This article presents strategies for improving the efficiency of patient transfers, particularly in hospitals where intensive care units are located in buildings separate from general wards. Patient transfers comprise several steps: physicians issue orders, relatives are notified, equipment is prepared, and medical staff coordinate. We identified three factors that influence transfer time: preparation time for bed transfer, time required for shift handovers, and time required for between-ward patient movement. Unfamiliarity with transfer routes and long elevator wait times were factors that also influenced transfer time. The following strategies were proposed: develop a standardized material checklist, design key notes for patient transfers, and optimize transfer routes. These strategies reduced transfer times by 40% to 43%. This study demonstrates that by addressing logistical challenges and streamlining relevant procedures, hospitals can enhance safety and quality of care during patient transfers.展开更多

文摘The growing need for enhanced heat dissipation is compelling the development of more effective heat exchangers.Innovation inspired by nature bionics,four types of leaf-shaped pin fins were proposed and four combinations of them were considered.The leaf-shaped design of the cooling pin fin enhances uniformity and synergy,effectively creating an optimized flow path that boosts cooling performance.Eight three-dimensional conjugate heat transfer models in staggered arrangement were developed using ANSYS-Fluent software.Aluminum6061material was used as the heat sinkmaterial and single-phase liquid water flowed through the rectangular channel where the Reynolds(R_(e))number varies from 40 to 100.Using the same boundary conditions as the software simulations,two leaf-shaped channels were printed to validate numerical models.Velocity field and temperature differences of the eight proposed leaf-shaped pin fins configurations were discussed by comparison with cylindrical pin fins.Based on the findings of this study,at a Reynolds number of 80,the Leaf B Staggered Array(LBSA)records a maximum temperature that is 0.72 K lower than that of the cylindrical pin fins arrangement.Additionally,the LBSA exhibits a reduction in the friction factor by approximately 33.3%relative to the circular pin fins array under the same R_(e).This implies that the design of LBSA has been optimized to provide better heat dissipation performance while maintaining lower energy consumption.Furthermore,the LBSA demonstrates the most favorable thermal-hydraulic performance index(TPI),which is 1.18 times higher than that of the circular pin fins arrangement at R_(e)=80.The temperature reduction and friction factor reduction of the lobed channel is more pronounced than that of the conventional cooling channel,highlighting its potential to increase heat transfer efficiency and reduce energy consumption in practical applications.

文摘Current research on rail vehicle system vibrations primarily relies on numerical methods,with vibration transfer functions commonly derived through data fitting.However,the physical mechanisms underlying these vibrations are not well understood.To clarify the vibration transfer function and its characteristics,four basic input vectors are defined,and an analytical method is proposed.The vibration transfer functions of the vehicle system are solved,and their spatial coherence is analyzed.The results show that there are two spatial scales and four coherent modes in the vehicle system.The track irregularity wavelengths are combined with two spatial scales to alter the proportions of basic input vectors and then show the characteristics of spatial coherence.Four coherent modes are involved in wheel-rail force and primary suspension force;two coherent modes are involved in bogie vertical motion;and their dominant modes vary with the input frequency.On the other hand,the coherent modes involved in the bogie pitching motion and vehicle body motion are single and fixed over the whole range of frequency.This study presents an analytical method for the rapid solution of dynamic responses in vehicle systems and systematically analyzes the coherence behavior of vibration transfer functions with respect to tracking irregularity wavelengths.
文摘The use of nanofluids as heat transfer media represents an innovative strategy to enhance heat transfer performances.This study investigates experimentally the turbulent convective heat transfer characteristics of waterbased nanofluids containing TiO_(2),CuO,and graphene nanoplatelet(GNP)nanoparticles as they flow through a copper tube.Both the dynamic viscosity and thermal conductivity of these nanofluids were modeled and experimentally measured across varying nanoparticle concentrations(0.01,0.02,and 0.03 vol.%)and temperatures(25℃,35℃,and 45℃).The findings indicate that the behavior of nanofluids depends on the parameter used for comparison with the base fluid.Notably,both the friction factor and heat transfer coefficient increase with higher nanoparticle volume concentrations at a constant Reynolds number.The results further reveal that the GNP/water nanofluid,with a volume concentration of 0.03%at 45℃,exhibit the highest Nusselt number,followed by the CuO/water and TiO_(2)/water nanofluids,with respective increases of 17.8%,11.09%,and 8.11%.

文摘The excited state dynamics and critically regulated factors of reverse intersystem crossing(RISC)in through-space charge transfer(TSCT)molecules have received insufficient attention.Here,five molecules of through space/bond charge transfer inducing thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)are prepared,and their excited state charge transfer processes are studied by ultrafast transient absorption and theoretical calculations.DM-Z has a largerΔEST,leading to a longer lifetime of intersystem crossing(ISC),resulting in the lowest photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY).Oppositely,ISC and RISC are demonstrated to take place with shorter lifetimes for TSCT molecules.The face-to-faceπ-πstacking interactions and electron communication enable DM-B and DM-BX to have an efficient RISC,increasing the weight coefficient of RISC from 1.7%(DM-X)to close to 50%(DM-B and DM-BX)in the solvents,which make DM-BX and DM-B to have a high PLQY.However,partial local excitation in the donor center is observed and the charge transfer is decreased for DM-G and DM-X.The triplet excited state(DM-G)or singlet excited state(DM-X)mainly undergoes inactivation through a non-radiative relaxation process,resulting in less RISC and low PLQY.This work provides theoretical hints to enhance the RISC process in the TADF materials.

文摘Transfer-based Adversarial Attacks(TAAs)can deceive a victim model even without prior knowledge.This is achieved by leveraging the property of adversarial examples.That is,when generated from a surrogate model,they retain their features if applied to other models due to their good transferability.However,adversarial examples often exhibit overfitting,as they are tailored to exploit the particular architecture and feature representation of source models.Consequently,when attempting black-box transfer attacks on different target models,their effectiveness is decreased.To solve this problem,this study proposes an approach based on a Regularized Constrained Feature Layer(RCFL).The proposed method first uses regularization constraints to attenuate the initial examples of low-frequency components.Perturbations are then added to a pre-specified layer of the source model using the back-propagation technique,in order to modify the original adversarial examples.Afterward,a regularized loss function is used to enhance the black-box transferability between different target models.The proposed method is finally tested on the ImageNet,CIFAR-100,and Stanford Car datasets with various target models,The obtained results demonstrate that it achieves a significantly higher transfer-based adversarial attack success rate compared with baseline techniques.

文摘In scenarios such as vehicle radiation monitoring and unmanned aerial vehicle radiation detection,rapid measurements using a NaI(Tl)detector often result in low photon counts,weak characteristic peaks,and significant statistical fluctuations.These issues can lead to potential failures in peak-searching-based identification methods.To address the low precision associated with short-duration measurements of radionuclides,this paper proposes an identification algorithm that leverages heterogeneous spectral transfer to develop a low-count energy spectral identification model.Comparative experiments demonstrated that transferring samples from 26 classes of simulated heterogeneous gamma spectra aids in creating a reliable model for measured gamma spectra.With only 10%of target domain samples used for training,the accuracy on real low-count spectral samples was 95.56%.This performance shows a significant improvement over widely employed full-spectrum analysis methods trained on target domain samples.The proposed method also exhibits strong generalization capabilities,effectively mitigating overfitting issues in low-count energy spectral classification under short-duration measurements.

文摘Catalytic oxidation of organic pollutants is a well-known and effective technique for pollutant abatement.Unfortunately,this method is significantly hindered in practical applications by the lowefficiency and difficult recovery of the catalysts in a powdery form.Herein,a three-dimensional(3D)framework of Fe-incorporated Ni_(3)S_(2)nanosheets in-situ grown on Ni foam(Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2)@NF)was fabricated by a facile two-step hydrothermal process and applied to trigger peroxymonosulfate(PMS)oxidation of organic compounds inwater.A homogeneous growth environment enabled the uniform and scalable growth of Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2)nanosheets on the Ni foam.Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2)@NF possessed outstanding activity and durability in activating PMS,as it effectively facilitated electron transfer from organic pollutants to PMS.Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2)@NF initially supplied electrons to PMS,causing the catalyst to undergo oxidation,and subsequently accepted electrons from organic compounds,returning to its initial state.The introduction of Fe into the Ni_(3)S_(2)lattice enhanced electrical conductivity,promoting mediated electron transfer between PMS and organic compounds.The 3D conductive Ni foam provided an ideal platform for the nucleation and growth of Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2),accelerating pollutant abatement due to its porous structure and high conductivity.Furthermore,its monolithic nature simplified the catalyst recycling process.A continuous flow packed-bed reactor by encapsulating Fe-Ni_(3)S_(2)@NF catalyst achieved complete pollutant abatement with continuous operation for 240 h,highlighting its immense potential for practical environmental remediation.This study presents a facile synthesis method for creating a novel type of monolithic catalyst with high activity and durability for decontamination through Fenton-like processes.

文摘The current deep learning models for braced excavation cannot predict deformation from the beginning of excavation due to the need for a substantial corpus of sufficient historical data for training purposes.To address this issue,this study proposes a transfer learning model based on a sequence-to-sequence twodimensional(2D)convolutional long short-term memory neural network(S2SCL2D).The model can use the existing data from other adjacent similar excavations to achieve wall deflection prediction once a limited amount of monitoring data from the target excavation has been recorded.In the absence of adjacent excavation data,numerical simulation data from the target project can be employed instead.A weight update strategy is proposed to improve the prediction accuracy by integrating the stochastic gradient masking with an early stopping mechanism.To illustrate the proposed methodology,an excavation project in Hangzhou,China is adopted.The proposed deep transfer learning model,which uses either adjacent excavation data or numerical simulation data as the source domain,shows a significant improvement in performance when compared to the non-transfer learning model.Using the simulation data from the target project even leads to better prediction performance than using the actual monitoring data from other adjacent excavations.The results demonstrate that the proposed model can reasonably predict the deformation with limited data from the target project.

文摘Layered double hydroxide(LDH)based heterogonous peroxymonosulfate(PMS)activation degradation of pollutants has attracted extensive attention.The challenge is to selectively regulate the traditional free radical dominant degradation pathway into a nonradical degradation pathway.Herein,an interface ar-chitecture of Ti_(3) C_(2) T_(x)-MXene(MXene)loading on the Fe-Al LDH scaffold was developed,which showed excellent stability and robust resistance against harsh conditions.Significantly,the rate constant for tetra-cycline hydrochloride(TC)degradation in the MXene-LDH/PMS process was 0.421 min^(-1),which was ten times faster than the rate constant for pure Fe-Al LDH(0.042 min^(-1)).Specifically,more reactive Fe with the closer d-band center to the Fermi level results in higher electron transfer efficiency.The occupa-tions of Fe-3d orbitals in Mxene/Fe-Al LDH are pushed above the Fermi level to generate,which results in higher PMS adsorption and inhibition of the release of oxygen-containing active species intermedi-ates,leading to the enhanced^(1)O_(2) generation.Additionally,the built-in electric field in the heterojunc-tion was driven by the charge redistribution between MXene and Fe-Al LDH,resulting in a mediated-electron transfer mechanism,differentiating it from the Fe-Al LDH/PMS system.It was fascinating that MXene/Fe-Al LDH achieved satisfactory treatment efficiency in continuous column reactor and real landfill leachate.

文摘Organic nanophotocatalysts are promising candidates for solar fuels production,but they still face the challenge of unfavorable geminate recombination due to the limited exciton diffusion lengths.Here,we introduce a binary nanophotocatalyst fabricated by blending two polymers,PS-PEG5(PS)and PBT-PEG5(PBT),with matched absorption and emission spectra,enabling a Forster resonance energy transfer(FRET)process for enhanced photocatalysis.These heterostructure nanophotocatalysts are processed using a facile and scalable flash nanoprecipitation(FNP)technique with precious kinetic control over binary nanoparticle formation.The resulting nanoparticles exhibit an exceptional photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate up to 65 mmol g^(-1) h^(-1),2.5 times higher than that single component nanoparticles.Characterizations through fluorescence spectra and transient absorption spectra confirm the hetero-energy transfer within the binary nanoparticles,which prolongs the excited-state lifetime and extends the namely“effective exciton diffusion length”.Our finding opens new avenues for designing efficient organic photocatalysts by improving exciton migration.

文摘Thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)materials driven by a through-space charge transfer(TSCT)mechanism have garnered wide interest.However,access of TSCT-TADF molecules with longwavelength emission remains a formidable challenge.In this study,we introduce a novel V-type DA-D-A’emitter,Trz-mCzCbCz,by using a carborane scaffold.This design strategically incorporates carbazole(Cz)and 2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazine(Trz)as donor and acceptor moieties,respectively.Theoretical calculations alongside experimental validations affirm the typical TSCT-TADF characteristics of this luminogen.Owing to the unique structural and electronic attributes of carboranes,Trz-mCzCbCz exhibits an orange-red emission,markedly diverging from the traditional blue-to-green emissions observed in classical Cz and Trz-based TADF molecules.Moreover,bright emission in aggregates was observed for Trz-mCzCbCz with absolute photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)of up to 88.8%.As such,we have successfully fabricated five organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)by utilizing Trz-mCzCbCz as the emitting layer.It is important to note that both the reverse intersystem crossing process and the TADF properties are profoundly influenced by host materials.The fabricated OLED devices reached a maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE)of 12.7%,with an emission peak at 592 nm.This represents the highest recorded efficiency for TSCT-TADF OLEDs employing carborane derivatives as emitting layers.
文摘In radiology,magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)is an essential diagnostic tool that provides detailed images of a patient’s anatomical and physiological structures.MRI is particularly effective for detecting soft tissue anomalies.Traditionally,radiologists manually interpret these images,which can be labor-intensive and time-consuming due to the vast amount of data.To address this challenge,machine learning,and deep learning approaches can be utilized to improve the accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection in MRI scans.This manuscript presents the use of the Deep AlexNet50 model for MRI classification with discriminative learning methods.There are three stages for learning;in the first stage,the whole dataset is used to learn the features.In the second stage,some layers of AlexNet50 are frozen with an augmented dataset,and in the third stage,AlexNet50 with an augmented dataset with the augmented dataset.This method used three publicly available MRI classification datasets:Harvard whole brain atlas(HWBA-dataset),the School of Biomedical Engineering of Southern Medical University(SMU-dataset),and The National Institute of Neuroscience and Hospitals brain MRI dataset(NINS-dataset)for analysis.Various hyperparameter optimizers like Adam,stochastic gradient descent(SGD),Root mean square propagation(RMS prop),Adamax,and AdamW have been used to compare the performance of the learning process.HWBA-dataset registers maximum classification performance.We evaluated the performance of the proposed classification model using several quantitative metrics,achieving an average accuracy of 98%.

文摘The overall heat transfer coefficient(OHTC)of rock fractures is a fundamental parameter for characterizing the heat transfer behavior of rock fractures in hot dry rock(HDR)geothermal mining.Although a number of practical formulae for heat transfer coefficients have been developed in the literature,there is still no widely accepted analytical solution.This paper constructs highly accurate analytical solutions for the temperatures of the inner fracture wall and the fluid.Then they are employed to develop new definition-based formulae(formula A and its simplification formula B)of the OHTC,which are well validated by the experimental and numerical simulation results.An empirical correlation formula of heat transfer coefficient is proposed based on the definition-based formulae which can be directly used in the numerical simulations of heat transfer in rock fractures.A site-scale application example of numerical simulation also demonstrates the effectiveness of the empirical correlation formula.

文摘Transfer RNA(tRNA)-derived fragments,a new type of tRNA-derived small RNA(tsRNA),can be cleaved from tRNA by enzymes to regulate target gene expression at the transcriptional and translational levels.tsRNAs are not only degradation fragments but also have biological functions,including those in immune inflammation,metabolic disorders,and cell death.tsRNA dysregulation is closely associated with multiple diseases,including various cancers and acute pancreatitis(AP).AP is a common gastrointestinal disease,and its incidence increases annually.AP development is associated with tsRNAs,which regulate cell injury and induce inflammation,especially pyroptosis and ferroptosis.Notably,serum tRF36 has the potential to serve as a non-invasive diagnostic biomarker and leads to pancreatic acinar cell ferroptosis causing inflammation to promote AP.We show the characteristics of tsRNAs and their diagnostic value and function in AP,and discuss the potential opportunities and challenges of using tsRNAs in clinical applications and research.
