Article Abstract

This paper proposes a novel automatic recognition method for distinguishing voids and severe loosening in road structures based on features of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) B-scan images. By analyzing differences in image texture, the intensity and clarity of top reflection interfaces, and the regularity of internal waveforms, a set of discriminative features is constructed. Based on these features, we develop the FKS-GPR dataset, a high-quality, manually annotated GPR dataset collected from real road environments, covering diverse and complex background conditions. Compared to datasets based on simulations, FKS-GPR offers higher practical relevance. An improved ACF-YOLO network is then designed for automatic detection, and the experimental results show that the proposed method achieves superior accuracy and robustness, validating its effectiveness and engineering applicability.

ObjectiveTo compare osseous regeneration efficacy of allogeneic bone versus bone-induced calcium phosphate biomaterial (biological artificial material induced artificial bone, BAM-induced artificial bone) in treating tibial infected bone defects.MethodsThis study was a prospective study that enrolled participants hospitalized at Sichuan Orthopedic Hospital for tibial osteomyelitis. These subjects had undergone osteomyelitis surgery and presented with bone defects requiring bone grafting under controlled infection conditions.

Speciation of cesium in a radiocesium-bearing microparticle emitted from Unit 1 during the Fukushima nuclear accident by XANES spectroscopy using transition edge sensor.

The chemical state of radiocesium (RCs) was determined using X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) in fluorescence mode and microbeam X-ray fluorescence (μ-XRF) mapping for the cesium (Cs) incorporated in a radiocesium-bearing silica microparticle (CsMP) that was released during the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in 2011. The sample investigated here was classified as a CsMP emitted from Unit 1 (diameter: approximately 500 µm; Cs weight concentration: approximately 50 µg/g). The Cs Lα emission from this Type-B CsMP with a much lower Cs concentration than those of calcium and titanium was difficult to detect using a silicon drift detector, severely decreasing the signal-to-background ratio of the Cs Lα emission.

Void development is one of the main problems faced by natural fiber polymer composites since it severely affects their physical and mechanical properties. It limits these composites for use in construction, aerospace, automotive and marine uses. Hence, this study takes on this issue by incorporating various nanosized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT), hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN) and Alumina (AlO) nanofillers in epoxy-based Borassus flabellifer fiber (BFF) composites fabricated using the hand layup technique.

Progressive quadriparesis in a young woman due to a spinal perimedullary arteriovenous fistula (PMAVF type IVa) successfully treated with endovascular therapy: A case report.

Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Division of Neurointervention and Endovascular Therapy, Hasanuddin University, Hasanuddin University Hospital/Brain Centre, Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital, Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia.

A perimedullary arteriovenous fistula (PMAVF) is a rare spinal vascular malformation that can lead to progressive neurologic deficits. We report a case of a 23-year-old woman presenting with progressive quadriparesis over 6 months. Initial spinal MRI revealed serpiginous flow voids from the cervical to the lumbar region, indicating abnormal vessels.
