In the tension-free hernia repair surgery, polypropylene (PP) patch has been confirmed as the most popular surgical implants. In this study, domestic medical PP monofilament was selected as raw material whose diameter was 0.15 mm, and the patch was knitted in the warp knitting machine of 12E gauge with one bar. Using the method of orthogonal experiment with three factors and three levels, the best heat-setting process of PP mesh was determined at the temperature of 130 ~C with 10 min under tension-free conditions. The relationship between heat-setting tension and performance of the patch was discussed. Patches with different porosity were prepared, and then structural parameters including density, thickness, porosity, and mechanical properties including tensile breaking strength, bursting strength, tearing strength, flexural rigidity and suture pulling out strength were tested and compared. The experimental results show that: the smaller of the patch's density, the higher of the porosity; other properties including density, thickness, bending stiffness, tensile breaking strength, bursting strength, tear strength, and suture pulling out strength reduce in varying degrees. This different degree of reduction is worth summarizing.展开更多

In this paper, the nature of Low Stress No Distortion (LSND) welding techniques using thermal tensioning effects is described and special emphases are given to the mechanism of localized thermal tensioning effect. The fundamental principle of Low Stress No Distortion welding is to create active in-process control of incompatible (inherent) plastic strains and stresses formation during welding to achieve distortion-free results implying that no post weld costly reworking operations for distortion correction is required. Finite element analysis is applied to predict and optimize the localized thermal tensioning technique with a trailing spot heat sink coupled to the welding heat source. Comparisons of the thermal elastic-plastic stress-strain cycles are given between conventional gas tungsten arc welding and GTAW with a trailing spot heat sink.展开更多
