Firstly, the system framework and a rapid modeling method of CNC machine tool are studied under the virtual environment based on PolyTrans and CAD software. Then, a new method is proposed to enhance and expand the interactive ability of virtual reality modeling language(VRML) by attaining communication among VRML, JavaApplet, JavaScript and Html so as to realize the virtual operation for CNC machine tool. Moreover, the algorithm of material removed simulation based on VRML Z-map is presented. The advantages of this algorithm include less memory requirement and much higher computation. Lastly, the CNC milling machine is taken as an illustrative example for the prototype development in order to validate the feasibility of the proposed approach.展开更多

Methods Twelve patients underwent fMRI. Among them, 4 patients also underwent the Wada test. Anterior temporal lobectomy was performed on patients with epileptic focus on the non-dominant hemisphere, and selective amygdalo-hippocampectomy on patients with epileptic focus on the dominant hemisphere.Results Ten patients had left dominance, and 2 right dominance. The fMRI results were concordant with Wada test results in the 4 patients who accepted the Wada test. Seven patients underwent anterior temporal lobectomy, and 5 underwent selective amygdalo-hippocampectomy. There was no post-operative dysphasia. Conclusion fMRI is an alternative method of noninvasive functional mapping for language dominance in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.展开更多
