs are also burdensome to the healthcare system, with aver- age hospital stays of 28 days each year （Kelsey et al., 1997; Noble et al., 1998）.

文摘Abstract A friction stir processing-based method was used to repair cracks in the 2024 aluminum alloy plates. The temperature field and plastic material flow pattern were analyzed on the basis of experimental and finite element simulation results. Microstructure and tensile properties of the repaired specimens were studied. The results showed that the entire crack repairing was a solid-phase process and plastic materials tended to flow toward the shoulder center and then resulted in the repairing of cracks. Meanwhile, the coarse grain structures were refined in repaired zone （RZ）, while the grains in thermal-mechanically affected zone and heat-affected zone were elongated and driven to grow up. Meanwhile, large phases are crushed into small particles and dispersed inside the RZ. Finally, the strength of the repaired specimens can be restored dramatically and their ductility can be partially restored. After heat treatment, the tensile properties of the repaired specimens can be further enhanced.

文摘Radial additive friction stir repairing(R-AFSR)assisted by stationary shoulder was put forward in the present study,which can be employed to repair the mechanical hole out of dimension tolerance of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet.The results show that the stationary shoulder has sealed-barrier,heat-sink and extra-forging effects.The heat-sink effect improves the microstructure uniformity along the stir zone(SZ)thickness and the surface appearance of repaired hole,and the sealedbarrier and extra-forging effects eliminate the super-fine grain band in the SZ.Therefore,these three effects improve the formation quality of repaired region,thereby enhancing the mechanical properties of repaired mechanical hole compared with conventional R-AFSR.The tensile and compressive shear strengths of the repaired hole by stationary shoulder R-AFSR both increase first and then decrease when the rotating speed changes from 1200 to 1800 rpm,and these maximum values,respectively,reach 190±3 MPa and 64.5±2 MPa at 1400 rpm.The addition of stationary shoulder during R-AFSR can obtain a higher-quality repaired hole and broaden the repairing process window.

文摘The application of mixed powders with different mass fraction on laser additive repairing(LAR)can be an effective way to guarantee the performance and functionality of repaired part in time.A convenient and feasible approach is presented to repair TA15 forgings by employing Ti6Al4V-xTA15 mixed powders in this paper.The performance compatibility of Ti6Al4V-xTA15 powders from the aspects of microhardness,tensile property,heat capacity,thermal expansion coefficient and corrosion resistance with the TA15 forgings was fully investigated.The primaryαlaths were refined and the volume fraction of the secondaryαphase was increased by increasing the mass fraction of TA15 in the mixed Ti6Al4V-xTA15 powders,leading to varied performances.In conclusion,the mixed Ti6Al4V-70%TA15(x=70%)powders is the most suitable candidate and is recommended as the raw material for LAR of TA15 forgings based on overall consideration of the compatibility calculations of the laser repaired zone with the wrought substrate zone.

文摘In order to avoid the depth increasing of repaired hole and eliminate the super-fine grain band in stir zone by radial-additive friction stir repairing(R-AFSR), a solid-state repairing technique of active-passive radial-additive friction stir repairing(AP-RAFSR) assisted by the truncated cone-shaped filling material was proposed in this study. The mechanical hole out of dimension tolerance of AZ31 magnesium alloy was chosen as the repaired object. The results indicated that the AP-RAFSR process rather than the R-AFSR process avoided the kissing bond in the bottom of the repairing interface under the condition of the tool pin length equal to the height of the standard mechanical hole.The continuously-distributed and large-length super-fine grain bands were eliminated in the stir zone by AP-RAFSR. The maximum tensile and compressive-shear strengths of repaired hole by AP-RAFSR reached 190.6 MPa and 138.9 MPa at 1200 rpm respectively, which were equivalent to 97.7% and 89.6% of those of the standard mechanical hole. This AP-RAFSR process assisted by the truncated cone-shaped filling material provides a new technique to obtain a no-depth-increasing, defect-free and high-strength repaired mechanical hole.
文摘A new continuous casting mold repairing method--cold gas dynamic spraying （CGDS） is introduced. The study investigates the advantages of the CGDS process regarding repairing operation, such as convenient, in-situ repairation,little heat delivery, microstructural and dimensional stability and other special applications. Microstructure and mechanical properties of the copper alloy coating, nickel coating, ceramic composite coating, and their interface to the substrates ,which are usually used in repairing operation have been researched by means of optical microscopy （ OM）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and micro-hardness tests. Experimental results have demonstrated the relative density of the copper alloy coating is as high as 98.7%, and that no obvious difference can be observed between the CrZrCu substrate and the Cu alloy coating in terms of microstructures; thus the interface is quite difficult to be identified. The bonding strength and micro-hardness of the Cu alloy coating reach up to 37 MPa and 310 HV0.2 ,respectively. The interface between the copper alloy coating and the nickel coating is either zigzag or wave shaped, and the cohesion is relatively good. As-sprayed nickel coating is dominated by severely deformed particles,and the relative density is up to 98.5%. Complete recrystallization occurred after annealing at 900℃ for one hour,while its micro-hardness remains as high as 124.1 HV02. All these results have indicated that CGDS is a promising technology for repairing the continuous casting mold and that its future development is prosperous as well.
文摘Surface crack of components of the cast nickel base superalloy was repaired with twin laser beams under proper technological conditions. One laser beam was used to melt the substrate material of crack, and the other to fill in powder material to the crack region. The experimental results show that the surface crack with the width of 0.1 ～ 0.3?mm could be repaired under the laser power of 3?kW and the scanning speed of 6 ～ 8?mm/s. The repaired deepness of crack region is below 6.5?mm. The microstructure of repaired region is the cellular crystal, columnar crystal dendrite crystal from the transition region to the top filled layer. The phases in repaired region mainly consisted of supersaturated α Co with plenty of Ni, some Cr and Al, Cr 23 C 6, Co 2B, Co Ni Mo, Ni 4B 3, TiSi and VSi. The hardness of filled layer in repaired region ranged from HV 0.2 450 to HV 0.2 500, and the hardness decreases gradually from the filled layer to joined zone.
文摘OBJECTIVE： Recently, with the development of biological and artificial materials, the experimental and clinical studies on application of this new material-type nerve conduit for treatment of peripheral nerve defect have become the hotspot topics for professorial physicians. DATA SOURCES ： Using the terms ＂nerve conduits, peripheral nerve, nerve regeneration and nerve transplantation＂ in English, we searched Pubmed database, which was published during January 2000 to June 2006, for the literatures related to repairing peripheral nerve defect with various materials. At the same time, we also searched Chinese Technical Scientific Periodical Database at the same time period by inputting ＂ peripheral nerve defect, nerve repair, nerve regeneration and nerve graft＂ in Chinese. STUDY SELECTION ： The materials were firstly selected, and literatures about study on various materials for repairing peripheral nerve defect and their full texts were also searched. Inclusive criteria： nerve conduits related animal experiments and clinical studies. Exclusive criteria： review or repetitive studies. DATA EXTRACTION： Seventy-nine relevant literatures were collected and 30 of them met inclusive criteria and were cited. DATA SYNTHESIS ： Peripheral nerve defect, a commonly seen problem in clinic, is difficult to be solved. Autogenous nerve grafting is still the gold standard for repairing peripheral nerve defect, but because of its application limitation and possible complications, people studied nerve conduits to repair nerve defect. Nerve conduits consist of biological and artificial materials. CONCLUSION： There have been numerous reports about animal experimental and clinical studies of various nerve conduits, but nerve conduit, which is more ideal than autogenous nerve grafting, needs further clinical observation and investigation.
文摘An experimental study was conducted to investigate the behavior of composite concrete beams damaged and cracked under pure torsion, and then repaired by external strengthening. This was achieved using high strength Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates bonded with epoxy four composite modify reactive powder concrete (MRPC) I-beams. Different types of section (Solid & with opening) were tested to obtain the effect of amount of CFRP laminate on beams ultimate torque behavior, angle of twist and failure modes. The results obtained showed that a significant effect of external high strength CFRP laminates on effectively restore of section solid, the range of 89.8% to 91.2% of ultimate torsional strength effectively restored as well as effectively restoring of section opening by 83.48% - 86.67% of ultimate torsional strength. The repaired beams give high efficiency in ultimate torsional strength, and indicate that the adopted technique gives a good torsional strength.

文摘BACKGROUND： Animal experiments and clinical studies about tissue engineering method applied to repair nerve injury mainly focus on seeking ideal artificial nerve grafts, nerve conduit and seed cells. Autologous nerve, allogeneic nerve and xenogeneic nerve are used to bridge nerve defects, it is one of the methods to promote the repair of nerve injury by culturing and growing Schwann cells, which can secrete various neurotrophic factor activities, in the grafts. OBJECTIVE ： To observe the effect of acellular nerve grafts co-cultured with Schwann cells in repairing defects of sciatic nerve. DESIGN： An observational comparative study.SETTING： Tissue Engineering Laboratory of China Medical University.MATERIALS： The experiment was carried out in the Tissue Engineering Laboratory of China Medical University between April 2004 and April 2005. Forty neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats of 5-8 days （either males or females） and 24 male Wistar rats of 180-220 g were provided by the experimental animal center of China Medical University. METHODS： ① Culture of Schwann cells： The bilateral sciatic nerves and branchial plexus were isolated from the 40 neonatal SD rats. The sciatic nerves were enzymatically digested with collagenase and dispase, isolatd, purified and cultured with the method of speed-difference adhersion, and identified with the SABC immunohistochemical method. ② Model establishment： In vitro Schwann cells were microinjected into 10-mm long acellular nerve grafts repairing a surgically created gap in the rat sciatic nerve. According to the different grafted methods, the animals were randomly divided into three groups： autografts （n=8）, acellular nerve grafts （n=8）, or acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells （n=8）. ③ The regenerated nerve fiber number and average diameter of myeline sheath after culture were statistically anlayzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： ① The regenerated nerve ultrastructure, total number and density of myelinated nerve fibers, and the thickness of myeline sheath were observed under electron microscope. ② The images were processed with the Mias-1000 imaging analytical system to calculate the number of myelinated nerve fibers, and the thickness of myeline sheath. RESULTS： All the 24 Wistar rats were involved in the analysis of results. ① Results observed under transmission electron microscope： The regenerated myelinated nerve fibers in the group of acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells were more even than those in the group of acellular nerve grafts, the number of myelinated nerve fibers and thickness of myelin sheath were close to those in the allografts group （P 〉 0.05）, but significantly different from those in the group of acellular nerve grafts （P 〈 0.05）. ② Results observed under scanning electron microscope： A great amount of Schwann cells with two polars were observed in the group of grafts with Schwann cells, the feature of cultured Schwann cells showed shoulder by shoulder, head to head. ③ The number of myelinated nerve fibers and thickness of myelin sheath analyzed by Mias-1000 imaging system in the group of acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells were close to those in the autografts group （P 〉 0.05）, but significantly different from those in the group of acellular nerve grafts （P 〈 0.05）.CONCLUSION： Host axonal regeneration is significantly increased after implant of acellular nerve grafts. Acellular nerve grafts with Schwann cells offers a novel approach for repairing the gap of nerve defect.
