Experimental investigations on the drilling parameters to minimize delamination and taperness of hybrid GFRP/Al2O3 composites by using ANOVA approach
Authors: Mahesh Gadhamsetty Guru , Kandasamy Jayakrishna 
Published: November 2021

Purpose
Drilling holes in composite materials is a complex and challenging process because of their intrinsic anisotropic characteristics and unevenness compared to conventional metals. Hybridization of composites enhances the strength and hardness of the material but makes it more difficult to drill a hole in it. The purpose of this study is to optimize the drilling to minimize the delamination and taperness of hybrid glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP)/Al2O3 composites.

Design/methodology/approach
The present study investigates the impact of drilling parameters on delamination of the drilled hole and the taperness of the hole on hybrid GFRP/Al2O3. Optimum drilling conditions for minimizing delamination and taperness of the hole are determined to enhance the hole quality. Feed (f), speed (N) and drill diameter (D) are the parameters taken into consideration for drilling operation. By applying Taguchi’s signal-to-noise ratio analysis, process parameters have been optimized to reduce the delamination and taperness of holes on Hybrid GFRP/Al2O3 composites. The effect of process parameters was analyzed using the analysis of variance method.

Findings
The investigational results confirmed that the delamination is positively affected by speed, drill diameter and feed rate. Also, the taperness of the hole is positively affected by the drill diameter. Regression-based models were developed to predict the delamination and taperness of the hole matched with the experimental results, which are attained with an order of 95% and 97%.

Originality/value
Minimum delamination was found at the optimum condition of drill diameter 10 mm, feed at 0.225 mm/rev and the speed at 151 rpm and minimum taperness were found at the optimum condition of drill diameter 10 mm, feed at level 0.3 mm/rev and speed at 86 rpm for hybrid laminate composite (S-glass+ GFRP/Al2O3) were evaluated.

Published: November 2021

AbstractThe present study aimed to explore the short term effects of a social media‐based intervention on the physical and mental health of the software professionals working remotely during the pandemic. Sixty software professionals with poor physical and mental health were randomised to Facebook‐based intervention (FIIT) and a control (CONT) group for 2 months. Forty‐six remote workers (26.25 ± 3.49 years) completed the study (FIIT = 22; CONT = 26). All the respondents had the median sitting time (7.07 ± 2.30 h/day) during office hours on workdays. We found a significant difference in the sitting time during office hours in workday within the subjects (F1,46 = 4.66; p < .004; ηp2 = .048) and between the subjects (F1,46 = 3.81; p < .004; ηp2 = .040). Post hoc analysis revealed participants in the FIIT group reduced their sitting time by 58 min during office hours during a typical workday compared with the control group. Nevertheless, we found a significant difference in the scores of stress, anxiety and depression within and between the groups. Short‐term social media‐based physical and mental health intervention may improve physical and mental health scores in the desk‐based office workers working remotely.

AbstractPurposeTo analyze the sinus membrane perforation (SMP) rate and its potential risk factors during lateral window maxillary sinus floor elevation (LSFE).Materials and methodsFor patients with LSFEs at Department of Implantology, Stomatology Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang Universitiy during January 2014 to December 2020, patient‐related risk factors (age/sex/smoking habit), surgery‐related risk factors (operator experiment/number of tooth units/technique of osteotomy/surgical approach), and maxillary sinus‐related risk factors (residual bone height/sinus membrane thickness/lateral wall thickness/maxillary sinus contours/presence of septa/blood vessels at the lateral maxillary sinus wall) were compared between perforated and nonperforated sites and were evaluated for their influence affecting SMP.ResultsThe study sample comprised 278 LSFE procedures in 278 patients; a total of 47 LSFE procedures (16.91%) presented SMP. Four significant factors were identified: smoking habit (p < 0.001), thin (≤1.5 mm) sinus membrane (p = 0.027), maxillary sinus contours (p < 0.001), and presence of septa (p = 0.001). The SMP rate of irregular, narrow tapered, and tapering sinus contours was significantly higher than that of ovoid and square one (p < 0.05).ConclusionIn general, smoking habit, thin sinus membrane, irregular, narrow tapered, and tapering sinus contours, and presence of septa may increase the risk of SMP during LSFE.

AbstractThe sexually dimorphic dynastine centaurus beetle, genus Augosoma (Coleoptera: Scarabeidae), is endemic to tropical Africa where two species are found (A. centaurus and A. hippocrates). These beetles are consumed by rural populations, cause damage in plantations and are targets of insect collectors and traders. We present information on size differences and analyzed intersexual niche divergence and seasonality of A. centaurus in seven study sites in three West African countries (Ivory Coast, Togo and Nigeria). We recorded 711 light‐attracted and/or opportunistically encountered individuals, as well as another 97 beetles in standardized transect surveys. In the latter, we found the adult sex ratio was equal, but was significantly skewed towards females in light‐attracted and/or opportunistically encountered individuals. In a sample of 298 adult beetles, males were significantly larger than females, with almost no size overlap between sexes. Beetle activity was highly seasonal with most animals observed in November, active from 19:00 h to 24:00 h. Differences in habitat use were not significant between sexes, with most individuals observed in secondary forest. Males were found higher on vegetation than females and beetles of both sexes were found on Pandanus and raffia palms. Beetles were larger in sites with more vegetation cover, and there was a significant effect of tree species on body size of both sexes. Study area or country had no effect on any of the studied parameters. Our study confirms that transect surveys without light trapping can be an effective tool for understanding large‐sized tropical beetles of similar ecological characteristics.

AbstractChronic wounds are a challenging medical entity for patients, medical professionals and healthcare systems. Frequently, patients present themselves to wound specialists after months or even years of unsuccessful treatment. Recent developments have resulted in a multitude of different advanced wound dressings created to treat complex, chronic wounds, one of which is the polylactide dressing Suprathel. This study aimed at investigating the healing potential of Suprathel in chronic wounds and differentiating between old and “young”, diabetic and non‐diabetic chronic wounds. A prospective, multicentric, non‐controlled intervention study was conducted, treating patients with chronic lower leg ulcers (>3 months) with Suprathel and assessing them weekly. Afterwards, a retrospective analysis was performed analysing the wound size initially, after 4 and after 8 weeks of treatment. Furthermore, a differentiation between diabetic and non‐diabetic, and chronic wounds older and younger than 12 months, was assessed. A significant reduction in wound size was observed in the study population after 8 weeks of treatment. The effect size in the diabetic wound and the old chronic wound group even reached more than one, with the other groups still showing a large effect of the intervention. This study shows that Suprathel is a valuable tool in the armamentarium of a wound specialist. Not only could we show a positive effect on chronic wounds, we could even demonstrate a significant wound size reduction in chronic wounds of old and young, as well as diabetic wounds, with the treatment of older chronic and diabetic wounds yielding an even larger effect size. Further randomised, controlled studies are necessary to show the full potential of advanced wound dressing materials in large patient cohorts.

Published: November 2021

AbstractThe relationship between conventional lipid parameters and arterial stiffness (AS) has been verified by previous studies. However, it remains unknown whether non‐conventional lipid parameters have certain predictive effect on AS represented by brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). Therefore, the study was to explore the relationship between remnant cholesterol (RC) and other non‐conventional lipid parameters and AS in the general population free from cardiovascular disease. The study included 912 participants aged 24–84 years from a medical health checkup center of Murakami Memorial Hospital. Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to examine the association between non‐conventional lipid parameters and AS. The results showed that compared with non‐AS group, the AS group had higher RC, non‐high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (Non‐HDL‐C), atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), lipoprotein combine index (LCI), atherosclerosis index (AI), triglycerides/HDL‐C (TG/HDL‐C), Castelli's risk index I (CRI‐I) and Castelli's risk index II (CRI‐II). Then, the authors divided participants into two groups by the optimal cutoff point of 23.6 of RC determined by Youden index. The baPWV was significantly higher in higher RC group compared with lower RC group, and RC was positively correlated with baPWV. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, regarding lower RC as reference, higher RC was independently associated with higher risk of AS, independent of other risk factors (OR = 1.794, 95% CI: 1.267‐2.539, p = .001). The area under the curve of AS predicted by RC was higher than that of other non‐conventional lipid parameters (almost all p < .05). The findings indicated that increased RC was a significant predictor of AS.
The COVID‐19 pandemic: Analysing nursing risk, care and careerscapes
Authors: Thompson Lee , Bidwell Susan , Seaton Philippa 
Published: November 2021

AbstractThis qualitative study explores how junior nurses, and some who were still in training, navigated the complexities and uncertainties engendered by the COVID‐19 pandemic. Data are drawn from in‐depth interviews with 18 students/nurses in Christchurch, New Zealand. Managing intertwining risk, care and careerscapes takes an intensified form as existing infection control rules, established norms of care, boundaries between home and work and expected career trajectories roil. ‘Safe’ and ‘risky’ spaces are porous but maintained using contextual, critical, clinical judgement. Carescapes are stretched, both within and beyond the walls of healthcare settings. Within the COVID‐19 riskscape, careerscapes are open to both threat and opportunity. Countries demand much of their healthcare staff in times of heath crises, but have a limited appreciation of what it takes to translate seemingly tightly bounded protocols into effective practice. The labour required in this work of translation is navigated moment by moment. To surface some of this invisible work, those implementing pandemic plans may need to more carefully consider how to incorporate attention to the work/home/public boundary as well as overtly acknowledging the invisible emotional, physical and intellectual labour carried out in crisis risk, care and careerscapes.

Published: November 2021

AbstractStress is a cardiovascular disease risk factor, and resilience may serve as a buffer for stress. Little is known about stress and resilience among rural women.Objective: The purposes of this study were to identify profiles of rural women based upon indicators of psychosocial and environmental stress and to examine the relationships between the identified profiles and resilience.Design and sample: A cross‐sectional, descriptive design was used to explore stress, social support, and resilience among a representative sample of women (n = 354).Measures: Data were collected to measure perceived stress, social support, chronic stress, and resilience.Results: A latent profile analysis identified three profiles (59.9% Low Stress, 25.4% Moderate Stress, and 14.7% High Stress). Women in the High Stress profile were less likely to afford necessities and have attended college and more likely to be employed. Women in the Low Stress profile had the highest scores for all five resilience subscales.Conclusion: The current study demonstrates the social and environmental impact of stress and how this stress can manifest differently for different women. Underserved women may benefit from strategies that reduce stress and improve social support and resilience. Future research is needed for advancing health equity in rural populations.

Published: November 2021

AbstractBackgroundHumans can recognize the physical properties of objects by touching them, even when vision is unavailable. Tactile perception is important for humans in interacting with the environment. The triangular ridged textures are usually added to surface to improve the grip reliability of products, but the sharp edge of triangular ridge induces sharp and uncomfortable feeling.Materials and methodsTo study the effect of the edge shape of triangular ridged texture on brain activity, functional magnetic resonance imaging technique was used to obtain the blood oxygen level‐dependent (BOLD) signal of subjects during the touching of textured surfaces. Samples with sharp, round, and flat shape ridged textures were chosen as the tactile stimulus.ResultsThe contralateral postcentral gyrus, the precentral gyrus, the inferior parietal lobule, and the supramarginal gyrus, corresponding with the functional regions of the primary somatosensory cortex (SI), the secondary somatosensory cortex (SII), and the primary motor cortex (MI) were related to the perception of three shape ridged textures. The main brain activation located in the postcentral gyrus and the SI. The tactile information of three shape ridged textures was received by Brodmann area (BA) 3 of the SI, and then inputted to BA 2 of the SI, the further tactile discrimination of shape of ridged textures was involved in BA40 of the SII. The intensity, the areas, and the percent signal change (PSC) of brain activation that were evoked by different shape ridged textures were related to the geometric structures of the ridged textures. The more complex the geometric structures of texture are, the larger the intensity, the area, and the PSC in brain activation are. The negative BOLD responses of the ipsilateral sensory cortex that were evoked by the flat ridged texture indicated the ipsilateral neuronal inhibition within the sensory systems. The bilateral precuneus, the superior parietal gyrus, and the inferior parietal gyrus, corresponding with the functional areas of the SII (BA40) and the SSA(BA7), were involved in the tactile discriminate of the differences in shapes of ridged textures. The differences in brain activation were related to the differences in geometric structures of the ridged texture. The larger the differences in geometric structure of texture are, the larger the differences in brain activation are. This study revealed the activated location of brain related to the tactile stimulation of different edge shape of ridged textures and the relationship between the geometric structures of ridged texture and brain activities. This research contributes to optimize surface tactile characteristics on products, especially effective surface textures design for good grip.
Parameterizing the Effects of Tumor Shape in Magnetic Nanoparticle Thermotherapy Through a Computational Approach
Authors: Singh Amritpal , Kumar Neeraj 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
In this work, effects of tumor shape on magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia (MNPH) are investigated and evaluated using four categories (spherical, oblate, prolate, and egg-shape) of tumor models having different morphologies. These tumors have equal volume; however, due to the differences in their shapes, they have different surface areas. The shape of tumors is quantified in terms of shape factor (ζ). Simulations for MNPH are done on the physical model constituting tumor tissue enclosed within the healthy tissue. Magnetic hyperthermia is applied (frequency 150 kHz, and magnetic field amplitude 20.5 kA/m) to all tumor models, for 1 h, after injection of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) at the respective tumor centroids. The distribution of MNPs after injection is considered Gaussian. The governing model (Pennes' bioheat model) of heat transfer in biological media is solved with the finite volume-immersed boundary (FV-IB) method to simulate MNPH. Therapeutic effects are calculated using the Arrhenius tissue damage model, cumulative equivalent minutes at 43 °C (CEM 43), and heterogeneity in temperature profiles of the tumors. Results show that the therapeutic effects of MNPH depend significantly on the shape of a tumor. Tumors with higher shape factors receive less therapeutic effects in comparison to the tumors having lower shape factors. An empirical thermal damage model is also developed to assess the MNPH efficacy in real complex-shaped tumors.
A Dispatch Optimization Model for Hybrid Renewable and Battery Systems Incorporating a Battery Degradation Model
Authors: Upadhya Sahana , Wagner Michael J. 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
A recent increase in the integration of renewable energy systems in existing power grids along with a lack of integrated dispatch models has led to waste in power produced. This paper presents a mixed-integer nonlinear optimization model for hybrid renewable-generator-plus-battery systems, with the objective of maximizing long-term profit. Prior studies have revealed that both high and low state of charge (SOC) of the battery is detrimental to its lifetime and results in reduced battery capacity over time. In addition, increased number of cycles of charge and discharge also causes capacity reduction. This paper models these two factors with a constraint relating capacity loss to the SOC and number of cycles completed by the battery. Loss in capacity is penalized in the objective function of the optimization model, thereby disincentivizing high and low SOCs and frequent cycling. A rolling time horizon optimization approach is used to overcome the computational difficulties of achieving global optimality within a long-term time horizon. By incorporating battery degradation, the model is capable of maximizing the profits from the power dispatch to the grid while also maximizing the life of the battery. This paper exercises the model within a case study using a sample photovoltaic system generation time series that considers multiple battery capacities. The results indicate that the optimal battery lifetime is extended in comparison to conventional models that ignore battery degradation in dispatch decisions. Finally, we analyze the relationship between battery operational decisions and the resultant capacity fade.
