SE5型自动塞线机的应用

一、概述 在电刷生产中,利用专用机械对电刷进行塞线,使塞线工序从原始的手工操作走向了机械化。机械塞线,减轻了工人的劳动强度,但塞线效率的提高并不显著。能否在此基础上,再进一步实行塞线自动化,我们在从奥地利鲁道夫工厂引进的SE5型锤击机上,配置了专用的自动进给机构后,实现了塞线自动化。自动塞线后的电刷外观、刷体与引出软接线间的脱出拉力、刷体与引出软接线间的联接电阻,均能符合技术要求。以每小时塞线500根计,其效率是手工塞线的三倍左右。我们通过对几十万只六种不同结构形式的电刷进行自动塞线后认为,无论对斜面钻孔、平面钻孔、端面钻孔的电刷,还是对具有较长软接线(如95±1)的电刷,只要配置了专用的自动进给机构,均能在SE5型锤击机上进行自动塞线,并获得了良好效果。对影响塞线质量的各种因素,都能在该机上进行独立调节,从而在最佳条件下完成自动塞线。

Post-radiation survival time in hepatocellular carcinoma based on predictors for CT-determined, transarterial embolization and various other parameters

AIM: In this retrospective study of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we have investigated the efficacy of CT-derived parameters, laboratory measurements, clinical assessment and associated transarterial embolization (TAE) as predictors of post-radiotherapy survival time. METHODS: Sixty-six patients diagnosed with unresectable HCC that had undergone radiotherapy at two medical university hospitals in Taipei were enrolled in the study. Using multivariant analysis, pre-treatment parameters including tumor number and CT confirmation of PVT and ascites were compared. Multivariant analysis was also used for comparison of the mean pretreatment values for laboratory measurements, including alpha-fetoprotein, direct/total bilirubin and GOT/GPT levels, and clinical history of chronic hepatitis across the three survival-time categories. The x2 was used to test the significance of the relationship between survival time and TAE procedure. The P values for the above tests were deemed statistically significant where P<0.05. RESULTS: Portal vein thrombosis (P= 0.032) and ascites (P><0.05) were negative predictors of post-radiation survival time. Low-grade liver cirrhosis (A or B), lower tumor volume and low levels of AFT, GOT/GPT, and total bilirubin were predictors of longer post-radiation survival time (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The CT and clinical and laboratory assessment provide a reference for, and enable estimation of, probable survival times in HCC patients after radiotherapy. Tumor volume, severity of liver cirrhosis, status with respect to portal vein thrombosis and ascites and AFT, GOT/GPT and total bilirubin values were significant predictors of survival in this study.

ARROW-WTCP:A fast transport protocol based on explicit congestion notification over wired/wireless networks

An explicit congestion notification (ECN)-based distributed transport protocol,ARROW-WTCP (AcceleRate tRansmission towards Optimal Window size TCP for Wireless network),was proposed.The ARROW-WTCP enables feasible deployment of ARROW-TCP from wired to wireless networks by providing a joint design of source and router algorithms.The protocol obtains the actual capacity of the wireless channel by calculating the queue variation in base station (BS) and adjusts the congestion window by using the feedback from its bottleneck link.The simulation results show that the ARROW-WTCP achieves strong stability,max-min fairness in dynamic networks,fast convergence to efficiency without introducing much excess traffic,and almost full link utilization in the steady state.It outperforms the XCP-B (eXplicit Control Protocol Blind),the wireless version of XCP,in terms of stability,fairness,convergence and utilization in wireless networks.

Research on the Arc Interpolation for the Nonstandard Section Curve of the Piston

The transverse section of piston skirt is not a standard circle and is with high precision. So the section curve should be interpolated through the high accuracy method of circular arc interpolation before NC machining. In order to smooth the connection of adjacent arcs and shorten the NC machining program, an interpolation method based on Chebyshev theory of function approximation is proposed here. According to the analysis of the interpolation error, the algorithm is simple and with high precision. By this way the fewest interpolating circular arc segments can be got, and the manufacture requirement is satisfied with the circular arc interpolating curves.

Five-year major clinical outcomes between first-generation ana second- generation drug-eluting stents in acute myocardial infarction patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention

Background There were limited data comparing the major clinical outcomes between first-generation （1G）-drug eluting stentts （DES） and second-generation （2G）-DES in patients with acute myocardial infarction （AMI） after percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI） during very long follow-up periods. We thought to investigate the comparative efficacy and safety of 2G-DES compared with 1G-DES in AMI patients during 5-year follow-up periods. Method A total of 1016 eligible AMI patients who underwent PCI with 1G-DES [paclitaxel-, sirolimus-, 1G-zotarolimus-eluting stent （endeavor~ or endeavor sprintS）, n = 554] or 2G-DES [2G-zotarolimus （endeavor resolute~）- or everolimus-eluting stent, n = 462] were enrolled. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events （MACE） defined as total death, non-fatal myocardial infarction （MI）, target lesion revascularization （TLR）, target vessel revascularization （TVR）, non-target vessel revascularization （Non-TVR） and the secondary endpoint was stem thrombosis （ST） at 5 years. Results Two propensity score-ma- tched （PSM） groups （232 pairs, n = 464, C-statistic = 0.802） were generated. During the 5-year follow-up period, the cumulative incidence of TLR [hazard ratio （HR）： 3.133; 95% confidence interval （CI）： 1.539-6.376; P = 0.002], TVR （HR： 3.144; 95% CI： 1.59645.192; P = 0.001） and total revascularization rate （FIR： 1.874; 95% CI： 1.086-3.140; P = 0.023） were significantly higher in 1G-DES compared with 2G-DES after PSM. However, the incidence of total death, non-fatal MI and ST were similar between the two groups. Conclusion In this single-center and all-comers registry, 2G-DES＇s superiorities for TLR, TVP, and total revascularization in AMI patients suggested during 5-year clinical follow-up periods.

Computed tomography perfusion in evaluating the therapeutic effect of transarterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma

AIM： To prospectively assess the changes in parameters of computed tomography （CT） perfusion pre- and post-transarterial chemoembolization （TACE） of hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） in different treatment response groups, and to correlate the changes with various responses of HCC to TACE. METHODS： Thirty-nine HCC patients underwent CT perfusion examinations pre-（1 d before TACE） and post-treatment （4 wk after TACE）. The response evaluation criteria for solid tumors （RECIST） were referred to when treatment responses were distributed. Wilcoxon-signed ranks test was used to compare the differences in CT perfusion parameters pre- and post- TACE for different response groups. RESULTS： Only one case had treatment response to CR and the CT perfusion maps of post-treatment lesion displayed complete absence of signals. In the PR treatment response group, hepatic artery perfusion （HAP）, hepatic arterial fracture （HAF） and hepatic blood volume （HBV） of viable tumors post-TACE were reduced compared with pre-TACE （P = 0.001, 0.030 and 0.001, respectively）. In the SD group, all CT perfusion parameters were not significantly different pre- and post-TACE. In the PD group, HAP, HAl=, portal vein perfusion （PVP） and hepatic blood flow （HBF） of viable tumors post-TACE were significantly increased compared with pre-TACE （P = 0.005, 0.012, 0.035 and 0.005, respectively）. CONCLUSION： Changes in CT perfusion parameters of viable tumors are correlated with different responses of HCC to TACE. Therefore, CT perfusion imaging is a feasible technique for monitoring response of HCC to TACE.

Optimal timing of staged percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with multivessel disease

Background Studies have shown that staged percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI） for non-culprit lesions is beneficial for prog- nosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction （STEMI） patients with multivessel disease. However, the optimal timing of staged re- vascularization is still controversial. This study aimed to find the optimal timing of staged revascularization. Methods A total of 428 STEMI patients with multivessel disease who underwent primary PCI and staged PCI were included. According to the time interval between primary and staged PCI, patients were divided into three groups （〈 1 week, 1- weeks, and 2-12 weeks after primary PCI）. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events （MACE）, a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal re-infarction, repeat revascularization, and stroke. Cox regression model was used to assess the association between staged PCI timing and risk of MACE. Results During the follow-up, 119 participants had MACEs. There was statistical difference in MACE incidence among the three groups （〈 1 week： 23.0%; 1-2 weeks： 33.0%; 2-12 weeks： 40.0%; P = 0.001）. In the multivariable adjustment model, the timing interval of staged PCI ≤ 1 week and l-2 weeks were both significantly associated with a lower risk of MACE [hazard ratio （HR）： 0.40, 95% confidence intervals （CI）： 0.24-4）.65; HR： 0.54, 95% CI： 0.3 lq3.93, respectively], mainly attributed to a lower risk of repeat revascularization （HR： 0.41, 95% CI： 0.24-0.70; HR： 0.36, 95% CI： 0.18-0.7）, compared with a strategy of 2-12 weeks later of primary PCI. Conclusions The optimal timing of staged PCI for non-culprit vessels should be within two weeks after primary PCI for STEMI patients.

Incremental age-related one-year MACCE after acute myocardial infarction in the drug-eluting stent era （from KAMIR-NIH registry）

Objectives To evaluate the age-related one-year major adverse cardiocerebrovascular events （MACCE） after percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI） in acute myocardial infarction （AMI）. We analyzed the association between age and one-year MACCE after AMI. Methods A total of 13,104 AMI patients from Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institue of Health （KAMIR-NIH） between November 2011 and December 2015 were classified into four groups according to age （Group I, 〈 60 years, n = 4199; Group II, 60-70 years, n = 2577; Group III; 70-80 years, n = 2774; Group IV, ≥ 80 years, n = 1018）. Patients were analyzed for one-year composite of MACCE （cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, cerebrovascular events） after AMI. Results The one-year MACCE in AMI were 3.5% （Group I）, 6.3% （Group II）, 9.6% （Group III） and 17.6% （Group IV）. After adjustment for confounding para- meters, the analysis results showed that patients with AMI had incremental risk of one-year MACCE [Group II, adjusted hazard ratios （aHR） = 1.224, 95% CI： 0.965-1.525, P = 0.096; Group III, aHR = 1.316, 95% CI： 1.037-1.671, P= 0.024; Group IV, aHR = 1.975, 95% CI： 1.500-62.601, P〈 0.001） compared to Group I. Especially, cardiac death in the composite of primary end point played a major role in this effect （Group II, aHR = 1.335, 95% CI： 0.941-1.895, P= 0.106; Group III, aHR = 1.575, 95% CI： 1.122-2.210, P= 0.009; Group IV, aHR = 2.803, 95% CI： 1.937-4.054, P 〈 0.001）. Conclusions Despite advanced techniques and medications for PCI in AMI, age still exerts a powerful influence in clinical outcomes. Careful approaches, even in the modem era of developed cardiology are needed for aged-population in AMI intervention.

Fault diagnosis method of train control RBC system based on KPCA-SOM network

Radio block center(RBC)system is the core equipment of China train control system-3(CTCS-3).Now,the fault analysis of RBC system mainly depends on manual work,and the diagnostic results are inaccurate and inefficient.Therefore,the intelligent fault diagnosis method of RBC system based on one-hot model,kernel principal component analysis(KPCA)and self-organizing map(SOM)network was proposed.Firstly,the fault document matrix based on one-hot model was constructed by the fault feature lexicon selected manually and fault tracking record table.Secondly,the KPCA method was used to reduce the dimension and noise of the fault document matrix to avoid information redundancy.Finally,the processed data were input into the SOM network to train the KPCA-SOM fault classification model.Compared with back propagation(BP)neural network algorithm and SOM network algorithm,common fault patterns of train control RBC system can be effectively distinguished by KPCA-SOM intelligent diagnosis model,and the accuracy and processing efficiency are further improved.

A QoS-aware vertical handoff algorithm based on predictive network information

In converged heterogeneous wireless networks, vertical handoff is an important issue in radio resource management and occurs when an end user switches from one network to another （e.g., from wireless local area network to wideband code division multiple access）. Efficient vertical handoff should allocate network resources efficiently and maintain good quality of service （QoS） for the end users. The objective of this work is to determine conditions under which vertical handoff can be performed. The channel usage situation of each access network is formulated as a birth-death process with the objective of predicting the avaliable bandwidth and the blocking probability. A reward function is used to capture the network bandwidth and the blocking probability is expressed as a cost function. An end user will access the certain network which maximizes the total function defined as the combination of the reward fimction and the cost function. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the network performance, including higher bandwidth for end users and lower new call blocking and handoff call blocking probability for networks.

Preparation,characterization and catalytic performance of Cu nanowire catalyst for CO_(2) hydrogenation

Pure Cu nanowires as catalyst were prepared by electrochemical deposition and were used in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol.The active sites of the Cu based catalyst were discussed.The performance and structural development of the catalyst were observed during CO2 hydrogenation.A mechanism for the deactivation of the catalyst was discussed.The key factors that affect the deactivation of the catalyst were found.Cu nanowire sample was characterized by SEM,EDS,XRD,and BET.The results show that Cu nanowires have very high sintering resistance and catalytic stability.This helps to develop high performance catalysts.The changes in the grain size,SEM morphology and catalytic properties of the sample during CO2 hydrogenation show that the migration of the Cu atoms on the surface of the Cu nanowires can occur.Continuous migration of Cu atoms and sintering of Cu grains can lead to flow blockage in gas channels.The gas channel flow blockage or the sintering of Cu grains can lead to deactivation of the catalyst.However,the shape of catalytic performance curve indicates that the main reason for the deactivation of the catalyst is the gas channel flow blockage.
