tumors.Intraoperative ultrasound and indocyanine green fluorescence navigation are the most commonly used methods at present,but the technical barriers limit their promotion.AIM To evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.METHODS From September 2020 to January 2022,8 patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocar-cinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis were included in this study.All patients underwent 3D-LAST in precise resection of liver tumors.RESULTS All patients(8/8,100%)underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.CONCLUSION In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraop-erative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.Core Tip:The aim of this study is to evaluate the value of the three-dimensional location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST)in precise resection of liver tumors.Eight patients with liver tumors including hepatocellular carcinoma,intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and gastric cancer liver metastasis underwent the operation successfully without any complications.During the mean follow-up of 8.7 months,all patients survived without tumor recurrence.In conclusion,the 3D-LAST is a safe and effective new method for liver intraoperative navigation,which is practical and easy to promote.INTRODUCTION Hepatectomy is widely used for the treatment of liver tumors.In recent decades,the concept and practice of hepatectomy have developed from irregular,regular and anatomical to the current precise resection.Necessary assistive technologies have enabled these advances.Intraoperative ultrasound(IOUS)localization and indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence imaging guidance are two frequently-used approaches for laparoscopic hepatectomy[1,2].IOUS is an invaluable auxiliary means widely accepted in surgery for real-time diagnostic information to determine resection range and navigate the surgical path[3].However,the major limitation of IOUS is the time cost during the procedure for paging the sono-graphers and the difficulty of deciphering two dimensional images[4].ICG is a non-toxic water-soluble fluorophore that reveals fluorescence under the near-infrared spectrum[5].Since liver tissue penetration is limited to 5 to 10 mm,that restricted the visualization of deeper tumors by ICG excitation,thereby interfering with its application in laparoscopic hepatectomy[6].IOUS and ICG navigation require specific technical equipment,making implementation difficult in many centers.And these techniques will significantly increase the operation time.Three-dimensional(3D)visualization involves extracting features and producing volumetric images based on computed tomography(CT)through a computer postprocessing technique.This tool offers a reasonable approach to the clinical decision for the potential to display the complex internal anatomy in an intuitive and stereoscopic manner[7].In the past few decades,applying 3D simulation software for liver volume calculation,virtual simulation surgery,portal hypertension monitor,and surgical navigation has proven to be safe and effective[8].Therefore,we propose a new method to find obvious anatomical markers and calculate the resection range according to 3D positioning before operation.During the operation,the scope of resection was delineated with silk thread,and resection was performed.This is a new practical approach,which we named as 3D location approach with silk thread(3D-LAST).RESULTS During the study period from September 2020 to January 2022,5 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma,1 patient with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,1 patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and 1 patient with gastric cancer liver metastasis were assessed for liver resection.There were 5 males and 3 females.The mean age of these patients was 54.3±10.2 years(34-66 years).Preoperative 3D positioning was conducted and the scope of resection was delineated with a surgical suture successfully performed in all 8 patients without complications.The treatment results of these 8 patients are shown in Table 1.The 90-day operative mortality was zero.Complications worse than Dindo-Clavien IIIa was not observed at a mean follow-up time of 8.7 months(4-16 months),there was no evidence of tumor recurrence or extrahepatic metastasis.At the time of reporting,the patients are all alive and lead normal lives.We take one patient as an example,58-year-old male,who found a liver lesion 10 months after gastric cancer surgery.Enhanced CT showed that the lesion was located in the liver S5,about 1.5 cm in diameter,and considered metastatic lesions.We performed 3D-LAST guided hepatectomy on this patient(Figure 1).Other representative 3D-LAST surgical procedures are shown in Figure 2.展开更多

The present study aimed to investigate and evaluate laser cleaning of the corroded metal embroidery, revealing the chemical composition of the corrosion and prop and evaluating the effects of laser cleaning on the surface of the metal threads. It utilized SEM and LM to provide morphological information about the surface and the cleaning effect. Moreover, SEM-EDX was used to define the elemental composition, and XRD was employed to offer information on the metal. The restoration of cultural heritage depends on defining the devastating changes to the man-made pieces. It compares pre-and post-restoration conditions of the object (e.g. painting, photography, and material analysis), controlling the conditions that are almost irrevocable. An Interval Digital Macro-photography is employed to control the corrosion PS tests for a long period of museum exhibition [1].展开更多

Through the analysis of the periodic stretching-uplifting background, it is concluded that five large scale paleo-rifts, three large scale paleo-uplifts, five large scale paleo erosion surfaces were formed in the marine craton stage of Sichuan Basin, and these geological units control the key reservoir forming factors of medium and large sized gas fields:(1) Large-scale paleo-rifts control the distribution of high-quality hydrocarbon generation centers.(2) The margin of large-scale paleo-rifts, high position of paleo-uplifts and paleo erosion surfaces control the distribution of high-quality reservoirs.(3) Large-scale paleo-rifts, paleo-uplifts, paleo erosion surfaces and present tectonic setting jointly control the formation of many types of large and medium-sized traps.(4) Natural gas accumulation is controlled by the inheritance evolution of traps in large geological units. Based on the comparative analysis of the distribution characteristics of medium-and large-sized gas fields and large geological units, it is proposed that the superimposition relationship between single or multiple geological units and the present structure controls the distribution of medium-and large-sized gas fields, and the "three paleo" superimposed area is the most advantageous. According to the above rules, the main exploration fields and directions of medium-and large-sized marine carbonate gas fields in Sichuan Basin include periphery of Deyang-Anyue paleo-rift, eastern margin of Longmenshan paleo-rift, margins of Kaijiang-Liangping oceanic trough and Chengkou-western Hubei oceanic trough, the high part of the subaqueous paleo-uplifts around Central Sichuan, paleo erosion surfaces of the top boundary of Maokou Formation in eastern and southern Sichuan Basin, paleo erosion surfaces of the top boundary of the Leikoupo Formation in central and western Sichuan Basin.展开更多

Therefore predicting the effects of technological parameters for production of castings on the thermal stress during solidification process becomes an important means. In this paper, the mathematical models have been established and numerical calculation of temperature fields by using finite difference method (FDM) and then thermal stress fields by using finite element method (FEM) during solidification process of castings have been carried out. The technological parameters of production have been optimized by the results of calculation and the defects of hot cracking have been eliminated. Modeling and simulation of 3D thermal stress during solidification processes of large-sized castings provided a scientific basis, which promoted further development of advanced manufacturing technique.展开更多

The Korea Institute of Co...Recently, research strives to apply Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) to large-sized structures owing to its remarkable mechanical performance and durability compared to normal concrete. The Korea Institute of Construction Technology proposed SuperBridge800, an edge girder type UHPC cable stayed bridge with central span of 800 m, through its detailed design. The bridge is designed to be erected through the connection of precast UHPC segments. The precast UHPC segment is monolithically composed of one ribbed deck slab and edge girders at each side. The connection between the precast segments is achieved by steel bars at the edge girders and by UHPC cast-in-place wet joint at the slab. Despite of the outstanding mechanical performance of UHPC, the fabrication of large-sized members is a difficult task since UHPC hardens faster than normal concrete and requires a special curing process. Therefore, the constructability of large-sized UHPC segment should be secured to achieve SuperBridge800. Besides, the performance of the connection between segments should also be guaranteed, especially in terms of the fatigue performance of the UHPC cast-in-place joint, which constitutes a weak point. To that goal, two half-scaled UHPC segments are manufactured and the constructability is examined by fabricating a large-sized UHPC member connected with respect to the design conditions. This study conducts rolling fatigue test on the so-fabricated large-sized UHPC member. Rolling fatigue test is carried out up to 2 million cycles considering actual vehicle load at each center and quarter points of the member. The test results confirm that the service limit state is satisfied.展开更多

The temperature variation and velocity effect is difficult to control. The extrusion forming of large-sized aluminum tube was researched and simulated. Three-dimensional thermo-mechanical coupled finite element model was constructed and appropriate boundary conditions were given out. The results show that large-sized aluminum tube can be formed by isothermal extrusion through controlling the extrusion velocity and founding the relationship between extrusion velocity and extrusion temperature.展开更多

文摘Birds in nature exhibit excellent long-distance flight capabilities through formation flight,which could reduce energy consumption and improve flight efficiency.Inspired by the biological habits of birds,this paper proposes an autonomous formation flight control method for Large-sized Flapping-Wing Flying Robots(LFWFRs),which can enhance their search range and flight efficiency.First,the kinematics model for LFWFRs is established.Then,an autonomous flight controller based on this model is designed,which has multiple flight control modes,including attitude stabilization,course keeping,hovering,and so on.Second,a formation flight control method is proposed based on the leader–follower strategy and periodic characteristics of flapping-wing flight.The up and down fluctuation of the fuselage of each LFWFR during wing flapping is considered in the control algorithm to keep the relative distance,which overcomes the trajectory divergence caused by sensor delay and fuselage fluctuation.Third,typical formation flight modes are realized,including straight formation,circular formation,and switching formation.Finally,the outdoor formation flight experiment is carried out,and the proposed autonomous formation flight control method is verified in real environment.
文摘When heavy machines and large scaled receiver system of communication equipment are manufactured, it always needs to produce large-sized steel castings, aluminum castings and etc. Some defects of hot cracking by thermal stress often appear during solidification process as these castings are produced, which results in failure of castings. Therefore predicting the effects of technological parameters for production of castings on the thermal stress during solidification process becomes an important means. In this paper, the mathematical models have been established and numerical calculation of temperature fields by using finite difference method (FDM) and then thermal stress fields by using finite element method (FEM) during solidification process of castings have been carried out. The technological parameters of production have been optimized by the results of calculation and the defects of hot cracking have been eliminated. Modeling and simulation of 3D thermal stress during solidification processes of large-sized castings provided a scientific basis, which promoted further development of advanced manufacturing technique.
文摘Recently, research strives to apply Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) to large-sized structures owing to its remarkable mechanical performance and durability compared to normal concrete. The Korea Institute of Construction Technology proposed SuperBridge800, an edge girder type UHPC cable stayed bridge with central span of 800 m, through its detailed design. The bridge is designed to be erected through the connection of precast UHPC segments. The precast UHPC segment is monolithically composed of one ribbed deck slab and edge girders at each side. The connection between the precast segments is achieved by steel bars at the edge girders and by UHPC cast-in-place wet joint at the slab. Despite of the outstanding mechanical performance of UHPC, the fabrication of large-sized members is a difficult task since UHPC hardens faster than normal concrete and requires a special curing process. Therefore, the constructability of large-sized UHPC segment should be secured to achieve SuperBridge800. Besides, the performance of the connection between segments should also be guaranteed, especially in terms of the fatigue performance of the UHPC cast-in-place joint, which constitutes a weak point. To that goal, two half-scaled UHPC segments are manufactured and the constructability is examined by fabricating a large-sized UHPC member connected with respect to the design conditions. This study conducts rolling fatigue test on the so-fabricated large-sized UHPC member. Rolling fatigue test is carried out up to 2 million cycles considering actual vehicle load at each center and quarter points of the member. The test results confirm that the service limit state is satisfied.
文摘Large-sized aluminum tube has big section effect, aspect ratio and thin thickness, so that the extrusion technology is complex and the large specific pressure is generated in extrusion cavity. The temperature variation and velocity effect is difficult to control. The extrusion forming of large-sized aluminum tube was researched and simulated. Three-dimensional thermo-mechanical coupled finite element model was constructed and appropriate boundary conditions were given out. The results show that large-sized aluminum tube can be formed by isothermal extrusion through controlling the extrusion velocity and founding the relationship between extrusion velocity and extrusion temperature.
