Bioinspired Intervertebral Disc with Multidirectional Stiffness Prepared via Multimaterial Additive Manufacturing

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) has become a significant public health issue worldwide. This can result in loss of spinal function affecting patient health and quality of life. Artificial total disc replacement (A-TDR) is an effective approach for treating symptomatic DDD that compensates for lost functionality and helps patients perform daily activities. However, because current A-TDR devices lack the unique structure and material characteristics of natural intervertebral discs (IVDs), they fail to replicate the multidirectional stiffness needed to match physiological motions and characterize anisotropic behavior. It is still unclear how the multidirectional stiffness of the disc is affected by structural parameters and material characteristics. Herein, a bioinspired intervertebral disc (BIVD-L) based on a representative human lumbar segment is developed. The proposed BIVD-L reproduces the multidirectional stiffness needed for the most common physiological kinematic behaviors. The results demonstrate that the multidirectional stiffness of the BIVD-L can be regulated by structural and material parameters. The results of this research deepen knowledge of the biomechanical behavior of the human lumbar disc and may provide new inspirations for the design and fabrication of A-TDR devices for both engineering and functional applications.     

Can twice weekly hemodialysis expand patient access under resource constraints?

The convention of prescribing hemodialysis on a thrice weekly schedule began empirically when it seemed that this frequency was convenient and likely to treat symptoms for a majority of patients. Later, when urea was identified as the main target and marker of clearance, studies supported the prevailing notion that thrice weekly dialysis provided appropriate clearance of urea. Today, national guidelines on hemodialysis from most countries recommend patients receive at least thrice weekly therapy. However, resource constraints in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMIC) have resulted in a substantial proportion of patients using less frequent hemodialysis in these settings. Observational studies of patients on twice weekly dialysis show that twice weekly therapy has noninferior survival rates compared with thrice weekly therapy. In fact, models of urea clearance also show that twice weekly therapy can meet urea clearance “targets” if patients have significant residual function or if they follow a protein‐restricted diet, as may be common in LMIC. Greater reliance on twice weekly therapy, at least at the start of hemodialysis, therefore has potential to reduce health care costs and increase access to renal replacement therapy in low‐resource settings; however, randomized control trials are needed to better understand long‐term outcomes of twice versus thrice weekly therapy.

一种互联网海量情报规则优化方法

现在很多部门都需要通过规则处理海量情报数据,规则的数量一旦达到海量级规模,对规则的处理技术的要求将会变得越来越高,海量规则的优化将是一个十分重要的问题.文中展示了一种海量规则的优化方法.若两个规则网最后的计算结果是一样的,则可以认为这两个规则网是等价的.基于该等价规则模块的变换可以将代价小的规则模块替换掉代价大的规则模块,从而以后可以选择一种代价最小的规则模块.本文提出规则网模块等价替换的5种优化方法,并对其做了相应的证明.通过优化,可以使得海量规则网处于计算代价尽量最小状态,以此减少处理机的计算工作量.分析表明,通过等价规则替换,可以大大提高规则处理效率.

随着近年来空间数据库研究和应用的不断深入,针对空间数据库中数据组织和查询的特征来设计缓存页面替换策略成为一个新的研究问题.Voronoi图是一种重要的空间数据库组织技术,在处理kNN查询时具有非常好的性能.针对Voronoi图组织的空间数据库,首先利用空间局部性提出了一种基于欧氏距离的替换策略,在发生页面失效时选择距离上一次访问页面欧氏距离最远的页面进行替换;进一步,针对不同kNN查询的搜索空间大小差异非常大的特点,在LIRS替换策略基础上提出一种自适应替换策略,通过对HIR页面占缓存比例自动调整来适应不同的查询.综合两者,形成基于欧氏距离的自适应缓存页面替换算法AELIRS.大量实验表明,在缓存大小与搜索空间大范围变动中,AELIRS始终优于其他替换策略.

Optimization of multi-task turning operations under minimal tool waste consideration

Most of the literatures on machining economics problems tend to focus on single cutting operations. However, in reality most parts that need to be machined require more than one operation. In addition, machining technology has been developed to the point that a single computer numerical control (CNC) machine is capable of performing multiple operations, even simultaneously, employing multiple spindles and cutting tools. When several operations are performed on a CNC turning machine, various tools are required for the cutting operations. Determining the life of these cutting tools under different machining conditions is an arduous task for the operators. They usually replace the tools based on their experience or according to the specific cutting tool handbook. Frequent tool replacements may result in wasted tools and tool utilization, while infrequent tool replacements may result in poorly machined parts. In this study we propose a mathematical model in which several different turning operations (turning, drilling, and parting) with proper constraints are performed. The issue of tool replacement is taken into account in the proposed cutting model. In addition, an evolutionary strategy (ES)-based optimization approach is developed to optimize the cutting conditions of the multiple turning-related operations while taking into account the minimizing unit cost criteria under the economical tool replacement strategy.
