文摘At present,the emerging solid-phase friction-based additive manufacturing technology,including friction rolling additive man-ufacturing(FRAM),can only manufacture simple single-pass components.In this study,multi-layer multi-pass FRAM-deposited alumin-um alloy samples were successfully prepared using a non-shoulder tool head.The material flow behavior and microstructure of the over-lapped zone between adjacent layers and passes during multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition were studied using the hybrid 6061 and 5052 aluminum alloys.The results showed that a mechanical interlocking structure was formed between the adjacent layers and the adja-cent passes in the overlapped center area.Repeated friction and rolling of the tool head led to different degrees of lateral flow and plastic deformation of the materials in the overlapped zone,which made the recrystallization degree in the left and right edge zones of the over-lapped zone the highest,followed by the overlapped center zone and the non-overlapped zone.The tensile strength of the overlapped zone exceeded 90%of that of the single-pass deposition sample.It is proved that although there are uneven grooves on the surface of the over-lapping area during multi-layer and multi-pass deposition,they can be filled by the flow of materials during the deposition of the next lay-er,thus ensuring the dense microstructure and excellent mechanical properties of the overlapping area.The multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition overcomes the limitation of deposition width and lays the foundation for the future deposition of large-scale high-performance components.
文摘BACKGROUND Currently,very few studies have examined the analgesic effectiveness and safety of dexmedetomidine-assisted intravenous-inhalation combined general anesthesia in laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for inguinal hernia.AIM To investigate the analgesic effect and safety of dexmedetomidine-assisted intravenous-inhalation combined general anesthesia in laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for inguinal hernia.METHODS In this retrospective study,94 patients scheduled for laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for inguinal hernia,admitted to Yiwu Central Hospital between May 2022 and May 2023,were divided into a control group(inhalation combined general anesthesia)and a treatment group(dexmedetomidine-assisted intrave-nous-inhalation combined general anesthesia).Perioperative indicators,analgesic effect,preoperative and postoperative 24-hours blood pressure(BP)and heart rate(HR),stress indicators,immune function levels,and adverse reactions were com-pared between the two groups.RESULTS Baseline data,including age,hernia location,place of residence,weight,monthly income,education level,and underlying diseases,were not significantly different between the two groups,indicating comparability(P>0.05).No significant difference was found in operation time and anesthesia time between the two groups(P>0.05).However,the treatment group exhibited a shorter postoperative urinary catheter removal time and hospital stay than the control group(P<0.05).Preoperatively,no significant differences were found in the visual analog scale(VAS)scores between the two groups(P>0.05).However,at 12,18,and 24 hours postoper-atively,the treatment group had significantly lower VAS scores than the control group(P<0.05).Although no significant differences in preoperative hemodynamic indicators were found between the two groups(P>0.05),both groups experienced some extent of changes in postoperative HR,diastolic BP(DBP),and systolic BP(SBP).Nevertheless,the treatment group showed smaller changes in HR,DBP,and SBP than the control group(P<0.05).Preoperative immune function indicators showed no significant differences between the two groups(P>0.05).However,postoperatively,the treatment group demonstrated higher levels of CD3+,CD4+,and CD4+/CD8+and lower levels of CD8+than the control group(P<0.05).The rates of adverse reactions were 6.38%and 23.40%in the treatment and control groups,respectively,revealing a significant difference(χ2=5.371,P=0.020).CONCLUSION Dexmedetomidine-assisted intravenous-inhalation combined general anesthesia can promote early recovery of patients undergoing laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for inguinal hernia.It ensures stable blood flow,improves postoperative analgesic effects,reduces postoperative pain intensity,alleviates stress response,improves immune function,facilitates anesthesia recovery,and enhances safety.

文摘Prepulse combined hydraulic fracturing facilitates the development of fracture networks by integrating prepulse hydraulic loading with conventional hydraulic fracturing.The formation mechanisms of fracture networks between hydraulic and pre-existing fractures under different prepulse loading parameters remain unclear.This research investigates the impact of prepulse loading parameters,including the prepulse loading number ratio(C),prepulse loading stress ratio(S),and prepulse loading frequency(f),on the formation of fracture networks between hydraulic and pre-existing fractures,using both experimental and numerical methods.The results suggest that low prepulse loading stress ratios and high prepulse loading number ratios are advantageous loading modes.Multiple hydraulic fractures are generated in the specimen under the advantageous loading modes,facilitating the development of a complex fracture network.Fatigue damage occurs in the specimen at the prepulse loading stage.The high water pressure at the secondary conventional hydraulic fracturing promotes the growth of hydraulic fractures along the damage zones.This allows the hydraulic fractures to propagate deeply and interact with pre-existing fractures.Under advantageous loading conditions,multiple hydraulic fractures can extend to pre-existing fractures,and these hydraulic fractures penetrate or propagate along pre-existing fractures.Especially when the approach angle is large,the damage range in the specimen during the prepulse loading stage increases,resulting in the formation of more hydraulic fractures.

文摘With the continuous escalation of modern war,soldiers need to transport more combat materials to the combat area.The limited load-bearing capacity of soldiers seriously restricts their carrying capacity and mobility.It is urgent to develop a power-assisted exoskeleton robot suitable for individual combat.In the past,most power-assisted exoskeleton robots were driven by motors.This driving method has an excellent power-assisted effect,but the endurance is often insufficient.In view of this shortcoming,this study designed an ankle exoskeleton robot based on an active-passive combined drive through simulation analysis of human motion.It used OpenSim software to simulate and verify that the addition of spring could achieve a good effect.At the same time,according to the gait characteristics of the human body,the gait planning of an exoskeleton robot was carried out.Afterwards,theoretical analysis explained that the cooperation among spring,motor and wearer could be realized in this gait.Finally,the assisting ability and driving coordination of the active-passive combination driven ankle exoskeleton robot were verified through experiments.

文摘The growing incidence of cyberattacks necessitates a robust and effective Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS)for enhanced network security.While conventional IDSs can be unsuitable for detecting different and emerging attacks,there is a demand for better techniques to improve detection reliability.This study introduces a new method,the Deep Adaptive Multi-Layer Attention Network(DAMLAN),to boost the result of intrusion detection on network data.Due to its multi-scale attention mechanisms and graph features,DAMLAN aims to address both known and unknown intrusions.The real-world NSL-KDD dataset,a popular choice among IDS researchers,is used to assess the proposed model.There are 67,343 normal samples and 58,630 intrusion attacks in the training set,12,833 normal samples,and 9711 intrusion attacks in the test set.Thus,the proposed DAMLAN method is more effective than the standard models due to the consideration of patterns by the attention layers.The experimental performance of the proposed model demonstrates that it achieves 99.26%training accuracy and 90.68%testing accuracy,with precision reaching 98.54%on the training set and 96.64%on the testing set.The recall and F1 scores again support the model with training set values of 99.90%and 99.21%and testing set values of 86.65%and 91.37%.These results provide a strong basis for the claims made regarding the model’s potential to identify intrusion attacks and affirm its relatively strong overall performance,irrespective of type.Future work would employ more attempts to extend the scalability and applicability of DAMLAN for real-time use in intrusion detection systems.

文摘This study proposes a general imperfect thermal contact model to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface among multi-layered composite structures.Based on the Green-Lindsay(GL)thermoelastic theory,semi analytical solutions of temperature increment and displacement of multi-layered composite structures are obtained by using the Laplace transform method,upon which the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition coefficient,thermal conductivity ratio and heat capacity ratio on the responses are studied.The results show that the generalized imperfect thermal contact model can realistically describe the imperfect thermal contact problem.Accordingly,it may degenerate into other thermal contact models by adjusting the thermal resistance coefficient and partition coefficient.

文摘Following the COVID-19 outbreak,a vast array of chlorine disinfectants was used to eliminate the virus,leading to inevitable discharge into aquatic ecosystems.These environments also contain various anthropogenic micropollutants,such as pharmaceuticals,which pose threats to the survival and activities of biological communities.Consequently,the presence of discharged chlorine disinfectants and pharmaceuticals can simultaneously impact the structure and function of aquatic ecosystems.To investigate the combined effects of chlorine disinfectants and pharmaceuticals on the periphyton and zoobenthos(Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri)community composition and function,we conducted a 12-flume reactor experiment using sodium hypochlorite and representative pharmaceuticals(abundant in the Yangtze River)as influents.Results demonstrated that the discharge of chlorine disinfectants further altered the composition of river prokaryotic communities.Eukaryotic organisms within the periphyton exhibited greater resilience to chlorine exposure compared to prokaryotic communities.Metagenomic analysis revealed that prokaryotic communities with different compositions can execute similar functions,while RNA sequencing indicated that co-exposure promoted biological processes such as focal adhesion and ribosome synthesis,but inhibited activities related to nitrogen metabolism and resistance to folate antimicrobials.Additionally,co-exposure induced oxidative stress in L.hoffmeisteri,leading to stronger environmental adaptation.

文摘Nanoplastics are emerging contaminants that may co-exist with organochlorine pesticides and adversely affect invertebrates in the environment.However,the impact of environmental aging on the combined toxicity of nanoplastics and organochlorine pesticides remains unclear.This study investigated the effects of aging on the combined toxicity of polystyrene nanoplastics(PS NPs)and chlordane against Caenorhabditis elegans.The results showed that photo-aging altered the physicochemical properties of PS NPs and promoted the combined toxicity of PS NPs and chlordane to nematodes by reducing survival rate,body length and enhancing germline apoptosis.Additionally,combined exposure of nematodes to aged PS NPs and chlordane significantly increased reactive oxygen species production and intestinal permeability,suggesting that aging enhances combined toxicity through oxidative stress and intestinal damage.Moreover,aging increased chlordane contents in nematodes without promoting PS NPs accumulation,potentially leading to increased combined toxicity of PS NPs and chlordane.Notably,aging significantly increased the accumulation of PS NPs in the posterior intestine of the nematode during co-exposure,which may be responsible for the most sensitive and highest degree of change in germline apoptosis.These observations emphasize the significance of accounting for environmental aging as well as the accumulation and distribution of nanoplastics in organisms when assessing the combined effects of nanoplastics and coexisting pollutants.

文摘China boasts abundant heavy oil resources,which is vital for its energy security.However,its heavy oil typically exhibits high viscosity,which severely hinders its flow and extraction.Enhancing heavy oil flowability is vital for its effective exploitation.This study independently developed a visualization experimental system and explored the mechanisms through which combined thermal flooding(a combination of heat,chemical agents and gas)enhances heavy oil flowability.Results indicate that combined thermal flooding,that is,synergistically integrating heat,chemical agents,and gas,can effectively enhance the recovery of heavy oil by improving its flowability.Its working mechanisms were explored from the aspects of thermal effects,emulsification,precursor film,profile control capacity,and CO_(2) solution and extraction effects.The emulsification was observed using a confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscope(CLSFM).Findings reveal that steam flooding can boost crude oil flowability by augmenting temperature,while a chemical system tends to produce low-viscosity oil-in-water emul-sions,thus further aiding the flow of crude oil.During CO_(2) flooding,the solvent initially reduced crude oil viscosity and formed foamy oil,followed by the pronounced component separation of the produced fluids in the later stage.This demonstrates the effectiveness of CO_(2) in viscosity reduction and component extraction.Additionally,the results of interfacial tension experiments indicate that surfactants can reduce the heavy oil's interfacial tension,fostering the formation of nano-scale precursor films.They can also thicken these films and diminish their spreading resistance,thus accelerating residual oil removal and promoting heavy oil production.This study further elaborated the mechanisms behind the combined thermal flooding's efficiency in enhancing heavy oil recovery,offering a theoretical foundation for its broader application.
文摘Objective:To analyze the effects of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia and epidural anesthesia in patients undergoing appendicitis surgery.Methods:Seventy-eight patients who underwent surgical treatment for appendicitis from February 2022 to February 2025 were selected as samples and randomly divided into two groups.The study group received combined spinal-epidural anesthesia,while the control group received epidural anesthesia.Anesthesia indicators,vital signs,and complication indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:The onset time of anesthesia in the study group was shorter than that in the control group,the visual analog scale(VAS)score was lower than that in the control group,and the highest plane of anesthesia block was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).At 15 minutes after anesthesia induction and at the end of surgery,the heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),and blood oxygen saturation(SPO2)in the study group were significantly different from those in the control group(P<0.05).The complication rate in the study group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for appendicitis surgery can reduce the impact of anesthesia on vital signs,shorten the onset time of anesthesia,and is highly effective and feasible.

文摘Unstable operating conditions such as surge could cause damage to both aerodynamic performance and structural integrity of a compression system.This paper addresses the critical issue of aerodynamic instability in compressor design,particularly focusing on an axial-centrifugal combined compressor,a widely used yet underexplored configuration.An experimental investigation was conducted on a three-stage axial and one-stage centrifugal compressor(3A1C),using two pipe systems and employing fast-responding transducers to capture the dynamic instability process from choke condition to deep surge.Results reveal that at the design speed,3A1C enters deep surge directly,whereas at off-design speeds,it experiences rotating stall and mild surge across a wide mass flow range.Some special instability features in the combined compressor can be found in the steady state map and dynamic process.The characteristic curve of the first axial stage keeps a positive slope during the whole mass flow range at an off-design speed.The first stage could work stably on the stall characteristic curve because the centrifugal stage has stronger pressurization and plays a dominant role in global aerodynamic instability.Besides,rotating instability occurs at the first rotor tip and disappears as the back pressure increases,which is also rarely seen in a single-axial compressor.This is also related to the strong pressurization of the centrifugal stage.The findings of this paper will contribute to the understanding of aerodynamic instabilities in combined compressors.

文摘Low Earth Orbit(LEO)mega-constellation networks,exemplified by Starlink,are poised to play a pivotal role in future mobile communication networks,due to their low latency and high capacity.With the massively deployed satellites,ground users now can be covered by multiple visible satellites,but also face complex handover issues with such massive high-mobility satellites in multi-layer.The end-to-end routing is also affected by the handover behavior.In this paper,we propose an intelligent handover strategy dedicated to multi-layer LEO mega-constellation networks.Firstly,an analytic model is utilized to rapidly estimate the end-to-end propagation latency as a key handover factor to construct a multi-objective optimization model.Subsequently,an intelligent handover strategy is proposed by employing the Dueling Double Deep Q Network(D3QN)-based deep reinforcement learning algorithm for single-layer constellations.Moreover,an optimal crosslayer handover scheme is proposed by predicting the latency-jitter and minimizing the cross-layer overhead.Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method in the multi-layer LEO mega-constellation,showcasing reductions of up to 8.2%and 59.5%in end-to-end latency and jitter respectively,when compared to the existing handover strategies.
文摘Purpose:To investigate the clinical effects of improving adolescents’form anxiety after the intervention of visceral massage technique and form training.Methods:A total of 80 adolescent patients with scoliosis abnormalities were selected for this experiment,and they were intervened with form and body training and form and body training+visceral body acupressure techniques,and the anxiety and depression scores,spinal Cobb angle,vertebral body rotation of the parietal vertebrae,and the treatment efficiency were compared between the groups after the clinical interventions.Results:The anxiety and depression scores of patients in the form group were significantly higher than those of the combined group,P<0.05;the improvement of the Cobb angle and vertebral rotation of the parietal vertebrae of patients in the combined group was better than that of the form group,P<0.05;and the total effective rate of the treatment of patients in the form group was significantly lower than that of the combined group,P<0.05.Conclusion:After intervening in adolescents’abnormalities of form,patients were treated with a combination of the internal organs and body acupressure techniques and form training methods,and the results were compared between groups.After the joint intervention of the visceral massage technique and physical training,the patients’scoliosis and other physical problems were positively improved,and the psychological status of the patients was relatively adjusted to ensure their physical and mental health.
文摘Combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma(cHCC-CCA)is a rare hetero-geneous primary malignant liver tumor containing both hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma features.The complex presentation of cHCC-CCA tends to be poorly investigated,and the information derived from traditional diagnostic techniques(histopathology and radiological imaging)is often not optimal.Since cHCC-CCA is usually difficult to diagnose due to complex histopathological features(edge learning)as excessive photos,hence,achieves treatment delays and poor prognosis,the incorporation of advanced artificial intelligence like edge learning is able to improve the patient’s outcome.Using artificial intelligence,particularly deep learning,has recently opened new doorways for the impro-vement of diagnostic accuracy.If artificial intelligence models are deployed on local devices,edge learning exercises this type of learning,which provides real time processing,improved data privacy and reduced bandwidth usage.This narrative review investigates the conceptual formulation of edge learning together with its opportunities for clinical applications in the prediction and classification of cHCC-CCA,the technical solution strategies,the clinical benefits it offers,and associated challenges and future directions.

文摘Objective:To explore the application effect of MBSR combined with relaxation training in the perioperative period of radiofrequency ablation combined with ozone interventional therapy for lumbar disc herniation.Methods:90 patients with lumbar disc herniation who underwent radiofrequency ablation(RFA)combined with ozone interventional therapy in the Orthopedics and Traumatology Department of our hospital from January to December 2019 were included as research samples.They were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method:the control group(45 cases)received routine perioperative nursing and health education;the experimental group(45 cases)received a comprehensive psychological intervention program consisting of MBSR combined with relaxation training in addition to the control group’s treatment.Changes in pain perception(VAS),sleep quality(PSQI),psychological state(SAS/SDS),and life satisfaction(SWLS)were compared between the two groups before and after the intervention.Results:After the intervention,both groups showed a significant decrease in SAS and SDS scores(P<0.05),with a greater decrease in the experimental group(P<0.05);the experimental group had lower PSQI total scores and scores in each dimension compared to the control group(P<0.05);the experimental group had a significantly lower VAS score(3.56±0.88)compared to the control group(5.94±0.62)(P<0.05);the experimental group had a higher SWLS score(28.59±5.61)compared to the control group(22.46±4.15)(P<0.05).Conclusion:MBSR combined with relaxation training can significantly optimize the perioperative psychological state of patients undergoing RFA combined with ozone interventional therapy,reduce pain sensitivity and stress responses,and simultaneously improve sleep quality and treatment satisfaction.
文摘Stab-resistant textiles play a critical role in personal protection,necessitating a deeper understanding of how structural and layering factors influence their performance.The current study experimentally examines the effects of textile structure,layering,and ply orientation on the stab resistance of multi-layer textiles.Three 3D warp interlock(3DWI)structures({f1},{f2},{f3})and a 2D woven fabric({f4}),all made of high-performance p-aramid yarns,were engineered and manufactured.Multi-layer specimens were prepared and subjected to drop-weight stabbing tests following HOSBD standards.Stabbing performance metrics,including Depth of Trauma(DoT),Depth of Penetration(DoP),and trauma deformation(Ymax,Xmax),were investigated and analyzed.Statistical analyses(Two-and One-Way ANOVA)indicated that fabric type and layer number significantly impacted DoP(P<0.05),while ply orientation significantly affected DoP(P<0.05)but not DoT(P>0.05).Further detailed analysis revealed that 2D woven fabrics exhibited greater trauma deformation than 3D WIF structures.Increasing the number of layers reduced both DoP and DoT across all fabric structures,with f3 demonstrating the best performance in multi-layer configurations.Aligned ply orientations also enhanced stab resistance,underscoring the importance of alignment in dissipating impact energy.
