Shaftless propulsion technology delivers high efficiency and low noise for subsea installations and marine vessels. To enhance thrust performance, the streamlined aft-body contour imposes stringent demands on geometric compatibility between the rim-driven thruster (RDT) motor and hull. This necessitates advanced electromagnetic characterization of conical motors. This paper proposes an equivalent magnetic circuit model (EMCM) that accounts for end effects and magnetic saturation in both the stator and rotor cores for the magnetic field analysis of conical permanent magnet synchronous motor (CPMSM). A 3D EMCM is developed by decomposing the air-gap flux into radial/axial/tangential components. End-field nonlinearities are addressed via lumped-parameter network modeling. Innovatively, a trapezoidal expanded magnet layout and magnet-pole-trimming technology are adopted to ensure sinusoidal flux distribution. Finally, a 10.5 kW prototype with a conical angle of 6.7 degrees is designed using the EMCM and verified through a finite-element analysis (FEA) and experiments. This research provides a theoretical framework for the rapid electromagnetic analysis of the CPMSM.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia with multiple clinical manifestations and complications, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, retinal impairment, and peripheral neuropathy. Continuous and minimally invasive glucose monitoring is essential for effective DM management. Microneedles (MNs)-based sensing platforms offer a promising solution; however, conventional polymeric MNs suffer from limited electrochemical sensitivity due to their insufficient electroactive surface area and inefficient loading of catalytic and enzymatic components.

This study aimed to evaluate the near-cortical over-drilling technique on the mechanical behaviour of bone-plate constructs in a rabbit transverse femoral fracture. In vitro biomechanical testing and finite element (FE) models were used for analyses. Rabbits' bones (n = 14) were divided into two groups: G1 - without near-cortical over-drilling, and G2 - with near-cortical over-drilling.

Introduction: Screw loosening remains a frequent mechanical complication in implant-supported prostheses, primarily caused by the gradual loss of abutment-screw preload. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical performance of CAD-CAM custom and stock abutments by measuring removal torque values (RTV) at multiple time points and assessing surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), following prolonged loading up to 2 × 10 cycles.
Methods: Forty-four implant-abutment assemblies with an internal conical-hex connection were divided into two groups: Stock abutments (SA) and custom abutments (CA).
