Nonlinear spline finite element method (n-spline FEM) is adopted to establish the relationship between the ribbing height and deflection of additional shape wave, for example, post buckling deformation. The proposed spline FEM is more effective and convenient than traditional finite element method in the buckling analysis. Using the spline FEM, the shape wave caused by the ribbing is calculated, and then the ribbing values can be obtained which are difficult to measure in practice. At the same time, the judgment rule is also given for estimating the strip quality according to the ribbing value.展开更多

In order to ensure the safety and reliability of the turbine blades, cooling structures must be set inside turbine blades to cool them. Heat transfer coefficient and flow resistance are the key parameters to measure the cooling characteristics of internal cooling structures. In this paper, the characteristics of flow resistance in a rotating ribbed channel is presented numerical simulation under different rib spacings, rib angles, and thermal boundary conditions. The results show that, separation and reattachment of fluid between ribs is the key effect of rib spacing on flow resistance. The flow resistance is small when the rib spacing is small, because it's difficult for the fluid to form reattachment between the ribs. With the increase of rib spacing, the reattachment phenomenon is more obvious and the flow resistance increases accordingly. In general,p: e=10 channel has the maximum flow resistance. Secondary flow caused by the ribs is the key factor affecting the flow resistance characteristics with different rib angles. The secondary flow interacts with the main flow and causes flow loss through mixing, thus affecting the flow resistance of the channel. Under static condition, the flow resistance of 60°ribbed channel is the largest. The flow resistance of channel was affected by the temperature rise ratio also. And with the increase of the Ro, the temperature rise ratio has a more obvious effect on the flow resistance of the ribbed channel.When Ro=0.45, the flow resistance of the channel with a temperature rise ratio of 0.4 is 2.4 times that of the channel without temperature rise, while when Ro=0.3, it is 1.6 times, and when Ro=0.15, it is 1.2 times.展开更多

Methods: Seventy-five patients admitted to our Department of Trauma Surgery from June 2022 to April 2024 who underwent rib fracture osteotomy and internal fixation were selected. According to the types of drainage tubes left in the patients after the operation, they were divided into the observation group (35 cases who were left with disposable grooved negative pressure drainage tubes) and the control group (40 cases who were left with closed silicone thoracic drainage tubes). Comparison of chest drainage, pain, postoperative complications, secondary chest penetration rate, drain placement time, hospitalization time, and treatment costs were compared between the two groups. Results: The total postoperative chest drainage volume of the observation group was less than that of the control group (P < 0.05);the degree of pain, the incidence of postoperative complications, and the rate of secondary chest puncture in the observation group were lower than that of the control group three days after the operation (P < 0.05);and the time of drain placement in the observation group was shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The application of disposable grooved negative pressure drainage tubes in rib fracture incision and internal fixation can significantly improve patients’ postoperative pain and discomfort, reduce complications, lower the rate of secondary chest penetration, promote patients’ postoperative recovery, decrease the amount of postoperative chest drainage, and shorten the time of drain placement, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.展开更多

文摘With the development of aero-engines, the turbine inlet temperature continues to rise. In order to ensure the safety and reliability of the turbine blades, cooling structures must be set inside turbine blades to cool them. Heat transfer coefficient and flow resistance are the key parameters to measure the cooling characteristics of internal cooling structures. In this paper, the characteristics of flow resistance in a rotating ribbed channel is presented numerical simulation under different rib spacings, rib angles, and thermal boundary conditions. The results show that, separation and reattachment of fluid between ribs is the key effect of rib spacing on flow resistance. The flow resistance is small when the rib spacing is small, because it's difficult for the fluid to form reattachment between the ribs. With the increase of rib spacing, the reattachment phenomenon is more obvious and the flow resistance increases accordingly. In general,p: e=10 channel has the maximum flow resistance.

And with the increase of the Ro, the temperature rise ratio has a more obvious effect on the flow resistance of the ribbed channel.When Ro=0.45, the flow resistance of the channel with a temperature rise ratio of 0.4 is 2.4 times that of the channel without temperature rise, while when Ro=0.3, it is 1.6 times, and when Ro=0.15, it is 1.2 times.
