Article Abstract

The high level of stress and dimension deviation induced by glass molding are the main causes of the low yield rate of large, irregular glass components on vehicles. To solve this issue, a numerical model of large glass component molding was established in this study, which aimed to analyze the dominant factors of molding quality and achieve a synergistic balance between quality characteristics and energy consumption. The results show that molding temperature is the dominant factor affecting the energy consumption and residual stress, and the molding pressure is the main factor affecting the dimension deviation. Furthermore, the NSGA-II optimization algorithm was used to optimize the maximum residual stress, dimension deviation, and energy consumption with the numerical results. The combination of a heating rate of 1.95 °C/s, holding time of 158 s, molding temperature of 570 °C, molding pressure of 34 MPa, and cooling rate of 1.15 °C/s was determined to be the optimized scheme. The predictive error of the numerical result, based on the optimized scheme, was experimentally verified to be less than 20%. It proved the accuracy of the model in this study. These results can provide guidance for the subsequent precision molding of large, irregular glass components.

Background: Ground-glass opacity (GGO) on computed tomography (CT) has been suggested as a potential prognostic factor in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), but its significance in patients with pathological stage IA3 LUAD, particularly in relation to micropapillary (MIP) status, remains unclear. This study addresses the clinical need to stratify patients based on GGO and MIP status to optimize prognosis prediction and follow-up strategies.

Methods: A multicenter retrospective study was conducted on 411 patients with pathological stage IA3 LUAD, enrolled between July 2012 and July 2020.

Validation of T stage classification strategy for >2 cm ground-glass opacity non-small cell lung cancer: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: The Lung Cancer Staging Program of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) has proposed using solid component size, rather than overall tumor size, for T-staging. However, studies focusing on patients with ground-glass opacity (GGO) lesions with a diameter larger than 2 cm are limited. This study aims to validate the T stage classification strategy recommended by IASLC in this specific and less-studied patient group.

This work is focused on the impact of temperature and deformation on the mechanical properties, specifically the elastic modulus () of the amorphous regions in semicrystalline polymers, using polypropylene as a case study. It has been shown that increasing temperature results in an decrease due to the enhanced mobility of polymer chains, triggered by the activation of α relaxation processes within the crystalline component. Consequently, rising temperature reduces the "stiffening" effect of the crystalline regions on the interlamellar layers.

Light manipulation and control are essential in various contemporary technologies, and as these technologies evolve, the demand for miniaturized optical components increases. Planar-lens technologies, such as metasurfaces and diffractive optical elements, have gained attention in recent years for their potential to dramatically reduce the thickness of traditional refractive optical systems. However, their fabrication, particularly for visible wavelengths, involves complex and costly processes, such as high-resolution lithography and dry-etching, which has limited their availability.
