Article Abstract

Several million individuals with cleft lip and palate (CLP) exist in China, and it is estimated that at least 30,000 newborns with CLP are born every year. How to give them an optimal treatment with excellence is still a problem in most areas. The treatment of cleft patients presents various situations around world that are different from those in the United States and Europe. In this article, we reviewed the current status of CLP management in our country and shared our experience from one of the biggest CLP centers in China. We hope the management of cleft can be improved, and more patients can be treated by dedicated teams and dedicated centers in China.

Two-point contact is one of the fundamental problems of wheel-rail contact in switch area. The contact state and the distribution of forces are complex and essential points in wheel-rail relationship. Given the problem that the current dynamic wheel-rail contact state is challenging to detect, a theory to detect the two-point contact state of the wheel-rail in switch area using a discrete gauge column was presented and proved in the finite element model.
