The requirement for higher energy density transmissions (lower weight) in helicopters has led to the development of the split torque gearbox (STG) to replace the traditional planetary gearbox by the drive train designer. This may pose a challenge for the current gear analysis methods used in health and usage monitoring systems (HUMS). Gear analysis uses time synchronous averages to separates in frequency gears that are physically close to a sensor. The effect of a large number of synchronous components (gears or bearing) in close proximity may significantly reduce the fault signal (reduce signal to noise ratio) and therefore reduce the effectiveness of current gear analysis algorithms. In this paper, quantification of condition indicator performance on a split torque gearbox is reported. The vibration signatures are processed through a number of gear analysis algorithms to quantify the gear fault performance. The performance metric is separability.

DETECTION OF SUBCHONDRAL BONE MICROCIRCULATORY PERFUSION IN ADULTS WITH EARLY OSTEONECROSIS OF THE FEMORAL HEAD USING CONTRAST-ENHANCED ULTRASOUND: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY

Meijun Yan, Ruoyu LI, Die Hu, Ping Zhao

Summary: The aim of this study was to assess subchondral bone microcirculation in early osteonecrosis of the femoral head using contrast-enhanced ultrasound and evaluate its correlation with ARCO stage. We found significant differences in CEUS parameters between different ARCO stages, and ARCO stage was correlated with various CEUS parameters. Based on these findings, CEUS could effectively evaluate subchondral bone perfusion and be a potential imaging method for the diagnosis of early osteonecrosis.

An explicit multi-phase field damage model for long fiber-reinforced composites

Xiaocan Zou, Zhonghai Xu, Jin Gao, Shibao Wu, Ruoyu Li, Wenjie Li, Xiaodong He

Summary: In this paper, a novel explicit multi-phase damage model based on the puck failure criterion and explicit dynamics is proposed to predict the progressive failure process of composite laminates. The model introduces a penalty parameter to reformulate the crack surface energy density for different failure modes to ensure reasonable damage prediction results. The model has undergone rigorous algebraic derivation to ensure thermodynamic consistency. The effects of explicit multi-phase field parameters on the damage prediction of composite are investigated by two representative cases, and the results show that the phenomenological failure criteria combined with appropriate explicit multi-phase field parameters can reasonably explain the progressive failure process of composite laminates.

Summary: This study presents the population structure of 551 global C. albicans strains, with 370 strains' antifungal susceptibilities tested. The results show that 66.6% of the azole-nonsusceptible/non-wild-type strains belong to Clade 1. Within Clade 1, two nested subclades (Clade 1-R and Clade 1-R-alpha) exhibit higher azole resistance and are distributed in different cities in China. This study highlights the importance of monitoring the spread of these drug-resistant subclades for public health.

Design of high efficiency cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna based on topological photonic crystals

Yifan Zhou, Ruoyu Li, Pengpeng Jiang, Xiaowei Guo, Shaorong Li

Summary: In the past three decades, various dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs) have been developed for portable wireless communications and millimeter wave systems. However, current feeding methods suffer from radiation leakage and high losses. In this paper, we propose using a topological photonic crystal (TPC) as an effective feeding method, which can effectively suppress the reflecting loss at the feeder/DRA interface. A numerically designed DRA with a TPC feeder operating at 1.5 THz demonstrates a return loss as low as 44 dB, an impedance bandwidth of 3.9%, a maximum gain of 7.4 dBi, and 3dB angular widths of 58 degrees. Over 99% radiation efficiency can be achieved at the operating THz band. The proposed all-dielectric antenna has potential applications in integrated photonic chips, biomedical applications, and 6G.

A nonlinear friction-cohesive model for characterizing mode II fracture of laminated composites

Ruoyu Li, Chaocan Cai, Zhonghai Xu, Xiaocan Zou, Chunxing Hu, Xiaodong He

Summary: In this paper, a nonlinear friction-cohesive model combining sliding friction and interfacial debonding is developed to characterize the mechanical responses of mode II fracture by incorporating Coulomb friction into the exponential cohesive law. After calibrating the parameters with experimental data, this model can simulate the load-displacement curve of ENF test well. A parametric study is also conducted to investigate the effects of interfacial parameters on the load-displacement curves of ENF test. The results show that the proposed model is closer to the experimental data compared to other cohesive models.

Genetically engineered CXCR4-modified exosomes for delivery of miR-126 mimics to macrophages alleviate periodontitis

Haotian Luo, Danying Chen, Ruoyu Li, Runze Li, Yungshan Teng, Yang Cao, Xuenong Zou, Weicai Wang, Chen Zhou

Summary: Biofilm-related diseases are difficult to treat due to their tolerance to antimicrobial chemotherapies. Periodontitis, a chronic biofilm disease induced by dental plaque, provides a good model to study the effects of host factors on the biofilm microenvironment. This study confirmed the reduction of microRNA-126 (miR-126) with the recruitment of macrophages in periodontitis and explored a strategy for targeted delivery of miR-126 to macrophages. Exosomes overexpressing CXCR4 and loaded with miR-126 successfully regulated macrophages and reduced bone resorption and osteoclastogenesis in periodontitis. These findings provide new insights for the treatment of periodontitis and other biofilm-related diseases.
