The Linear IFMIF (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility) Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) is aiming at demonstrating the low energy section of a 40 MeV/125 mA IFMIF deuteron accelerator up to 9 MeV with a full beam current in cw operation. For such a high-power beam, the LIPAc injector is required to produce a 100 keV D beam with 140 mA and match it for injection into the Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator. The injector is designed by CEA-Saclay based on the high intensity light ion source (SILHI). In 2019, the commissioning of the RFQ to demonstrate the D beam acceleration at a low duty cycle (0.1%) was conducted. A nominal beam current of 125 mA D beam was accelerated up to 5 MeV through the RFQ successfully. The LIPAc injector fully satisfied the requirements for RFQ beam commissioning at the pulse mode.

A two-degree-of-freedom bistable energy harvester with a spring-magnet oscillator designed for ultra-low frequency vibration energy harvesting is presented in this paper. It combines magnetic plucking frequency upconversion and a variable potential function to achieve a high-efficiency response while also being suitably installed for applications with spatial limitations. A lumped parameter model of the piezoelectric energy harvester and the magnetic dipoles is applied to develop the theoretical model for the system.

This paper focuses on the theoretical and analytical modeling of a novel seismic isolator termed the Passive Friction Mechanical Metamaterial Seismic Isolator (PFSMBI) system, which is designed for seismic hazard mitigation in multi-story buildings. The PFSMBI system consists of a lattice structure composed of a series of identical small cells interconnected by layers made of viscoelastic materials. The main function of the lattice is to shift the fundamental natural frequency of the building away from the dominant frequency of earthquake excitations by creating low-frequency bandgaps (FBGs) below 20 Hz.

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence is transforming the computer-aided design of microfluidic chips. As a key component, microfluidic mixers are widely used in bioengineering, chemical experiments, and medical diagnostics due to their efficient mixing capabilities. Traditionally, the simulation of these mixers relies on the finite element method (FEM), which, although effective, presents challenges due to its computational complexity and time-consuming nature.

Based on a prototype of the Beijing subway tunnel, this research conducts large-scale model experiments to systematically investigate the vibration response patterns of tunnels with different damage levels under the influence of measured train loads. Initially, the polynomial fitting modal identification method (Levy) and the model test preparation process are introduced. Then, using time-domain peak acceleration, frequency response function, frequency-domain modal frequency, and modal shape indicators, a detailed analysis of the tunnel's dynamic response is conducted.

Background: Stationary cycling is recommended for post-stroke rehabilitation. This study assessed neuro-biomechanical outcomes of forward and backward cycling in three different modes: free-pedalling, constant speed (30 RPM) and constant resistance (5 or 10 Nm) in healthy controls and individuals after stroke.
Methods: Ten individuals after stroke and 10 healthy controls performed 60s cycling trials in different directions and modes on a semi-recumbent bike prototype.
