Methods: The finite element method (FEM) was used to calculate,electromagnetic field and SAR distribution. Two different structure applicators were simulated. Theone is simple coaxial antenna, which has been successfully used in clinic treating bone tumors inTangdu hospital of the Forth Military Medical University several years. It was formed by a coaxialcable peeled off the out copper at end. The other applicator was coaxial- slot antenna, which waswidely used in microwave hyperthermia. The applicator inserted into the cylindrical bone withdifferent depths, and worked at the frequency of 2 450 MHz. Results: The electric field and SARgenerated by the simple coaxial applicator were mainly concentrated out the tissues, and were notuniform in the tissues, while the coaxial- slot applicator well transmits the electric field and SARinto the tissues, and can easily treat different position by adjusting the slat position.Conclusion: The results calculated by EFM, were well accordant with the experimental and clinicalresulls, and will be important for improving the clinical effects of microwave hyperthermia.展开更多

Microstructure was observed to reveal the mechanism of hydrogen-enhanced compressive properties. The experimental results indicate that hydrogen has favorable effects on the compressive properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy at high strain rate. Compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy first increases up to a maximum and then decreases with the increase of hydrogen content at the same discharge energy under EMF tests. The compression increases by 47.0% when 0.2% (mass fraction) hydrogen is introduced into Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The optimal hydrogen content for cold formation of Ti–6Al–4V alloy under EMF was determined. The reasons for the hydrogen-induced compressive properties were discussed.展开更多

Magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion tensor images of five healthy volunteers are collected. The diffusion sensitive gradient magnetic fields are applied along 25 directions and the diffusion weighting value is 1 000 s/mm^2. Many positive-indefinite diffusion tensors can be found in the white matter area, such as the genu and the splenium of corpus callosum. Due to the positive-indefinite matrix, the mean diffusivity (MD) and the fractional anisotropy (FA) are under-estimated and over-estimated by using the conventional algorithm. Thus, the conventional algorithm is modified by using the absolute values of all eigenvalues. Results show that both the robustness and the reliability for deriving these parameters are improved by the modified algorithm.展开更多

This technology includes fabricating multi-turns planar micro coils and fabricating the thick magnetic (NiFe) core on the silicon wafer. The multi-turns planar micro coils are fabricated by the electroplating method from the surface along the line and by dynamically controlling the current density of the copper electrolytes. In order to fabricate thick NiFe plating,the adhesion properties between the NiFe plating and the silicon substrates are improved by changing the surface roughness of the silicon substrates and increasing the thickness of the seed layer. Furthermore,the micro electromagnetic actuator is tested and the energy density of the actuator is evaluated by force testing. The experiments show that the microactuator is efficient in producing high magnetic energy density and high magnetic force.展开更多

The fluid flowing in a hydraulic cylinder is employed to drive an electromagnetic generator for harvesting vibration energy, which on the other hand, leads to a damping effect of the hydraulic damper. To make the damping force variable, an adjustable resistor is adopted to tune the capability of energy harvesting. The present approach is validated by both theoretical analysis and experimental evaluation. When connected with different resistance loads, the prototype damper has different equivalent damping coefficients ranging from 3. 987 × 104 to 2. 488 × 105 N· s/m. The results show that the damping force of the damper is variable in response to the adjustable load for the vibration energy harvesting.展开更多

The strong C+ peak produced in Ar^+-C60 must be due to the elastic collisions (nuclear stopping), because the Ar+ is heavy enough to knock out the C^+ from C60 molecule. In general, the excitation energy depends on the projectile velocity, charge, and mass. Direct vibronic excitation by elastic collisions (nuclear stopping) is predicted for slow heavy ions, while the electronic excitation (electronic stopping) is dominant for fast ions[1]. For example, Schlatholter, et al.[2] found a strong velocity effect in collisions of He^+ with fullerene in the velocity range from 0.1 to 1 a.u. With increasing velocity, the C2 evaporation process decreases and the multi-fragmentation is linearly increasing.展开更多

By diagonalizing this matrix, the energy spectrum of YGG:Cr^3+ at normal pressure and low temperature has been calculated. The g factor of the ground-state has been evaluated in terms of the energy spectrum. At the same time, by using the wavefunctions obtained from diagonalizing the complete d^3 energy matrix and Thermal Shifts theory, we calculate the thermal shifts of the sharp lines of YGG:Cr^3+ and determine the relevant parameters. The calculated results are all in good agreement with the optical-spectrum and EPR experimental data. It is demonstrated that the obtained wavefunctions and the values of parameters are reasonable.展开更多

Multi-resolution wavelet decomposition is used to transform each type of images to the frequency domain in order to obtain the frequency components of the images. To each subject, decomposition components of two images are then added up separately according to their frequencies. The inverse discrete wavelet transform is used to reconstruct the fused images. After that, principal component analysis (PCA) is applied to reduce the dimension and obtain the features of the fusion data before classification. Based on the features of the fused images, an accuracy rate of 80. 95 % for depression recognition is achieved using a leave-one-out cross-validation test. It can be concluded that this wavelet fusion scheme has the ability to improve the current diagnosis of depression.展开更多

The triple differential cross sections are calculated and analyzed in very asymmetric coplanar geometry at incident energies of 5.50, 1.50 and 0.57 keV. Results are compared with the absolute measurements and the theoretical first and second Born approximation. The present triply differential cross section (TDCS) is found to be in good agreement with experimental data qualitatively. The distinguishing feature noted in TDCS structure is the presence of intense recoil peak that for certain parameters is even larger than the binary peak, an unusual feature for the single-ionization process at high and intermediate energies.展开更多

It is shown that the two-fold time reversal degeneracy is broken and the quasibound states of GQD with positive^negative angular momentum shifted upwards/downwards with increasing the magnetic flux. The variation of the quasibound energy depends linearly on the magnetic flux, which is quite different from the parabolic relationship for SchrSdinger electrons. The GQD's quasibound states spectrum shows an obvious Aharonov-Bohm (AB) oscillations with the magnetic flux. It is also shown that the quasibound state with energy equal to the barrier height becomes a bound state completely confined in GQD.展开更多

In this regard, the effect of band non-parabolieity has been performed using the Luttinger-Kohn effective mass equation. The binding energies and the diamagnetic susceptibility of the hydrogenic impurity are computed as a function of the dot radius and different values of the pressure in the presence of conduction band non-parabolicity effect. The results we arrived at are as follows: the incorporation of the band edge non-parabolicity increases the binding energies and decreases the absolute value of the diamagnetic susceptibility for a given pressure and radius; the binding energies increase and the magnitude of the diamagnetic susceptibility reduces with increasing pressure.展开更多
