Blood oxygenation monitoring using hyperspectral imaging after flap surgery

In this paper, we present a new method for the assessment of skin flap perfusion based on the non-invasive monitoring of skin blood oxygenation using hyperspectral imaging. This method consists of generation of oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin maps in skin flap from hyperspectral image using an analytic model based on Beer–Lambert law. The results obtained on a fasciocutaneous sural flap have revealed that the oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin maps facilitate the visualization of some differences between different areas of the flap, an aspect that clinical examination fails to do. In conclusion, the proposed method could provide a new option for a more accurate assessment of flap survival.     

Three-step approach for prediction of limit cycle pressure oscillations in combustion chambers of gas turbines

Currently, gas turbine manufacturers frequently face the problem of strong acoustic combustion driven oscillations inside combustion chambers. These combustion instabilities can cause extensive wear and sometimes even catastrophic damages to combustion hardware. This requires prevention of combustion instabilities, which, in turn, requires reliable and fast predictive tools. This work presents a three-step method to find stability margins within which gas turbines can be operated without going into self-excited pressure oscillations. As a first step, a set of unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes simulations with the Flame Speed Closure (FSC) model implemented in the OpenFOAM® environment are performed to obtain the flame describing function of the combustor set-up. The standard FSC model is extended in this work to take into account the combined effect of strain and heat losses on the flame. As a second step, a linear three-time-lag-distributed model for a perfectly premixed swirl-stabilized flame is extended to the nonlinear regime. The factors causing changes in the model parameters when applying high-amplitude velocity perturbations are analysed. As a third step, time-domain simulations employing a low-order network model implemented in Simulink® are performed. In this work, the proposed method is applied to a laboratory test rig. The proposed method permits not only the unsteady frequencies of acoustic oscillations to be computed, but the amplitudes of such oscillations as well. Knowing the amplitudes of unstable pressure oscillations, it is possible to determine how these oscillations are harmful to the combustor equipment. The proposed method has a low cost because it does not require any license for computational fluid dynamics software.

基于线性方程组数学分离模型建立在线过程检测复方缬沙坦氢氯噻嗪片溶出度方法。分别扫描缬沙坦和氢氯噻嗪的紫外吸收光谱,两组分在最大吸收波长处完全重叠。根据朗伯比尔定律吸光度加和性原理,分别测定两组分在最大吸收波长处的吸光系数,建立线性方程组数学分离模型,采用光纤传感过程分析技术(FODT)检测缬沙坦氢氯噻嗪片的溶出度,并与HPLC法相比较。在规定的溶出介质中,两种成分同时实时测定,并且FODT累积溶出度与HPLC法相比较结果无显著性差异(p>0.05)。不同批次药物的溶出行为一致,说明制剂工艺稳定,均匀度好。溶出曲线显示缬沙坦溶出快于并高于氢氯噻嗪,且30 min时两组分的溶出度均大于80%符合美国药典规定。结果表明,应用线性方程组数学分离模型结合FODT法可实现复方缬沙坦氢氯噻嗪片中双组分溶出度的同时检测,并可提供双组分的溶出过程曲线和全部溶出数据,直观反映各组分在各溶出时段的快慢,为此药建立标准提供依据。与HPLC法单点数据相比优势明显,更有利于药品评价和抽验质量分析。

铁电液晶光寻址空间光调制器性能分析

针对氢化非晶硅/铝/铁电液晶结构的光寻址空间光调制器（OASLM）,依据其等效电路模型,利用Pspice和Matlab软件对其分辨率、响应速度、对比度及灰度响应等性能进行了分析。结果表明:在铁电液晶（FLC）层厚度一定的情况下,减小光敏感层（a-Si:H层）的厚度可以提高FLC-OASLM的调制传递函数,从而提高分辨率;在其他参量一定的情况下,FLC-OASLM的响应速度随写入光光强增大而增大（写入光从0.08 mW/cm2增大到10 mW/cm2,延迟时间减小110 s,上升时间减小154 s）,随擦除光光强增大而减小（擦除光从0增大到1 mW/cm2,延迟时间增大41 s,上升时间仅增加3 s）;FLC-OASLM的对比度随控制光光强增大而增大,最终趋于一个稳定值21∶1;在其他参量不变时,随着擦除光光强的增大,输出光响应呈现等级下降,且发现当擦除光光强达到一定值（3 mW/cm2）后,擦除光的改变主要影响下降时间而对上升时间几乎无影响;合理设计激励源信号波形,可以得到超过十级灰度输出,表明擦除光具有实现FLC OASLM的灰度响应的功能。     

Coherent incoherent transition in the spin boson model with a super-ohmic bath

The temperature effect on tunnelling splitting in the spin--boson model with a super-ohmic bath is studied by the small polaron theory. The coherent--incoherent transition temperature is calculated and its dependence on dissipation strength and bare tunnelling splitting is analysed. In additional to the traditional transition point described in textbooks, a new kind of transition is found in the low dissipation region, showing different temperature dependence in the transition. The relation to the corresponding transition in the polaron--phonon system is also discussed.     

Magnetic properties of the bond and crystal field dilution spin-3/2 Blume–Capel model in an external magnetic field

Magnetic properties of the bond and crystal field dilution spin-3/2 Blume–Capel model in an external magnetic field (h)$(h)$ on simple cubic lattice are studied by using the effective field theory. In the m−T$m-T$ plane, the degeneracy of the magnetization (m)$(m)$ is affected by the concentration of bond or crystal field dilution at low temperature (T)$(T)$. The magnetization curves can appear to fluctuate in certain regions of negative crystal field. In the m−h$m-h$ plane, the initial magnetization curve has an irregular behavior due to the introduction of bond dilution. The crystal field dilution has the influence on the process of magnetic domain displacement. In the χ−h$\chi -h$ plane, there exists one susceptibility (χ)$(\chi )$ shoulder and one step for different negative crystal field. The susceptibility curve takes on the feature of multi-peaks distribution under bond and crystal field dilution conditions.
