Every state variable of the response system equals the summation of the hybrid drive systems in the previous hybrid synchronization. However, every state variable of the drive system equals the summation of the hybrid response systems while evolving with time in our method. Complete synchronization, hybrid dislocated synchronization, projective synchronization, non-derivative and derivative coupling, and parameter identification are included as its special item. The Lorenz chaotic system, Rssler chaotic system, memristor chaotic oscillator system, and hyperchaotic Lü system are discussed to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective, noncomparative, interventional study of 31 consecutive cases of patients who underwent 23-gauge PPV alone for the removal of dense posteriorly dislocated crystalline lens following complicated cataract surgeries using our bimanual technique was conducted. The main outcomes measured included best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), postoperative IOP and postoperative complications. Results: In all 31 cases included in this study, those dense posteriorly dislocated crystalline lenses were successfully removed. The enrolled patients consisted of 17 males and 14 females with a mean age of (75.84 ± 6.17) years (range 59 - 90). The mean follow-up length was (7.61 ± 1.87) months with a range of 6 months to 1 year. The mean preoperative BCVA was 0.22 ± 0.11 logMAR system, and the postoperative BCVA was 0.33 ± 0.07 logMAR system after 6 months of follow-up. The mean operative time was 46.32 ± 4.80 minutes with a range of 38.00 to 57.00 minutes. All of the conjunctival incisions self-closed within the first week with no wound leakage or hemorrhage. The postoperative complications were relatively rare. Conclusions: The removal of dense posteriorly dislocated crystalline lens might be a challenge for micro-incision vitrectomy. Our bimanual technique was proved to be an effective and safe method for those particular dense lenses using 23-gauge alone.展开更多

文摘The influence of Hf on the precipitation behavior of γ'phase and the subsequent tensile properties of a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy after long-term thermal exposure was investigated.The results reveal that the addition of Hf increases the average diameter ofγ'phases after thermal exposure at 700℃ for 5000 h,which enhances the critical resolved shear stress required for dislocations to shear the γ'phases in the Ni-Cr-Mo alloy.Simultaneously,element Hf incorporated into the γ'phases increases the lattice mismatch between the γ'and γ phase,thereby strengthening the coherency strengthening effect.These two factors collectively contribute to the enhanced strength of the alloy.Thus,Hf alloying effectively improves the yield strength of the Ni-Cr-Mo alloy after thermal exposure at 700℃.

文摘Temporomandibular joint(TMJ)disc displacement is one of the most significant subtypes of temporomandibular joint disorders,but its etiology and mechanism are poorly understood.In this study,we elucidated the mechanisms by which destruction of inflamed collagen fibrils induces alterations in the mechanical properties and positioning of the TMJ disc.By constructing a rat model of TMJ arthritis,we observed anteriorly dislocated TMJ discs with aggravated deformity in vivo from five weeks to six months after a local injection of Freund’s complete adjuvant.By mimicking inflammatory conditions with interleukin-1 beta in vitro,we observed enhanced expression of collagen-synthesis markers in primary TMJ disc cells cultured in a conventional two-dimensional environment.In contrast,three-dimensional(3D)-cultivated disc cell sheets demonstrated the disordered assembly of inflamed collagen fibrils,inappropriate arrangement,and decreased Young’s modulus.Mechanistically,inflammation-related activation of the nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)pathway occurs during the progression of TMJ arthritis.NF-κB inhibition reduced the collagen fibril destruction in the inflamed disc cell sheets in vitro,and early NF-κB blockade alleviated collagen degeneration and dislocation of the TMJ discs in vivo.Therefore,the NF-κB pathway participates in the collagen remodeling in inflamed TMJ discs,offering a potential therapeutic target for disc displacement.

文摘Lutetium oxide(Lu_(2)O_(3))is recognized as a potential laser crystal material,and it is noted for its high ther⁃mal conductivity,low phonon energy,and strong crystal field.Nevertheless,its high melting point of 2450℃induces significant temperature gradients,resulting in a proliferation of defects.The scarcity of comprehensive research on this crystal’s defects hinders the enhancement of crystal quality.In this study,we employed the chemical etching method to examine the etching effects on Lu_(2)O_(3)crystals under various conditions and to identify the optimal conditions for investi⁃gating the dislocation defects of Lu_(2)O_(3)crystals(mass fraction 70%H3PO4,160℃,15-18 min).The morphologies of dislocation etch pits on the(111)-and(110)-oriented Lu_(2)O_(3)wafers were characterized using microscopy,scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy.This research addresses the gap in understanding Lu_(2)O_(3)line defects and offers guidance for optimizing the crystal growth process and improving crystal quality.

文摘Introducing B2 ordering can effectively improve the mechanical properties of lightweight refractory high-entropy alloys(LRHEAs).However,(Zr,Al)-enriched B2 precipitates generally reduce the ductility because their ordering characteristic is destroyed after dislocation shearing.Meanwhile,the local chemical order(LCO)cannot provide an adequate strengthening effect due to its small size.

文摘1.Introduction The strength of metallic materials can be ameliorated by introducing boundaries,precipitates,or defects as obstacles to dislocation movement[1].However,high strength is generally obtained at the sacrifice of plastic deformation capability[2].Lately,many strategies have been proposed to improve the comprehensive properties of materials,among which manipulating stacking fault energy(SFE)is effective[3–5].

文摘This study investigates the effect of high current density electropulsing on the material in a rapid stress relaxation process.An AISI 1020 steel was shot-peened to induce surface compressive residual stresses in a controlled manner and subsequently electropulsed to investigate the changes in microstructure and defect configuration.AISI 1020 steel was chosen as it has a simple microstructure(plain ferritic)and composition with low alloying conditions.It is an appropriate material to study the effect of trans-mitting electric pulses on the microstructural defect evolution.A combination of electron-backscattered diffraction and transmission electron microscopy proved to be an effective tool in characterizing the post-electropulsing effects critically.By application of electropulsing,a reduction in the surface residual stress layer was noticed.Also,reductions in misorientation and dislocation density together with the disentan-glement of dislocations within the cold-worked layer were observed after electropulsing.Additionally,the annihilation of shot-peening-induced deformation bands beyond the residual layer depth was observed.These effects have been rationalised by taking into account the various possibilities of athermal effects of electropulsing.

文摘Fabricating Mg/Al laminate is an effective strategy to circumvent the inherently low formability and poor corrosion resistance of Mg alloys.Here,Mg/Al laminate with good bonding quality and mechanical properties was successfully fabricated via porthole die co-extrusion process using ZK60 Mg and TiB_(2)/6061Al composite as constituted layers.Integrating the results from microstructural characterization and mechanical testing,the effects of extrusion temperature on microstructure,interfacial structure,element diffusion,and mechanical properties were investigated.The results show that Mg/Al laminate achieves a sound welding quality by mechanical bonding and diffusion bonding.The obvious intermetallic compounds(βandγ)layer forms at Mg/Al interface,and its thickness increases to 8.3μm as the extrusion temperature reaches 400℃.High extrusion temperature promotes the dynamic recrystallization and grain growth of Mg and Al layers,while the dislocation density decreases.β/γinterface shows a coherent feature,whileγ/Mg interface is semi-coherent with a locally ordered transition zone of 4.5 nm.The rich Mg and Cr layers are found at TiB_(2)/6061 interface,which is conducive to improving the bonding quality.When the extrusion temperature is 370℃,the thickness of diffusion layer is around 5.0μm,and the bonding strength reaches 18.68 MPa,resulting in the best comprehensive mechanical properties.This work provides a new direction for the development of Mg/Al laminate with excellent strength and ductility.

文摘Asymmetric tilt boundaries on conventional twin boundaries(TBs)are significant for understanding the role of twins on coordinating plastic deformation in many metallic alloys.However,the formation modes of many asymmetric tilt boundaries are hard to be accounted for based on traditional theoretical models,and the corresponding solute segregation is complex.Herein,atomic structures of a specific asymmetric boundary on{1012}TBs were reveled using aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy(HAADF-STEM),molecular dynamics(MD)and density functional theory(DFT)simulations.Reaction between<a60>M dislocations and the{1012}TB can generate a~61°/25°asymmetric tilt boundary.The segregation of Gd and Zn atoms is closely related to the aggregateddislocations and the interfacial interstices of the asymmetric tilt boundary,which is energetically favorable in reducing the total system energy.
