A novel quantitative diagnosis method for rolling bearing faults based on digital twin model.

Dual-impulse behaviors of rolling bearings have been widely researched for quantitative diagnosis. However, it is challenging to accurately extract entry and exit moments of the fault from noise-contaminated raw signals. To address this issue, a novel quantitative diagnosis method based on digital twin model is proposed to assess the fault severity from the original signal waveform.

Clinical Trial Study Protocol: A Prospective Blinded, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial Protocol to Assess the Efficacy of Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block on Postoperative Analgesia and Recovery Quality in Laparoscopic Donor Hepatectomy.

Introduction: Liver transplantation is considered an effective treatment for end-stage liver disease. Laparoscopic donor hepatectomy (LDH) has become a new standard procedure. And it is important to minimize the pain of the donor.

CTNet: A data-driven time-frequency technique for wind turbines fault diagnosis under time-varying speeds.

Nonstationary fault signals collected from wind turbine planetary gearboxes and bearings often exhibit close-spaced instantaneous frequencies (IFs), or even crossed IFs, bringing challenges for existing time-frequency analysis (TFA) methods. To address the issue, a data-driven TFA technique, termed CTNet is developed. The CTNet is a novel model that combines a fully convolutional auto-encoder network with the convolutional block attention module (CBAM).

[Effects of Dexmedetomidine on the Recovery Quality of Donors Undergoing Pure Laparoscopic Donor Hepatectomy].

Objective: To investigate the effects of intraoperative intravenous administration of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on the recovery quality of donors undergoing pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy.

Methods: A total of 56 liver donors who were going to undergo scheduled pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy were enrolled and randomly assigned to two groups, a DEX group ( =28) and a control group ( =28). Donors in the DEX group received DEX infusion at a dose of 1 μg/kg over 15 minutes through a continuous pump, which was followed by DEX at 0.

Genome sequencing of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides ES026 reveals plausible pathway of HupA.

Background: Colletotrichum gloeosporioides ES026, isolated as an endophytic fungal strain, was found to produce the important medicinal compound HuperzineA (HupA). In a genetic context, ES026 showed potential in elucidating the biosynthetic pathway of HupA.

Methods And Results: The ES026 strain was sequenced using de-novo Illumina sequencing methods in this study.

Effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury in pediatric living-related liver transplantation: A propensity score matching analysis.

Background: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is largely unavoidable during liver transplantation (LT). Dexmedetomidine (DEX), an 2-adrenergic agonist, exerts a variety of organ-protective effects in pediatric populations. However, evidence remains relatively limited about its hepatoprotective effects in pediatric living-related LT.

Intraoperative Low-Dose Dexmedetomidine Administration Associated with Reduced Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Pediatric Deceased Liver Transplantation: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine (DEX) attenuates hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) in adult liver transplantation (LT), but its effects on postoperative liver graft function in pediatric LT remain unclear. We sought to investigate whether intraoperative DEX administration was associated with improved liver graft function in pediatric LT recipients. It was hypothesized that DEX administration was associated with reduced HIRI and improved liver graft function.

Endophytic Fungal Community of : Diversity and Relevance to the Production of Huperzine A by the Plant Host.

As the population ages globally, there seem to be more people with Alzheimer's disease. Unfortunately, there is currently no specific treatment for the disease. At present, Huperzine A (HupA) is one of the best drugs used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and has been used in clinical trials for several years in China.

Quantitative and Localization Fault Diagnosis Method of Rolling Bearing Based on Quantitative Mapping Model.

Aiming to solve the problem of accurate diagnosis of the size and location of rolling bearing faults, a novel quantitative and localization fault diagnosis method of the rolling bearing is proposed based on the quantitative mapping model (QMM). The fault size and location of the rolling bearing affect the impulse type and the modulation degree of the vibration signal, which subsequently changes the complexity and randomness of the time-domain distribution of the vibration signal. According to the relationship between the multiscale permutation entropy (MPE) of the vibration signal and rolling bearing fault size, an average MPE (A-MPE) index is proposed to establish linear and nonlinear QMMs through the regression function.

Sensor-based vibration signal feature extraction using an improved composite dictionary matching pursuit algorithm.

This paper presents a new method for a composite dictionary matching pursuit algorithm, which is applied to vibration sensor signal feature extraction and fault diagnosis of a gearbox. Three advantages are highlighted in the new method. First, the composite dictionary in the algorithm has been changed from multi-atom matching to single-atom matching.

Application of composite dictionary multi-atom matching in gear fault diagnosis.

The sparse decomposition based on matching pursuit is an adaptive sparse expression method for signals. This paper proposes an idea concerning a composite dictionary multi-atom matching decomposition and reconstruction algorithm, and the introduction of threshold de-noising in the reconstruction algorithm. Based on the structural characteristics of gear fault signals, a composite dictionary combining the impulse time-frequency dictionary and the Fourier dictionary was constituted, and a genetic algorithm was applied to search for the best matching atom.
