Draw textured yarn (DTY) packages is a significant raw material in manufacturing. Various defects will begenerated on surface during production and transportation, of which hairiness is the most common and intractable defect. Many methods have been applied for fabric surface defect detection, but little research is aimed at DTY packages hairinessdefects. In order to achieve the accuracy of DTY packages hairiness detection in industrial production, a method based onmulti-directional anisotropic Gaussian directional derivatives was proposed to accomplish the DTY packages hairiness defectdetection. Firstly, the original defect images were obtained by a device consisting of plane array light source, camera, andcomputer with image processing algorithm. Secondly, the gradient information of DTY packages images was constructed byanisotropic Gaussian directional derivative to characterize the defect. Then image response maps with all directions werefused to obtain the final response map. After that, a special difference of median (DOM) filter was proposed to removeuseless information. Finally, the segmentation result was obtained by threshold method and morphological processing. Compared with various classical methods, the proposed method obtained the best performance in our evaluation experimentsabout DTY packages hairiness detection.

Yang, Zhijie,Wang, Chun,Zhang, Xia,Li, Jing,Zhang, Ziqi,Tan, Zhao,Wang, Junyi,Zhang, Junyang,Bai, Xiaofeng The Korean Pain Society 2022 The Korean Journal of Pain Vol.35 No.4

Background: The treatment of trigeminal neuralgia remains a challenging issue. Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) provide optimized therapy for chronic pain. This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying the attenuation of trigeminal neuralgia by SHED. Methods: Trigeminal neuralgia was induced by chronic constriction injury of the infraorbital nerve. The mechanical threshold was assessed after model establishment and local SHED transplantation. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) morphology and Caspase12 expression in trigeminal ganglion (TG) was evaluated as well. BiP expression was observed in PC12 cells induced by tunicamycin. Results: The local transplantation of SHED could relieve trigeminal neuralgia in rats. Further, transmission electron microscopy revealed swelling of the ER in rats with trigeminal neuralgia. Moreover, SHED inhibited the tunicamycin-induced up-regulated expression of BiP mRNA and protein in vitro. Additionally, SHED decreased the up-regulated expression of Caspase12 mRNA and protein in the TG of rats caused by trigeminal neuralgia after chronic constriction injury of the infraorbital nerve mode. Conclusions: This findings demonstrated that SHED could alleviate pain by relieving ER stress which provide potential basic evidence for clinical pain treatment.

Junyang Teng,Jianxin Tang,Yuning Zhang,Xinyi Li 대한토목학회 2018 KSCE JOURNAL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING Vol.22 No.9

A laboratory physical simulation and a CT scan test were conducted to analyze the anchoring mechanism of a system anchor bolt and a steel floral pipe in a layered rock mass. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) The anchoring effect of the system anchor bolt and steel floral pipe improves the strength parameter of the layered rock, and the system anchor bolt provides higher improvement. Neglecting the jointing effect, the improvement in the strength parameter of the layered rock due to the anchor bolt is primarily reflected by the following three aspects: the compressive zone effect of the preload, the repairing effect of the anchoring agent on defects in country rocks, and the reinforcement effect of the anchor bolt on the overall strength and density of the anchoring object. Considering the jointing effect, the improvement in the strength parameter of the layered rock due to the anchor bolt is reflected by improvement in the deformability and shear strength of the joint surface. (2) The stress-strain curves of the anchored specimens can be divided into different stages of damage evolution, based on the angles of bedding. (3) The crack-arresting effect of the anchor bolt is due to the weakening, cutting, and arresting of the cracks in the anchorage zone. The larger the anchorage zone, the better is the crack-arresting effect.

Nan Wang,Bo Hu,Junyang Zhang,Jinsong Liu,Xinyu Zhang 보안공학연구지원센터 2015 International Journal of Hybrid Information Techno Vol.8 No.10

A new channel estimation method of neural network based on complex radial basis function (CRBF) is proposed to enhance the anti-interference ability of traditional pilot frequency estimation algorithm in power line communication (PLC). This method builds up a new channel model of complex field signals in PLC. The complete response model was established by using transmitting terminal’s pilot signal as input sample data, pilot signal’s frequency response as output sample data, and pre-setting mean square error (MSE) and diffusion constant. Computer simulations show that compared with the traditional algorithm the channel estimation was more accurate and had lower MSE and bit error rate (BER).

Recently, all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) have attracted increasing interest owing to their higher energy density and safety. As the core material of ASSBs, the characteristics of the solid electrolyte largely determine the performance of the battery. Thus far, a variety of inorganic solid electrolytes have been studied, including the NASICON-type, LISICON-type, perovskite-type, garnet-type, glassy solid electrolyte, and so on. The garnet Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) solid electrolyte is one of the most promising candidates because of its excellent comprehensively electrochemical performance. Both, experiments and theoretical calculations, show that cubic LLZO has high room-temperature ionic conductivity and good chemical stability while contacting with the lithium anode and most of the cathode materials. In this paper, the crystal structure, Li-ion transport mechanism, preparation method, and element doping of LLZO are introduced in detail based on the research progress in recent years. Then, the development prospects and challenges of LLZO as applied to ASSBs are discussed.

Jun Yang,Yan Li,Shubin Jin,Jing Xu,Paul C Wang,Xing-Jie Liang,Xin Zhang 한국생체재료학회 2015 생체재료학회지 Vol.19 No.1

Nucleic acid vaccines have attracted many attentions since they have presented some superiority over traditional vaccines. However, they could only induce moderate immunogenicity. The route and formulation of nucleic acid vaccines have strong effects on the immune response and efficiency. Numerous biomaterials are used as a tool to enhance the immunogenicity of antigens. They deliver the antigens into the cells through particle- and non-particle-mediated pathway. However, challenges remain due to lack of comprehensive understanding of the actions of these biomaterials as a carrier/adjuvant. Herein, this review focuses on the evolution of biomaterials used for nucleic acid vaccines, discusses the advantages and disadvantages for gene delivery and immunostimulation of variety of structures of the biomaterials, in order to provide new thought on rational design of carrier/adjuvant and better understanding of mechanism of action in both immunostimulatory and delivery methods.
