At the same time, callus JnductJon of stem segments was optimized, as well as the callus proliferation system. Research results showed that the optimal explant for callus induction was stem segment. The average callus induction rate of nine varieties reached 90% in culture medium MS + 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D. In the callus opti- mization test, treatment VI (MS + 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D + 0.5 mg/L KT + 0.5 mg/L NAA) and treatment II (MS + 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D) had close induction rate, but the callus morphology was greatly different. The latter had loose, glossy and yellowish white calluses. Therefore, culture medium MS + 0.5 mg/L 2, 4-D was the optimal for callus induction. And using 2, 4-D together with KT and NAA could significantly increase the proliferation rate of calluses.展开更多

In emergency self-propelled mode, however, the dc-link voltage and the traction power of the motor are significantly reduced, resulting in decreased traction efficiency due to the low load and low speed operations. Aiming to tackle this problem, a novel efficiency improved control method is introduced to the emergency mode of high-speed train traction system in this paper. In the proposed method, a total loss model of induction motor considering the behaviors of both iron and copper loss is established. An improved iterative algorithm with decreased computational burden is then introduced, resulting in a fast solving of the optimal flux reference for loss minimization at each control period. In addition, considering the parameter variation problem due to the low load and low speed operations, a parameter estimation method is integrated to improve the controller's robustness. The effectiveness of the proposed method on efficiency improvement at low voltage and low load conditions is demonstrated by simulated and experimental results.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

We firstly optimized the explants and culture conditions on callus induction, hormone concentrations and dark period of culture time on bud differentia-tions in particular, with sterilized seedlings to establish the regeneration system of R. multiflora. It showed that callus induction frequency reached 100% after the ex-plants being cultured in dark for 21 d when MS was chosen to be the initial culture medium. The bud differentiation rate was 48% after cal i being cultured under dark for 8 d on MS medium supplemented with TDZ (1.5 mg/L) and NAA (0.05 mg/L). The cal i was used as the explants that were infected with Agrobacterium tumefa-ciens harboring a DFR-RNAi construct. The transformation rate reached as high as 50%. The establishment of a highly efficient rose gene transformation system out-lined in this report is prerequisite for genetic improvement in rose flower colors.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Splenic artery aneurysm(SAA)rupture is a rare,life-threatening condition characterized by acute intra-abdominal hemorrhage and hemodynamic instability.Ruptured SAAs may exhibit a biphasic and relatively slow clinical progression,commonly referred to as the“double-rupture phenomenon”.The reported incidence of the double-rupture phenomenon ranges 12%-21%in patients with ruptured SAAs,potentially due to variations in intra-abdominal pressure.Following anesthesia induction,muscle relaxation can decrease intra-abdominal pressure,potentially triggering the double-rupture phenomenon and leading to circulatory collapse.CASE SUMMARY A 61-year-old female presented to the Department of Emergency with upper abdominal pain,abdominal distension,dizziness,and vomiting.Her vital signs were initially stable.Physical examination revealed abdominal tenderness and positive-shifting dullness.Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed cirrhosis,severe portal hypertension,and splenomegaly.Acute rupture was suggested by a hematoma on the upper left side outside the SAA.Surgeons deemed intravascular intervention challenging and open splenectomy inevitable.Circulatory collapse occurred after anesthesia induction,likely due to a double rupture of the SAA.This double-rupture phenomenon may have resulted from an initial rupture of the SAA into the omental bursa,forming a hematoma that exerted a tamponade effect.A second rupture into the peritoneal cavity may have been triggered by decreased intra-abdominal pressure following anesthesia induction.The patient’s life was saved through early,coordinated,multidisciplinary significant postoperative bleeding or hypoxic encephalopathy.CONCLUSION Anesthesia-induced pressure reduction may trigger a second SAA rupture,causing collapse.Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary teamwork improve outcomes.This is a rare and life-threatening case of SAA rupture,which is of great significance to the medical community for understanding and handling such emergencies.
文摘Wireless communications in extreme environments,such as underwater and underground,is an essential technology for interconnecting various devices and enables data transmission and networking.Existing wireless technologies using electromagnetic(EM)waves face many known problems,such as high path loss,unpredictable multi-path fading,and large antenna size in the lossy medium.In this article,the magnetic induction(MI)based physical layer communication is introduced as a promising solution for wireless transmissions in extreme environments.Specifically,the fundamentals of the MI-based communications are reviewed.Then,with the goal of establishing reliable and low-power links between small-size devices,we review several key physical layer technologies for MI-based communications,including the MIbased signal modulations,magnetic beamforming,and relay transmissions,and summarize their state-of-theart research advances.Finally,the related open issues and challenges in each area are analyzed and presented for future investigations.
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Quasi-solid-state composite electrolytes(QSCEs)show promise for high-performance solid-state batteries,while they still struggle with interfacial stability and cycling performance.Herein,a F-grafted QSCE(F-QSCE)was developed via copolymerizing the F monomers and ionic liquid monomers.The F-QSCE demonstrates better overall performance,such as high ionic conductivity of 1.21 mS cm^(-1)at 25℃,wide electrochemical windows of 5.20 V,and stable cycling stability for Li//Li symmetric cells over 4000 h.This is attributed to the significant electronegativity difference between C and F in the fluorinated chain(-CF_(2)-CF-CF_(3)),which causes the electron cloud to shift toward the F atom,surrounding it with a negative charge and producing the inductive effect.Furthermore,the interactions between Li^(+)and F,TFSI~-,and C are enhanced,reducing ion pair aggregation(Li^(+)-TFSI~--Li^(+))and promoting Li^(+)transport.Besides,-CF_(2)-CF-CF_(3)decomposes to form Li F preferentially over TFSI~-,resulting in better interfacial stability for F-QSCE.This work provides a pathway to enable the development of high-performance Li metal batteries.

文摘Within-Visual-Range(WVR)air combat is a highly dynamic and uncertain domain where effective strategies require intelligent and adaptive decision-making.Traditional approaches,including rule-based methods and conventional Reinforcement Learning(RL)algorithms,often focus on maximizing engagement outcomes through direct combat superiority.However,these methods overlook alternative tactics,such as inducing adversaries to crash,which can achieve decisive victories with lower risk and cost.This study proposes Alpha Crash,a novel distributional-rein forcement-learning-based agent specifically designed to defeat opponents by leveraging crash induction strategies.The approach integrates an improved QR-DQN framework to address uncertainties and adversarial tactics,incorporating advanced pilot experience into its reward functions.Extensive simulations reveal Alpha Crash's robust performance,achieving a 91.2%win rate across diverse scenarios by effectively guiding opponents into critical errors.Visualization and altitude analyses illustrate the agent's three-stage crash induction strategies that exploit adversaries'vulnerabilities.These findings underscore Alpha Crash's potential to enhance autonomous decision-making and strategic innovation in real-world air combat applications.

文摘To address the current issues with the conventional slide gate system utilized in the steel teeming process,a unique electromagnetic induction controlled automated steel teeming(EICAST)technology has been developed.Cooling means of spiral coil in this technology is directly related to its service life.Firstly,heat transfer processes of air cooling and spray cooling were compared and analyzed.Secondly,the impacts of water temperature,water flow rate and air flow rate were examined in order to maximize the spray cooling effect.To maintain coil temperature at a low value consistently throughout the entire thermal cycle process of the ladle,a combined cooling mode was finally employed.Numerical simulation was applied to examine the coil temperature variation with different cooling systems and characteristics.Before coil operation,spray cooling is said to be more effective.By controlling the water flow rate and air flow rate,the spray cooling effect is enhanced.However,water temperature has little or no impact when using spray cooling.Air cooling during the secondary refining process and spray cooling prior to coil operation are combined to further lower coil temperature.When the direction of the spray cooling is from bottom to top,the coil temperature is lowered below 165℃.A practical induction coil cooling plan was provided for the EICAST technology’s production process.

文摘With increasing the number of wind power generators,the consumption time of electromagnetic simulation of the wind farm explodes.To reduce the simulation time while meeting the accuracy requirement,a genetic clustering-based equivalent model is proposed for the wind farm with numerous doubly fed induction generators.In the proposed model,active power together with the reactive power and the wind speed are selected to form the set of clustering indicators.A normalization technique is utilized to cope with the multiple orders of magnitude in these factors.An exponential fitness value is formulated as a function of the sorting number of the primary fitness value,and the fitness-based selection probability is constructed to overcome the property of premature and slow convergence of the genetic clustering algorithm.The sum of squares due to error is used to determine the optimal clustering number.In addition,a decoupled parameter equivalence method is adopted to obtain the equivalent parameters of the collection network.Simulation results and comparisons with various methods under different voltage scenarios show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed model.

文摘An efficient genetic transformation system is a preparation for Rosa multi-flora Thunb. var. cathayensis Rehd. et Wils to diversify its flower color through ge-netic engineering. We firstly optimized the explants and culture conditions on callus induction, hormone concentrations and dark period of culture time on bud differentia-tions in particular, with sterilized seedlings to establish the regeneration system of R. multiflora. It showed that callus induction frequency reached 100% after the ex-plants being cultured in dark for 21 d when MS was chosen to be the initial culture medium. The bud differentiation rate was 48% after cal i being cultured under dark for 8 d on MS medium supplemented with TDZ (1.5 mg/L) and NAA (0.05 mg/L). The cal i was used as the explants that were infected with Agrobacterium tumefa-ciens harboring a DFR-RNAi construct. The transformation rate reached as high as 50%. The establishment of a highly efficient rose gene transformation system out-lined in this report is prerequisite for genetic improvement in rose flower colors.
