The in?uences of induction brazing parameters on the residual stresses of polycrystalline CBN abrasive grits have been analyzed, including the embedding depth, grit side length, etc. Results obtained show that the tensile stress with a 40% embedding depth is 292 MPa, which is the minimum on the bonding interface compared with other embedding depths. Meanwhile, the maximum tensile stress is 575 MPa, with an increase of 59% compared with that of a grit side length of 50 mm. Finally, the simulation results of the brazing residual stress of polycrystalline CBN abrasive grits have been con?rmed valid based on the residual stress measurement of the brazed monocrystalline CBN grit.展开更多

The experimental results reveal that the depth of the hardened zone is proportional to the ratio of the moving speed of the piston rod to the output power of the induction generator. This result is proved correct through the Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation of the thermal field of induction heating.

The compressive strengths of brazed grains were measured. Morphology, chemical composition and phase component of the brazing resultant around PCBN grain were also characterized. The results show that the maximum compressive strength of brazed grains is obtained in the case of brazing temperature of 965 °C, which does not decrease the original grain strength. Strong joining between Ag–Cu–Ti alloy and PCBN grains is dependent on the brazing resultants,such as TiB_2, TiN and AlTi_3, the formation mechanism of which is also discussed. Under the given experimental conditions, the optimum heating parameters were determined to be current magnitude of 24 A and scanning speed of0.5 mm/s. Finally, the brazing-induced residual tensile stress, which has a great influence on the grain fracture behavior in grinding, was determined through finite element analysis.展开更多

The ball milled powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction. Density measurements by the Archimedes method show that all sintered samples have the relative density higher than 95%. Studies on the effects of WC content, milling speed, and milling time indicate that a higher milling speed and a more WC content lead to the improvement of mechanical properties. There is a very good distribution of WC particles in the Fe matrix at the milling speed of 650 r/rain. For the sintered sample 20-5-650 (20wt% WC, milling time of 5 h, and milled speed of 650 r/min), the maximum Brinell hardness and yield stress are obtained to be 3.25 GPa and 858 MPa, respectively. All sintered samples have brittle fracture during compression test except the sample 20-5-650.展开更多

It examines the effects on their physiological and psychological responses and overall satisfaction with nursing care. Methods: A total of 84 patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were selected through convenient sampling and randomly assigned to either the control group or the intervention group using a random number table. Each group consisted of 42 patients. The control group received standard surgical nursing care. In addition to standard care, the intervention group received handshake and information support from the circulating nurse before anesthesia induction. Vital signs were recorded before surgery and before anesthesia induction. Anxiety levels were measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the State-Anxiety Inventory (S-AI), while nursing satisfaction was assessed using a numerical rating scale. Results: No significant differences were found between the two groups in systolic and diastolic blood pressures before surgery and anesthesia induction (P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference in heart rate before anesthesia induction (P Conclusion: Providing handshake and information support before anesthesia induction effectively reduces stress, alleviates anxiety, and enhances comfort and satisfaction among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.展开更多

In this paper, we propose a novel logging method for detection of high-resistance formations in OBM using highfrequency electrodes. The method addresses the issue of shallow depth of investigation(DOI) in existing electrical logging instruments, while simultaneously ensuring the vertical resolution. Based on the principle of current continuity, the total impedance of the loop is obtained by equating the measurement loop to the series form of a capacitively coupled circuit. and its validity is verified in a homogeneous formation model and a radial two-layer formation model with a mud standoff. Then, the instrument operating frequency and electrode system parameters were preferentially determined by numerical simulation, and the effect of mud gap on impedance measurement was investigated. Subsequently, the DOI of the instrument was investigated utilizing the pseudo-geometric factor defined by the real part of impedance. It was determined that the detection depth of the instrument is 8.74 cm, while the effective vertical resolution was not less than 2 cm. Finally, a focused high-frequency electrode-type instrument was designed by introducing a pair of focused electrodes, which effectively enhanced the DOI of the instrument and was successfully deployed in the Oklahoma formation model. The simulation results demonstrate that the novel method can achieve a detection depth of 17.40 cm in highly-resistive formations drilling with OBM, which is approximately twice the depth of detection of the existing oil-based mud microimager instruments. Furthermore, its effective vertical resolution remains at or above 2 cm,which is comparable to the resolution of the existing OBM electrical logging instrument.展开更多

文摘Kidney transplantation(KT)accounts for nearly three-fourths of organ transplants in India,with living donors contributing to 82%of cases.Induction immunosuppression is essential to optimize initial immunosuppression,reduce acute rejections,and enable tailored use of maintenance agents.Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin(rATG)and interleukin-2 receptor anatagonists(IL-2RA/IL-2RBs)are the most widely used induction therapies.However,data on induction practices across India are limited.To evaluate induction immunosuppression practices across KT centers in India and establish a consensus for different subsets of KT recipients.A nationwide online survey was conducted by the Indian Society of Organ Transplantation(ISOT)among its members(400 KT centers).Responses were analyzed to assess induction practices across diverse donor types,age groups,and immunological risk profiles.Heterogeneity in practices prompted consensus building using a modified Delphi process.Literature review and expert panel discussions(April 2024)were followed by structured voting,and 16 consensus statements were finalized.Of 400 centers approached,254 participated.rATG was the most commonly used induction therapy,followed by IL-2RBs;alemtuzumab was least used.Significant heterogeneity was observed in type,dose,and duration of induction therapy.Consensus recommendations were framed:rATG for high immunological risk recipients and deceased donor KTs;IL-2RB or low-dose rATG for low immunological risk;rituximab in ABOincompatible KTs;and tailoring based on age,diabetes,donor type,infection risk,and affordability.This first ISOT consensus provides 16 India-specific statements on induction therapy in KT.It emphasizes risk-stratified,evidenceinformed,and context-appropriate induction strategies,supporting standardization of care across the country.

文摘The hyperloop idea,which is one of the most ecofriendly,low-carbon emissions,and fossil fuel-efficient modes of transportation,has recently become quite popular.In this study,a double-sided linear induction motor(LIM)with 500 W of output power,60 N of thrust force and 200 V/38.58 Hz of supply voltage was designed to be used in hyperloop development competition hosted by the scientific and technological research council of turkey(TüB?TAK)rail transportation technologies institute(RUTE).In contrast to the studies in the literature,concentrated winding is preferred instead of distributed winding due to mechanical constraints.The electromagnetic design of LIM,whose mechanical and electrical requirements were determined considering the hyperloop development competition,was carried out by following certain steps.Then,the designed model was simulated and analyzed by finite element method(FEM),and the necessary optimizations have been performed to improve the motor characteristics.By examining the final model,the applicability of the concentrated winding type LIM for hyperloop technology has been investigated.Besides,the effects of primary material,railway material,and mechanical air-gap length on LIM performance were also investigated.In the practical phase of the study,the designed LIM has been prototyped and tested.The validation of the experimental results was achieved through good agreement with the finite element analysis results.
文摘As one of the most important industrially viable methods for carbon dioxide(CO_(2))utilization,methanol synthesis serves as a platform for production of green fuels and commodity chemicals.For sustainable methanol synthesis,In_(2)O_(3)is an ideal catalyst and has garnered significant attention.Herein,cubic In_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles were prepared via the precipitation method and evaluated for CO_(2)hydrogenation to produce methanol.During the initial 10 h of reaction,CO_(2)conversion gradually increased,accompanied by a slow decrease of methanol selectivity,and the reaction reached equilibrium after 10-20 h on stream.This activation and induction stage may be attributed to the sintering of In_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles and the creation of more oxygen vacancies on In_(2)O_(3)surfaces.Further experimental studies demonstrate that hydrogen induction created additional oxygen vacancies during the catalyst activation stage,enhancing the performance of In_(2)O_(3)catalyst for CO_(2)hydrogenation.Density functional theory calculations and microkinetic simulations further demonstrated that surfaces with higher oxygen vacancy coverages or hydroxylated surfaces formed during this induction period can enhance the reaction rate and increase the CO_(2)conversion.However,they predominantly promote the formation of CO instead of methanol,leading to reduced methanol selectivity.These predictions align well with the above-mentioned experimental observations.Our work thus provides an in-depth analysis of the induction stage of the CO_(2)hydrogenation process on In_(2)O_(3)nano-catalyst,and offers valuable insights for significantly improving the CO_(2)reactivity of In_(2)O_(3)-based catalysts while maintaining long-term stability.
文摘Objective: This study evaluates the impact of handshake and information support on patients’ outcomes during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It examines the effects on their physiological and psychological responses and overall satisfaction with nursing care. Methods: A total of 84 patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were selected through convenient sampling and randomly assigned to either the control group or the intervention group using a random number table. Each group consisted of 42 patients. The control group received standard surgical nursing care. In addition to standard care, the intervention group received handshake and information support from the circulating nurse before anesthesia induction. Vital signs were recorded before surgery and before anesthesia induction. Anxiety levels were measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the State-Anxiety Inventory (S-AI), while nursing satisfaction was assessed using a numerical rating scale. Results: No significant differences were found between the two groups in systolic and diastolic blood pressures before surgery and anesthesia induction (P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference in heart rate before anesthesia induction (P Conclusion: Providing handshake and information support before anesthesia induction effectively reduces stress, alleviates anxiety, and enhances comfort and satisfaction among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

文摘The oil-based mud(OBM) borehole measurement environment presents significant limitations on the application of existing electrical logging instruments in high-resistance formations. In this paper, we propose a novel logging method for detection of high-resistance formations in OBM using highfrequency electrodes. The method addresses the issue of shallow depth of investigation(DOI) in existing electrical logging instruments, while simultaneously ensuring the vertical resolution. Based on the principle of current continuity, the total impedance of the loop is obtained by equating the measurement loop to the series form of a capacitively coupled circuit. and its validity is verified in a homogeneous formation model and a radial two-layer formation model with a mud standoff. Then, the instrument operating frequency and electrode system parameters were preferentially determined by numerical simulation, and the effect of mud gap on impedance measurement was investigated. Subsequently, the DOI of the instrument was investigated utilizing the pseudo-geometric factor defined by the real part of impedance. It was determined that the detection depth of the instrument is 8.74 cm, while the effective vertical resolution was not less than 2 cm. Finally, a focused high-frequency electrode-type instrument was designed by introducing a pair of focused electrodes, which effectively enhanced the DOI of the instrument and was successfully deployed in the Oklahoma formation model. The simulation results demonstrate that the novel method can achieve a detection depth of 17.40 cm in highly-resistive formations drilling with OBM, which is approximately twice the depth of detection of the existing oil-based mud microimager instruments. Furthermore, its effective vertical resolution remains at or above 2 cm,which is comparable to the resolution of the existing OBM electrical logging instrument.
文摘Objective:To analyze the significance of high-frequency ultrasound in differentiating benign and malignant breast micronodules.Methods:Eighty-five patients with breast micronodules admitted for diagnosis between October 2022 and October 2024 were selected for high-frequency ultrasound diagnosis.The diagnostic efficacy of high-frequency ultrasound was evaluated by comparing it with the results of surgical pathology.Results:High-frequency ultrasound detected 50 benign nodules,primarily breast fibroadenomas,and 35 malignant nodules,mainly breast ductal carcinoma in situ.Based on surgical pathology results,the diagnostic accuracy of high-frequency ultrasound was 96.47%,specificity was 97.96%,and sensitivity was 94.44%.In high-frequency ultrasound diagnosis,the proportion of grade III and IV blood flow in malignant nodules was higher than that in benign nodules,while the proportion of regular shape and clear margins was lower.The proportion of microcalcifications and posterior echo attenuation was higher in malignant nodules,and the resistance index(RI)and peak blood flow velocity were lower than those in benign nodules(P<0.05).Conclusion:High-frequency ultrasound can effectively differentiate benign and malignant breast micronodules,determine specific nodule types,and exhibits high diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity.Additionally,benign and malignant nodules can be differentiated based on the grading of blood flow signals,sonographic features,and blood flow velocity,providing reasonable guidance for subsequent treatment plans.

文摘China has a long history of coal mining,among which open-pit coal mines have a large number of small coal mine goafs underground.The distribution,shape,structure and other characteristics of goafs are isolated and discontinuous,and there is no definite geological law to follow,which seriously threatens the safety of coal mine production and personnel life.Conventional ground geophysical methods have low accuracy in detecting goaf areas affected by mechanical interference from open-pit mines,especially for waterless goaf areas,which cannot be detected by existing methods.This article proposes the use of high-frequency electromagnetic waves for goaf detection.The feasibility of using drilling radar to detect goaf was theoretically analyzed,and a goaf detection model was established.The response characteristics of different fillers in the goaf under different frequencies of high-frequency electromagnetic waves were simulated and analyzed.In a certain open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia,100MHz high-frequency electromagnetic waves were used to detect the goaf through directional drilling on the ground.After detection,excavation verification was carried out,and the location of one goaf detected was verified.The results of engineering practice show that the application of high-frequency electromagnetic waves in goaf detection expands the detection radius of boreholes,has the advantages of high efficiency and accuracy,and has important theoretical and practical significance.

文摘Single-shot ultrafast compressed imaging(UCI)is an effective tool for studying ultrafast dynamics in physics,chemistry,or material science because of its excellent high frame rate and large frame number.However,the random code(Rcode)used in traditional UCI will lead to low-frequency noise covering high-frequency information due to its uneven sampling interval,which is a great challenge in the fidelity of large-frame reconstruction.Here,a high-frequency enhanced compressed active photography(H-CAP)is proposed.By uniformizing the sampling interval of R-code,H-CAP capture the ultrafast process with a random uniform sampling mode.This sampling mode makes the high-frequency sampling energy dominant,which greatly suppresses the low-frequency noise blurring caused by R-code and achieves high-frequency information of image enhanced.The superior dynamic performance and large-frame reconstruction ability of H-CAP are verified by imaging optical self-focusing effect and static object,respectively.We applied H-CAP to the spatial-temporal characterization of double-pulse induced silicon surface ablation dynamics,which is performed within 220 frames in a single-shot of 300 ps.H-CAP provides a high-fidelity imaging method for observing ultrafast unrepeatable dynamic processes with large frames.
文摘Objective:To analyze the therapeutic effect of high-frequency electrosurgical knife surgery guided by painless digestive endoscopy(PDE)in elderly patients with gastrointestinal polyps(GP).Methods:A total of 100 elderly GP patients admitted between June 2021 and December 2022 were selected.Patients were randomly divided into two groups:the painless group(50 cases)underwent high-frequency electrosurgical knife surgery guided by PDE,while the conventional group(50 cases)underwent the same surgery guided by traditional digestive endoscopy(DE).The total treatment efficacy,perioperative indicators,gastrointestinal hormone levels,oxidative stress(OS)markers,and complication rates were compared between the two groups.Results:The total treatment efficacy in the painless group was higher than that in the conventional group,and perioperative indicators were superior in the painless group(P<0.05).One week after treatment,the gastrointestinal hormone levels and OS-related markers in the painless group were better than those in the conventional group(P<0.05).The complication rate in the painless group was lower than in the conventional group(P<0.05).Conclusion:High-frequency electrosurgical knife surgery guided by PDE improves the effectiveness of polyp removal in elderly GP patients and accelerates postoperative recovery.It also protects gastrointestinal function,reduces postoperative OS,and ensures higher surgical safety.
