Therefore, it is difficult for the valve to match the control precision of basis weight. Dynamic simulation research using Matlab/Simulink indicates that there is much more overshoot and fluctuating during the valve-positioning process. In order to improve the valve-positioning precision, the control method of trapezoidal velocity curve was studied. The simulation result showed that the positioning steady-state error was less than 0.0056%, whereas the peak error was less than 0.016% by using trapezoidal velocity curve at 10 positioning steps. A valve-positioning precision experimental device for the stepper motor of basis weight control valve was developed. The experiment results showed that the error ratio of 1/10000 positioning steps was 4% by using trapezoidal velocity curve. Furthermore, the error ratio of 10/10000 positioning steps was 0.5%. It proved that the valve-positioning precision of trapezoidal velocity curve was much higher than that of the constant frequency pulse signal control strategy. The new control method of trapezoidal velocity curve can satisfy the precision requirement of 10000 steps.展开更多

The reference satellite selection methods based on elevation and positional dilution of precision (PDOP) value were compared. Results show that all the above methods cannot select the optimal reference satellite. We introduce condition number of the design matrix in the reference satellite selection method to improve structure of the normal equation, because condition number can indicate the ill condition of the normal equation. The experimental results show that the new method can improve positioning accuracy and reliability in precise relative positioning.展开更多

Thi...Objective: The present research aims to determine if adherence to the Lewinnek safe zone, when exclusively considered, constitutes a pivotal element for ensuring stability in the context of total hip arthroplasty. This is done by examining the acetabular placement in instances of hip dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methodology: The authors searched 2653 patient records from 2015 to 2022 looking for patients who had total hip arthroplasty at our facility. For the analysis, 23 patients were culled from 64 individuals who exhibited post-THA dislocations, employing a stringent exclusion criterion, and the resultant acetabular angulation and anteversion were quantified utilizing PEEKMED software (Peek Health S.A., Portugal) upon radiographic evidence. Results: Within the operational timeframe, from the cohort of 2653 subjects, 64 presented with at least a singular incident of displacement. Post-exclusion criterion enforcement, 23 patients were eligible for inclusion. Of these, 10 patients conformed to the safe zone demarcated by Lewinnek for both inclination and anteversion angles, while 13 exhibited deviations from the prescribed anteversion and/or inclination benchmarks. Conclusion: Analysis of the 23 patients reveals that 13 did not confirm to be in the safe zone parameters for anteversion and/or inclination, whereas 10 were within the safe zone as per Lewinnek’s guidelines. This investigative review, corroborated by extant literature, suggests that the isolated consideration of the Lewinnek safe zone does not suffice as a solitary protective factor. It further posits that additional variables are equally critical as acetabular positioning and mandate individual assessment.展开更多

文摘The accuracy of spot centroid positioning has a significant impact on the tracking accuracy of the system and the stability of the laser link construction.In satellite laser communication systems,the use of short-wave infrared wavelengths as beacon light can reduce atmospheric absorption and signal attenuation.However,there are strong non-uniformity and blind pixels in the short-wave infrared image,which makes the image distorted and leads to the decrease of spot centroid positioning accuracy.Therefore,the high-precision localization of the spot centroid of the short-wave infrared images is of great research significance.A high-precision spot centroid positioning model for short-wave infrared is proposed to correct for non-uniformity and blind pixels in short-wave infrared images and quantify the localization errors caused by the two,further model-based localization error simulations are performed,and a novel spot centroid positioning payload for satellite laser communications has been designed using the latest 640×512 planar array InGaAs shortwave infrared detector.The experimental results show that the non-uniformity of the corrected image is reduced from 7%to 0.6%,the blind pixels rejection rate reaches 100%,the frame rate can be up to 2000 Hz,and the spot centroid localization accuracy is as high as 0.1 pixel point,which realizes high-precision spot centroid localization of high-frame-frequency short-wave infrared images.
文摘Background:Pressure injury(PI)is a prevalent complication in pediatric cardiac surgery,with higher incidence than in general pediatric populations due to children’s thin skin,underdeveloped subcutaneous tissue,and prolonged intraoperative pressure.Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of the curvilinear supine position(CSP)in preventing PI among children undergoing congenital heart disease(CHD)surgery.Methods:Between October 2024 and February 2025,a single-center randomized controlled trial was conducted.Of the 80 children initially enrolled for congenital heart disease(CHD)surgery,77(aged 1 month to 14 years)completed the study and were included in the final analysis after 3 were excluded due to protocol violations.Participants were randomly assigned to the CSP group(n=38)or the conventional supine position group(n=39).Results:The incidence of PI was significantly lower in the CSP group(2.6%)compared to the control group(20.5%)(p=0.029).Postoperative LDH levels were also significantly reduced in the CSP group(422.67±86.52 U/L vs.592.92±215.71 U/L;p=0.031),while preoperative LDH and surgical variables(e.g.,cardiopulmonary bypass time)were comparable between groups.Although the CSP group had a shorter hospital stay(17.24 vs.22.51 days),the difference was not statistically significant(p=0.085).Caregiver satisfaction was significantly higher in the CSP group(100.0%vs.84.6%;p=0.025).Conclusion:CSP effectively reduces PI incidence,mitigates tissue injury,and enhances caregiver satisfaction in pediatric cardiac surgery,offering a safe and feasible strategy for perioperative PI prevention.

文摘AIM:To evaluate and compare alterations in the effective lens position(ELP)and refractive outcomes among three distinct intraocular lens(IOL)types.METHODS:Patients with cataracts were enrolled and allocated to 3 groups:Group A(implanted with the SN6CWS),Group B(implanted with the MI60),and Group C(implanted with the Aspira-aA).ELP measurements were obtained with swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)at 1d,1wk,1mo,and 3mo postoperatively.Subjective refraction assessments were conducted at 1wk,1mo,and 3mo following surgery.RESULTS:The study included 189 eyes of 150 cataract patients(66 males).There were 77 eyes in Group A,55 eyes in Group B,and 57 eyes in Group C.The root mean square of the ELP(ELPRMS)within the initial 3mo was significantly lower for Group A than for Groups B and C.Refractive changes within Group A were not significant across the time points of 1wk,1mo,and 3mo.Conversely,both Group B and Group C demonstrated statistically significant shifts toward hyperopia from 1wk to 3mo postsurgery.CONCLUSION:Among the three IOLs examined,the SN6CWS IOL showes the greatest stability during the first 3mo postoperatively.Between 1wk and 3mo after surgery,notable hyperopic shifts are evident in eyes implanted with the MI60 and Aspira-aA IOLs,whereas refractive outcomes remain relatively constant in eyes implanted with SN6CWS IOLs.

文摘The high-quality assembly of Large Aircraft Components(LACs)is essential in modern aviation manufacturing.Numerical control locators are employed for the posture adjustment of LAC,yet the system's multi-input multi-output,nonlinearity,and strong coupling presents significant challenges.The substantial internal force generated during the adjustment process can potentially damage the LAC and degrade the assembly quality.Hence,a workspace-based hybrid force position control scheme was developed to achieve high quality assembly with high-precision and lower internal force.Firstly,an offline workspace analysis with inherent geometric characteristics to form time-varying posture error constraint.Then,the posture error is integrated into the online position axis control to ensure tracking the ideal posture,while the force control axis compensates for posture deviation by minimizing internal force,thereby achieving high precision and low internal force.Finally,the effectiveness was demonstrated through experiments.The root mean square errors of orientation and position are 104 rad and 0.1 mm,respectively.A reduction in internal force can range from 10.96%to 57.4%compared to the traditional method.Key points'max position error is decreased from 0.32 mm to 0.18 mm,satisfying the 0.5 mm tolerance.Therefore,the proposed method will help promote the development of high-performance manufacturing.

文摘The fluorination strategy has been proven effective in significantly enhancing the photovoltaic performance of organic solar cells(OSCs) based on non-fused ring electron acceptors(NFREAs).However,research on the impact of fluorination positions at side chains on NFREAs device performance remains scant.In this study,we introduce two isomeric NFREAs,designated as GA-2F-E and GA-2F,distinguished by their fluorination positions at the side chains.Both NFREAs share a thiophene[3,2-b]thiophene core,but their side chains differ:GA-2F-E features two(4-butylphenyl)-N-(4-fluorophenyl) amino groups,whereas GA-2F's side chains consist of bis(4-fluorophenyl)amino and bis(4-butylphenyl)amino groups attached to opposite sides of the core.To delve into the influence of fluorination positions on the optoelectronic properties,aggregation behavior,and overall efficiency of the acceptor molecules,a comprehensive investigation was conducted.The findings reveal that,despite similar photophysical properties and comparable absorption bandwidths,GA-2F-E,with fluorine atoms positioned on both sides of the molecular framework,demonstrates more compact π-π stacking,reduced bimolecular recombination,superior exciton transport,and a more balanced,higher mobility.As a result of these advantages,OSCs optimized with D18:GA-2F-E achieve a remarkable power conversion efficiency(PCE) of 16.45 %,surpassing the 15.83 %PCE of devices utilizing D18:GA-2F.This research underscores the potential of NFREAs in future applications and highlights the significance of fluorination positions in enhancing OSC performance,paving the way for the development of more efficient NFREAs.

文摘Traditionally, basis weight control valve is driven by a constant frequency pulse signal. Therefore, it is difficult for the valve to match the control precision of basis weight. Dynamic simulation research using Matlab/Simulink indicates that there is much more overshoot and fluctuating during the valve-positioning process. In order to improve the valve-positioning precision, the control method of trapezoidal velocity curve was studied. The simulation result showed that the positioning steady-state error was less than 0.0056%, whereas the peak error was less than 0.016% by using trapezoidal velocity curve at 10 positioning steps. A valve-positioning precision experimental device for the stepper motor of basis weight control valve was developed. The experiment results showed that the error ratio of 1/10000 positioning steps was 4% by using trapezoidal velocity curve. Furthermore, the error ratio of 10/10000 positioning steps was 0.5%. It proved that the valve-positioning precision of trapezoidal velocity curve was much higher than that of the constant frequency pulse signal control strategy. The new control method of trapezoidal velocity curve can satisfy the precision requirement of 10000 steps.

文摘Selecting the optimal reference satellite is an important component of high-precision relat/ve positioning because the reference satellite directly influences the strength of the normal equation. The reference satellite selection methods based on elevation and positional dilution of precision (PDOP) value were compared. Results show that all the above methods cannot select the optimal reference satellite. We introduce condition number of the design matrix in the reference satellite selection method to improve structure of the normal equation, because condition number can indicate the ill condition of the normal equation. The experimental results show that the new method can improve positioning accuracy and reliability in precise relative positioning.

文摘Multi-sensor coordinate unification in dimensional metrology is used in order to get holistic, more accurate and reliable information about a workpiece based on several or multiple measurement values from one or more sensors. Because of the problem that standard ball is deficient as a standard artifact in the coordinate unification of high-precision composite measurement in two dimensions (2D) , a new method is proposed in this paper which uses angle gauge blocks as standard artifacts to achieve coordinate unification between the image sensor and the tactile probe. By comparing the standard ball with the angle gauge block as a standard artifact, theoretical analysis and experimental results are given to prove that it is more precise and more convenient to use angle gauge blocks as standard artifacts to achieve coordinate unification of high-precision composite measurement in two dimensions.

文摘Precise coseismic displacements in earthquake/tsunamic early warning are necessary to characterize earthquakes in real time in order to enable decision-makers to issue alerts for public safety.Real-time global navigation satellite systems(GNSSs)have been a valuable tool in monitoring seismic motions,allowing permanent displacement computation to be unambiguously achieved.As a valuable tool presented to the seismic commu nity,the GSeisRT software developed by Wuhan University(China)can realize multi-GNSS precise point positioning with ambiguity resolution(PPP-AR)and achieve centimeterlevel to sub-centimeter-level precision in real time.While the stable maintenance of a global precise point positioning(PPP)service is challenging,this software is capable of estimating satellite clocks and phase biases in real time using a regional GNSS network.This capability makes GSeisRT especially suitable for proprietary GNSS networks and,more importantly,the highest possible positio ning precision and reliability can be obtained.According to real-time results from the Network of the Americas,the mean root mean square(RMS)errors of kinematic PPP-AR over a 24 h span are as low as 1.2,1.3,and 3.0 cm in the east,north,and up components,respectively.Within the few minutes that span a typical seismic event,a horizontal displacement precision of 4 mm can be achieved.The positioning precision of the GSeisRT regional PPP/PPP-AR is 30%-40%higher than that of the global PPP/PPP-AR.Since 2019,GSeisRT has successfully recorded the static,dynamic,and peak ground displacements for the 2020Oaxaca,Mexico moment magnitude(Mw)7.4 event;the 2020 Lone Pine,California Mw 5.8 event;and the 2021 Qinghai,China Mw 7.3 event in real time.The resulting immediate magnitude estimates have an error of around 0.1 only.The GSeisRT software is open to the scientific community and has been applied by the China Earthquake Ne tworks Center,the EarthScope Consortium of the United States,the National Seismological Center of Chile,Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences Limited(GNS Science Te PūAo)of New Zealand,and the Geospatial Information Agency of Indonesia.

文摘The intensified kernel position effect is a common phenomenon in maize production under higher plant density,which limits crop productivity.Subsoiling is an effective agronomic practice for improving crop productivity.To clarify the effect of subsoiling before winter wheat on the kernel position effect of densely grown summer maize and its regulatory mechanism,field experiments were conducted during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 growing seasons using a split-plot design.The main plots included two tillage practices:conventional tillage practice(CT)and subsoiling before the sowing of winter wheat(SS);and the subplots consisted of three plant densities(D1-D3 at 6.0×10~4,7.5×10~4,and 9.0×10~4 plants ha-1).Compared with CT,SS alleviated the kernel position effect by increasing the weight ratio of inferior to superior kernels(WR)in the D2 and D3 treated plants.The higher WR of SS treated plants contributed largely to the improved flling of inferior kernels.Under the same plant density,SS signifcantly improved the root dry matter accumulation(DMA)and antioxidant enzyme activities(superoxide dismutase(SOD)and peroxidase(POD)),and it reduced the malondialdehyde(MDA)content,especially for the plants grown under higher plant densities.These results indicated that SS delayed the root senescence,which is associated with the reduced soil bulk density.In addition,compared with CT,SS increased the leaf chlorophyll content from 20 days after silking to physiological maturity and the post-silking leaf area duration,and it reduced the post-silking leaf chlorophyll reduction rate and leaf area reduction rate,indicating that the post-silking leaf senescence had been alleviated.Under the same plant density,the post-silking DMA of SS was obviously higher than that of CT,which was probably related to the improved leaf area duration and photosynthetic enzyme activities(phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase(PEPC)and Rubisco).The correlation analysis revealed that the main mechanism of SS in alleviating the kernel position effect of densely grown summer maize is as follows:SS delays the post-silking root-shoot senescence by regulating soil physical properties,and further improves the post-silking DMA and flling of inferior kernels,which ultimately alleviates the kernel position effect and improves grain yield.The results of this study provide new theoretical support for the promotion of summer maize yield by subsoiling before winter wheat.

文摘A rock-drilling jumbo is the main piece of tunneling equipment used in the energy and infrastructure industries in various countries.The positioning accuracy of its drilling boom greatly affects tunneling efficiency and section-forming quality of mine roadways and engineering tunnels.In order to improve the drilling-positioning accuracy of a three-boom drilling jumbo,we established a kinematics model of the multi-degree-of-freedom(multi-DOF)multi-boom system,using the improved Denavit-Hartenberg(D-H)method,and obtained the mapping relationship between the end position and the amount of motion of each joint.The error of the inverse kinematics calculation for the drilling boom is estimated by an analytical method and a global search algorithm based on particle swarm optimization(PSO)for a straight blasting hole and an inclined blasting hole.On this basis,we propose a back-propagation(BP)neural network optimized by an improved sparrow search algorithm(ISSA)to predict the positioning error of the drilling booms of a three-boom drilling jumbo.In order to verify the accuracy of the proposed error compensation model,we built an automatic-control test platform for the boom,and carried out a positioning error compensation test on the boom.The results show that the average drilling-positioning error was reduced from 9.79 to 5.92 cm,and the error was reduced by 39.5%.Therefore,the proposed method effectively reduces the positioning error of the drilling boom,and improves the accuracy and efficiency of rock drilling.

文摘Zenith Tropospheric Delay(ZTD)is an important factor that restricts the high-precision positioning of global navigation satellite system(GNSS),and it is of great significance in establishing a real-time and highprecision ZTD model.However,existing ZTD models only consider the impact of linear terms on ZTD estimation,whereas the nonlinear factors have rarely been investigated before and thus become the focus of this study.A real-time and high-precision ZTD model for large height difference area is proposed by considering the linear and nonlinear characteristics of ZTD spatiotemporal variations and is called the realtime linear and nonlinearity ZTD(RLNZ)model.This model uses the ZTD estimated from the Global Pressure and Temperature 3(GPT3)model as the initial value.The linear impacts of periodic term and height on the estimation of ZTD difference between GNSS and GPT3 model are first considered.In addition,nonlinear factors such as geographical location and time are further used to fit the remaining nonlinear ZTD residuals using the general regression neural network method.Finally,the RLNZ-derived ZTD is obtained at an arbitrary location.The western United States,with height difference ranging from-500 to 4000 m,is selected,and the hourly ZTD of 484 GNSS stations provided by the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory(NGL)and the data of 9 radiosonde(RS)stations in the year 2021 are used.Experiment results show that a better performance of ZTD estimation can be retrieved from the proposed RLNZ model when compared with the GPT3 model.Statistical results show the averaged root mean square(RMS),Bias,and mean absolute error(MAE)of ZTD from GPT3 and RLNZ models are 33.7/0.8/25.7 mm and 22.6/0.1/17.4 mm,respectively.The average improvement rate of the RLNZ model is 33% when compared to the GPT3 model.Finally,the application of the proposed RLNZ model in simulated real-time Precise Point Positioning(PPP)indicates that the accuracy of PPP in N,E and U components is improved by 8%,2%,and 6% when compared with that from the GPT3-based PPP.Meanwhile,the convergence time in N and U components is improved by 23% and 7%,respectively.Such results verify the superiority of the proposed RLNZ model in retrieving realtime ZTD maps for GNSS positioning and navigation applications.

文摘For multi-vehicle networks,Cooperative Positioning(CP)technique has become a promising way to enhance vehicle positioning accuracy.Especially,the CP performance could be further improved by introducing Sensor-Rich Vehicles(SRVs)into CP networks,which is called SRV-aided CP.However,the CP system may split into several sub-clusters that cannot be connected with each other in dense urban environments,in which the sub-clusters with few SRVs will suffer from degradation of CP performance.Since Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)have been widely used to aid vehicular communications,we intend to utilize UAVs to assist sub-clusters in CP.In this paper,a UAV-aided CP network is constructed to fully utilize information from SRVs.First,the inter-node connection structure among the UAV and vehicles is designed to share available information from SRVs.After that,the clustering optimization strategy is proposed,in which the UAV cooperates with the high-precision sub-cluster to obtain available information from SRVs,and then broadcasts this positioning-related information to other low-precision sub-clusters.Finally,the Locally-Centralized Factor Graph Optimization(LC-FGO)algorithm is designed to fuse positioning information from cooperators.Simulation results indicate that the positioning accuracy of the CP system could be improved by fully utilizing positioning-related information from SRVs.

文摘Lunar Laser Ranging has extremely high requirements for the pointing accuracy of the telescopes used.To improve its pointing accuracy and solve the problem of insufficiently accurate telescope pointing correction achieved by tracking stars in the all-sky region,we propose a processing scheme to select larger-sized lunar craters near the Lunar Corner Cube Retroreflector as reference features for telescope pointing bias computation.Accurately determining the position of the craters in the images is crucial for calculating the pointing bias;therefore,we propose a method for accurately calculating the crater position based on lunar surface feature matching.This method uses matched feature points obtained from image feature matching,using a deep learning method to solve the image transformation matrix.The known position of a crater in a reference image is mapped using this matrix to calculate the crater position in the target image.We validate this method using craters near the Lunar Corner Cube Retroreflectors of Apollo 15 and Luna 17 and find that the calculated position of a crater on the target image falls on the center of the crater,even for image features with large distortion near the lunar limb.The maximum image matching error is approximately 1″,and the minimum is only 0.47″,which meets the pointing requirements of Lunar Laser Ranging.This method provides a new technical means for the high-precision pointing bias calculation of the Lunar Laser Ranging system.

文摘The existing Low-Earth-Orbit(LEO)positioning performance cannot meet the requirements of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)clusters for high-precision real-time positioning in the Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)denial conditions.Therefore,this paper proposes a UAV Clusters Information Geometry Fusion Positioning(UC-IGFP)method using pseudoranges from the LEO satellites.A novel graph model for linking and computing between the UAV clusters and LEO satellites was established.By utilizing probability to describe the positional states of UAVs and sensor errors,the distributed multivariate Probability Fusion Cooperative Positioning(PF-CP)algorithm is proposed to achieve high-precision cooperative positioning and integration of the cluster.Criteria to select the centroid of the cluster were set.A new Kalman filter algorithm that is suitable for UAV clusters was designed based on the global benchmark and Riemann information geometry theory,which overcomes the discontinuity problem caused by the change of cluster centroids.Finally,the UC-IGFP method achieves the LEO continuous highprecision positioning of UAV clusters.The proposed method effectively addresses the positioning challenges caused by the strong direction of signal beams from LEO satellites and the insufficient constraint quantity of information sources at the edge nodes of the cluster.It significantly improves the accuracy and reliability of LEO-UAV cluster positioning.The results of comprehensive simulation experiments show that the proposed method has a 30.5%improvement in performance over the mainstream positioning methods,with a positioning error of 14.267 m.
文摘Objective: The present research aims to determine if adherence to the Lewinnek safe zone, when exclusively considered, constitutes a pivotal element for ensuring stability in the context of total hip arthroplasty. This is done by examining the acetabular placement in instances of hip dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methodology: The authors searched 2653 patient records from 2015 to 2022 looking for patients who had total hip arthroplasty at our facility. For the analysis, 23 patients were culled from 64 individuals who exhibited post-THA dislocations, employing a stringent exclusion criterion, and the resultant acetabular angulation and anteversion were quantified utilizing PEEKMED software (Peek Health S.A., Portugal) upon radiographic evidence. Results: Within the operational timeframe, from the cohort of 2653 subjects, 64 presented with at least a singular incident of displacement. Post-exclusion criterion enforcement, 23 patients were eligible for inclusion. Of these, 10 patients conformed to the safe zone demarcated by Lewinnek for both inclination and anteversion angles, while 13 exhibited deviations from the prescribed anteversion and/or inclination benchmarks. Conclusion: Analysis of the 23 patients reveals that 13 did not confirm to be in the safe zone parameters for anteversion and/or inclination, whereas 10 were within the safe zone as per Lewinnek’s guidelines. This investigative review, corroborated by extant literature, suggests that the isolated consideration of the Lewinnek safe zone does not suffice as a solitary protective factor. It further posits that additional variables are equally critical as acetabular positioning and mandate individual assessment.

文摘Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy(SERS)has evolved from a laboratory technique to a practical tool for ultra-sensitive detection,particularly in the biomedical field,where precise molecular identification is crucial.Despite significant advancements,a gap remains in the literature,as no comprehensive review systematically addresses the high-precision construction of SERS substrates for ultrasensitive biomedical detection.This review fills that gap by exploring recent progress in fabricating high-precision SERS substrates,emphasizing their role in enabling ultrasensitive bio-medical sensors.We carefully examine the key to these advancements is the precision engineering of substrates,including noble metals,semiconductors,carbon-based materials,and two-dimensional materials,which is essential for achieving the high sensitivity required for ultrasensitive detection.Applications in biomedical diagnostics and molecular analysis are highlighted.Finally,we address the challenges in SERS substrate preparation and outline future directions,focusing on improvement strategies,design concepts,and expanding applications for these advanced materials.
