Chain noise is an important factor affecting the ride comfort of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) with chain coupler. The inner meshing profile can effectively reduce the polygonal action, which has already been proved, but its influence on the noise is controversial. In this paper, the basic vibration locus, velocities, and acceleration for HEVs coupler chain are analyzed. Based on a specific example, under the action of the inner meshing profile, the indicators that represent the low, medium and high frequency vibration are proved to be reduced. Based on meshing relations, it is proved that the error of the inner meshing profile will cause the deviation of the chain pitch line and the meshing disorder, which may weaken the influence of inner meshing profile on reducing noise. Through conducting the dynamics simulation and the noise and wear experiment, the results show that the influence of the inner meshing profile on the noise has dual effect, and it can only reduce the noise after running-in. Moreover, under the action of the inner meshing profile, the noise level will be decreased with the increase of running time. This paper not only resolves the controversy but also provides an effective method for chain noise.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to support stroke risk analysis, evaluation of therapy effectiveness, and lesion progression through a comprehensive assessment of carotid atherosclerotic lesions in 3D based on automatic segmentation and visualization of quantitative parameters.
Methods: We propose a novel method for extracting the pathologically thickened regions from 3D vessel wall segmentations using distance encoding on the inner and outer wall mesh to enable atherosclerotic lesion analysis. A case-specific and constant threshold was evaluated and applied to extract lesions from a dataset of 202 T1-weighted black-blood MRI scans of subjects with up to 50% stenosis.

Tension-free synthetic meshes are the clinical standard for hernia repair, but they often trigger immune response-mediated complications such as severe foreign-body reactions (FBR), visceral adhesions, and fibrotic healing, increasing the risk of recurrence. Herein, we developed a hybrid cell membrane coating for macroscale mesh fibers that acts as an immune orchestrator, capable of balancing immune responses with tissue regeneration. Cell membranes derived from red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets (PLTs) were covalently bonded to fiber surfaces using functionalized-liposomes and click chemistry.

Microelectromechanical system-based microphones demand high ingress protection levels with regard to their use in harsh environment. Here, we develop environmental protective components comprising polyimide nanofibers combined onto polyether ether ketone fabric meshes and subsequently appraise their impact on the electroacoustic properties of high signal-to-noise-ratio microelectromechanical system-based microphones via industry-standard characterizations and theoretical simulations. Being placed directly on top of the microphone sound port, the nanofiber mesh die-cut parts with an inner diameter of 1.

The article presents a semi-automatic approach to generating structured hexahedral meshes of patient-specific aortas ailed by aortic dissection. The condition manifests itself as a formation of two blood flow channels in the aorta, as a result of a tear in the inner layers of the aortic wall. Subsequently, the morphology of the aorta is greatly impacted, making the task of domain discretization highly challenging.
