However, haze we...Environmentalmonitoring systems based on remote sensing technology have a wider monitoringrange and longer timeliness, which makes them widely used in the detection andmanagement of pollution sources. However, haze weather conditions degrade image qualityand reduce the precision of environmental monitoring systems. To address this problem,this research proposes a remote sensing image dehazingmethod based on the atmosphericscattering model and a dark channel prior constrained network. The method consists ofa dehazing network, a dark channel information injection network (DCIIN), and a transmissionmap network. Within the dehazing network, the branch fusion module optimizesfeature weights to enhance the dehazing effect. By leveraging dark channel information,the DCIIN enables high-quality estimation of the atmospheric veil. To ensure the outputof the deep learning model aligns with physical laws, we reconstruct the haze image usingthe prediction results from the three networks. Subsequently, we apply the traditionalloss function and dark channel loss function between the reconstructed haze image and theoriginal haze image. This approach enhances interpretability and reliabilitywhile maintainingadherence to physical principles. Furthermore, the network is trained on a synthesizednon-homogeneous haze remote sensing dataset using dark channel information from cloudmaps. The experimental results show that the proposed network can achieve better imagedehazing on both synthetic and real remote sensing images with non-homogeneous hazedistribution. This research provides a new idea for solving the problem of decreased accuracyof environmental monitoring systems under haze weather conditions and has strongpracticability.展开更多

文摘Flexible and wearable sensors offer immense potential for rehabilitation medicine,but most rely solely on electrical signals,lacking real-time visual feedback and limiting trainee's interactivity.Inspired by the structural coloration of Cyanocitta stelleri feathers,we developed a dual-mode sensor by utilizing black conductive polymer hydrogel(CPH)-enhanced structural color strategy.This sensor integrates a hydroxypropyl cellulose(HPC)-based structural color interface with a designed CPH sensing component.Highly visible light-absorbing CPH(absorption rate>88%)serves as the critical substrate for enhancing structural color performance.By absorbing incoherent scattered light and suppressing background interference,it significantly enhances the saturation of structural color,thereby achieving a high contrast index of 4.92.Unlike the faint and hardly visible structural colors on non-black substrates,the HPC on CPH displays vivid,highly perceptible colors and desirable mechanochromic behavior.Moreover,the CPH acts as a flexible sensing element,fortified by hydrogen and coordination bond networks,and exhibits exceptional electromechanical properties,including 867.1 kPa tensile strength,strain sensitivity(gauge factor of 4.24),and outstanding durability(over 4400 cycles).Compared to traditional single-mode sensors,the integrated sensor provides real-time visual and digital dual feedback,enhancing the accuracy and interactivity of rehabilitation assessments.This technology holds promise for advancing next-generation rehabilitation medicine.

文摘The growing prevalence of exercise-induced tibial stress fractures demands wearable sensors capable of monitoring dynamic musculoskeletal loads with medical-grade precision.While flexible pressure-sensing insoles show clinical potential,their development has been hindered by the intrinsic trade-off between high sensitivity and full-range linearity(R^(2)>0.99 up to 1 MPa)in conventional designs.Inspired by the tactile sensing mechanism of human skin,where dermal stratification enables wide-range pressure adaptation and ion-channelregulated signaling maintains linear electrical responses,we developed a dual-mechanism flexible iontronic pressure sensor(FIPS).This innovative design synergistically combines two bioinspired components:interdigitated fabric microstructures enabling pressure-proportional contact area expansion(αP1/3)and iontronic film facilitating self-adaptive ion concentration modulation(αP^(2/3)),which together generate a linear capacitance-pressure response(CαP).The FIPS achieves breakthrough performance:242 kPa^(-1)sensitivity with 0.997linearity across 0-1 MPa,yielding a record linear sensing factor(LSF=242,000).The design is validated across various substrates and ionic materials,demonstrating its versatility.Finally,the FIPS-driven design enables a smart insole demonstrating 1.8%error in tibial load assessment during gait analysis,outperforming nonlinear counterparts(6.5%error)in early fracture-risk prediction.The biomimetic design framework establishes a universal approach for developing high-performance linear sensors,establishing generalized principles for medical-grade wearable devices.

文摘The integration of digital twin(DT)technology with microseismic(MS)monitoring for evaluating the dynamic response of high-arch dams remains under-explored.This paper investigates the application of MS monitoring on the Dagangshan high-arch dam during its normal water storage operating period to assess potential damage.The study analyzes the MS characteristics of the dam during the Luding earthquake(Ms=6.8).A framework for constructing a damage driven DT model of a high-arch dam is proposed.The DT model is capable of self-updating its mechanical parameters based on MS data.Seismic response calculations are conducted utilizing cloud computing,allowing for the direct presentation of results within the DT model.The results indicate a high-risk area of the Dagangshan arch dam,characterized by significantMS deformation,primarily centered on the arch crown beam.This zone encompasses dam sections Nos.5-6,10-11,13-16,and 19-20,all located above 1030 m elevation.Under seismic loading,the arch dam exhibits a back-and-forth movement along the river,ultimately reaching a stable state.Following the earthquake,the stress state of the dam does not experience substantial changes.The average relative error between numerical results and measured peak ground acceleration values is 17%when considering the cumulative effect of damage,compared to 36%when neglecting this effect.This study presents a more reliable approach for assessing the state of dams.

文摘The composite material layering process has attracted considerable attention due to its production advantages,including high scalability and compatibility with a wide range of raw materials.However,changes in process conditions can lead to degradation in layer quality and non-uniformity,highlighting the need for real-time monitoring to improve overall quality and efficiency.In this study,an AI-based monitoring system was developed to evaluate layer width and assess quality in real time.Three deep learning models Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network(R-CNN),You Only Look Once version 8(YOLOv8),and Single Shot MultiBox Detector(SSD)were compared,and YOLOv8 was ultimately selected for its superior speed,flexibility,and scalability.The selected model was integrated into a user-friendly interface.To verify the reliability of the system,bead width control experiments were conducted,which identified feed speed and extrusion speed as the key process parameters.Accordingly,a Central Composite Design(CCD)experimental plan with 13 conditions was applied to evaluate layer width and validate the system’s reliability.Finally,the proposed system was applied to the additive manufacturing of an aerospace component,where it successfully detected bead width deviations during printing and enabled stable fabrication with a maximum geometric deviation of approximately 6 mm.These findings demonstrate the critical role of real-time monitoring of layer width and quality in improving process stability and final product quality in composite material additive manufacturing.

文摘The atmospheric corrosion monitoring(ACM)technique has been widely employed to track the real-time corrosion behavior of metal materials.However,limited studies have applied ACM to the corrosion protection properties of organic coatings.This study compared a bare epoxy coating with one containing zinc phosphate corrosion inhibitors,both applied on ACM sensors,to observe their corrosion protection properties over time.Coatings with artificial damage via scratches were exposed to immersion and alternating dry and wet environments,which allowed for monitoring galvanic corrosion currents in real-time.Throughout the corrosion tests,the ACM currents of the zinc phosphate/epoxy coating were considerably lower than those of the blank epoxy coating.The trend in ACM current variations closely matched the results obtained from regular electrochemical tests and surface analysis.This alignment highlights the potential of the ACM technique in evaluating the corrosion protection capabilities of organic coatings.Compared with the blank epoxy coating,the zinc phosphate/epoxy coating showed much-decreased ACM current values that confirmed the effective inhibition of zinc phosphate against steel corrosion beneath the damaged coating.

文摘Environmentalmonitoring systems based on remote sensing technology have a wider monitoringrange and longer timeliness, which makes them widely used in the detection andmanagement of pollution sources. However, haze weather conditions degrade image qualityand reduce the precision of environmental monitoring systems. To address this problem,this research proposes a remote sensing image dehazingmethod based on the atmosphericscattering model and a dark channel prior constrained network. The method consists ofa dehazing network, a dark channel information injection network (DCIIN), and a transmissionmap network. Within the dehazing network, the branch fusion module optimizesfeature weights to enhance the dehazing effect. By leveraging dark channel information,the DCIIN enables high-quality estimation of the atmospheric veil. To ensure the outputof the deep learning model aligns with physical laws, we reconstruct the haze image usingthe prediction results from the three networks. Subsequently, we apply the traditionalloss function and dark channel loss function between the reconstructed haze image and theoriginal haze image. This approach enhances interpretability and reliabilitywhile maintainingadherence to physical principles. Furthermore, the network is trained on a synthesizednon-homogeneous haze remote sensing dataset using dark channel information from cloudmaps. The experimental results show that the proposed network can achieve better imagedehazing on both synthetic and real remote sensing images with non-homogeneous hazedistribution. This research provides a new idea for solving the problem of decreased accuracyof environmental monitoring systems under haze weather conditions and has strongpracticability.

文摘BACKGROUND Continuous glucose monitoring(CGM)metrics,such as time in range(TIR)and glycemic risk index(GRI),have been linked to various diabetes-related complications,including diabetic foot(DF).AIM To investigate the association between CGM-derived indicators and the risk of DF in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS A total of 591 individuals with T2DM(297 with DF and 294 without DF)were enrolled.Relevant clinical data,complications,comorbidities,hematological parameters,and 72-hour CGM data were collected.Logistic regression analysis was employed to examine the relationship between these measurements and the risk of DF.RESULTS Individuals with DF exhibited higher mean blood glucose(MBG)levels and increased proportions of time above range(TAR),TAR level 1,and TAR level 2,but lower TIR(all P<0.001).Patients with DF had significantly lower rates of achieving target ranges for TIR,TAR,and TAR level 2 than those without DF(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis revealed that GRI,MBG,and TAR level 1 were positively associated with DF risk,while TIR was inversely correlated(all P<0.05).Achieving TIR and TAR was inversely correlated with white blood cell count and glycated hemoglobin A1c levels(P<0.05).Additionally,achieving TAR was influenced by fasting plasma glucose,body mass index,diabetes duration,and antidiabetic medication use.CONCLUSION CGM metrics,particularly TIR and GRI,are significantly associated with the risk of DF in T2DM,emphasizing the importance of improved glucose control.

文摘Three-dimensional(3D)urban structures play a critical role in informing climate mitigation strategies aimed at the built environment and facilitating sustainable urban development.Regrettably,there exists a significant gap in detailed and consistent data on 3D building space structures with global coverage due to the challenges inherent in the data collection and model calibration processes.In this study,we constructed a global urban structure(GUS-3D)dataset,including building volume,height,and footprint information,at a 500 m spatial resolution using extensive satellite observation products and numerous reference building samples.Our analysis indicated that the total volume of buildings worldwide in2015 exceeded 1×10^(12)m^(3).Over the 1985 to 2015 period,we observed a slight increase in the magnitude of 3D building volume growth(i.e.,it increased from 166.02 km3 during the 1985–2000 period to 175.08km3 during the 2000–2015 period),while the expansion magnitudes of the two-dimensional(2D)building footprint(22.51×10^(3) vs 13.29×10^(3)km^(2))and urban extent(157×10^(3) vs 133.8×10^(3)km^(2))notably decreased.This trend highlights the significant increase in intensive vertical utilization of urban land.Furthermore,we identified significant heterogeneity in building space provision and inequality across cities worldwide.This inequality is particularly pronounced in many populous Asian cities,which has been overlooked in previous studies on economic inequality.The GUS-3D dataset shows great potential to deepen our understanding of the urban environment and creates new horizons for numerous 3D urban studies.

文摘BACKGROUND Inguinal hernias are common after surgery.Tension-free repair is widely accepted as the main method for managing inguinal hernias.Adequate exposure,coverage,and repair of the myopectineal orifice(MPO)are necessary.However,due to differences in race and sex,people’s body shapes vary.According to European guidelines,the patch should measure 10 cm×15 cm.If any part of the MPO is dissected,injury to the nerves,vascular network,or organs may occur during surgery,thereby leading to inguinal discomfort,pain,and seroma formation after surgery.Therefore,accurate localization and measurement of the boundary of the MPO are crucial for selecting the optimal patch for inguinal hernia repair.AIM To compare the size of the MPO measured on three-dimensional multislice spiral computed tomography(CT)with that measured via laparoscopy and explore the relevant factors influencing the size of the MPO.METHODS Clinical data from 74 patients who underwent laparoscopic tension-free inguinal hernia repair at the General Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Science and Technology between September 2022 and July 2024 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Transabdominal preperitoneal was performed.Sixty-four males and 10 females,with an average age of 58.30±12.32 years,were included.The clinical data of the patients were collected.The boundary of the MPO was measured on three-dimensional CT images before surgery and then again during transabdominal preperitoneal.All the preoperative and intraoperative data were analyzed via paired t-tests.A t-test was used for comparisons of age,body mass index,and sex between the groups.In the comparative analysis,a P value less than 0.05 indicated a significant difference.RESULTS The boundaries of the MPO on 3-dimensional CT images measured 7.05±0.47 cm and 6.27±0.61 cm,and the area of the MPO was 19.54±3.33 cm^(2).The boundaries of the MPO during surgery were 7.18±0.51 cm and 6.17±0.40 cm.The errors were not statistically significant.However,the intraoperative BD(the width of the MPO,P=0.024,P<0.05)and preoperative AC(the length of the MPO,P=0.045,P<0.05)significantly differed according to sex.The AC and BD measurements before and during surgery were not significantly different according to age,body mass index,hernia side or hernia type(P>0.05).CONCLUSION The application of this technology can aid in determining the most appropriate dissection range and patch size.

文摘General anesthesia,pivotal for surgical procedures,requires precise depth monitoring to mitigate risks ranging from intraoperative awareness to postoperative cognitive impairments.Traditional assessment methods,relying on physiological indicators or behavioral responses,fall short of accurately capturing the nuanced states of unconsciousness.This study introduces a machine learning-based approach to decode anesthesia depth,leveraging EEG data across different anesthesia states induced by propofol and esketamine in rats.Our findings demonstrate the model’s robust predictive accuracy,underscored by a novel intrasubject dataset partitioning and a 5-fold cross-validation method.The research diverges from conventional monitoring by utilizing anesthetic infusion rates as objective indicators of anesthesia states,highlighting distinct EEG patterns and enhancing prediction accuracy.Moreover,the model’s ability to generalize across individuals suggests its potential for broad clinical application,distinguishing between anesthetic agents and their depths.Despite relying on rat EEG data,which poses questions about real-world applicability,our approach marks a significant advance in anesthesia monitoring.
文摘To address the problem of multi-missile cooperative interception against maneuvering targets at a prespecified impact time and desired Line-of-Sight(LOS)angles in ThreeDimensional(3D)space,this paper proposes a 3D leader-following cooperative interception guidance law.First,in the LOS direction of the leader,an impact time-controlled guidance law is derived based on the fixed-time stability theory,which enables the leader to complete the interception task at a prespecified impact time.Next,in the LOS direction of the followers,by introducing a time consensus tracking error function,a fixed-time consensus tracking guidance law is investigated to guarantee the consensus tracking convergence of the time-to-go.Then,in the direction normal to the LOS,by combining the designed global integral sliding mode surface and the second-order Sliding Mode Control(SMC)theory,an innovative 3D LOS-angle-constrained interception guidance law is developed,which eliminates the reaching phase in the traditional sliding mode guidance laws and effectively saves energy consumption.Moreover,it effectively suppresses the chattering phenomenon while avoiding the singularity issue,and compensates for unknown interference caused by target maneuvering online,making it convenient for practical engineering applications.Finally,theoretical proof analysis and multiple sets of numerical simulation results verify the effectiveness,superiority,and robustness of the investigated guidance law.
