Authors: Wang Leyu , Sun Pan , Liang Yan , Wu Xusheng , Deng Qijun , Rong Enguo 
Published: October 2024

AbstractTo realize high‐power inductive power transfer (IPT) for fast charging of electric vehicles (EVs), an input‐series output‐parallel (ISOP) multi‐channel IPT system is analysed in this paper, and an output control strategy based on single neuron controller is proposed to improve the stability of the system. Firstly, the steady‐state operating conditions of ISOP‐IPT system is analysed based on different compensation networks which shows that the constant‐voltage‐output compensation networks are more suitable for the proposed circuit structure. Then, to improve the voltage equalization between channels, an open‐loop control method combining parameter design and phase‐shift control is proposed against different coil misalignments. At the same time, based on the single neuron controller, the system output closed‐loop control is realized without the need of accurate system modelling. Finally, a three‐channel ISOP‐IPT experimental system was constructed, which operated stably at 2.9 kW with a power efficiency of 93.38%. The system closed‐loop control with control time of 22 ms is realized. The voltage equalization control offset is less than 1%.

Published: October 2024

AbstractDenosumab is a completely human monoclonal high-affinity antibody that binds to
the nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) and is widely used to treat
osteoporosis. Furthermore, it can potentially lower serum calcium levels by
inhibiting osteoclast activation and preventing bone calcium from being released
into the blood. This review aimed to provide evidence of the efficacy and safety
of denosumab in treating hypercalcemia in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).
PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched for published studies that
described denosumab for hypercalcemia management in PHPT. Data were extracted by
two independent investigators and analyzed using SPSS 23. The risk of bias was
assessed by NIH Quality Assessment Tool. In total, 161 patients with PHPT from
18 studies were included in this review. The average age was 61 (47–72) years
and the highest serum calcium was 3.76 (3.11–4.20) mmol/l. We found that
denosumab can effectively reduce the serum calcium level by a median reduction
of 0.5 mmol/l within 3 days. Significant reduction was maintained for 14 days.
The serum calcium-lowering effect weakened after one month. In conclusion,
denosumab has a potential clinical value in treating hypercalcemia in patients
with PHPT.

Abstract
Introduction Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are rare congenital anomalies that involve the anus, rectum, and oftentimes the genitourinary tract. The management of ARM patients is complex, and many controversies exist. To address this issue, the European Reference Network eUROGEN for rare and complex urogenital conditions aimed to develop comprehensive guidelines for the management of ARM.
Methods The Dutch Quality Standard for ARM served as the basis for the development of guidelines applicable on a European level. Literature was searched in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane. The ADAPTE method was utilized to incorporate the newest available evidence. A panel of 15 experts from 7 European countries assessed currency, acceptability, and applicability of recommendations. Recommendations from the Dutch Quality Standard were adapted, adopted, or rejected, and recommendations were formed considering current evidence and/or expert consensus.
Results Prenatal and neonatal diagnostic workup as well as postsurgical follow-up of anorectal, genitourinary tract, and neurologic system were reviewed. Seven new studies were identified. The panel adapted 13 recommendations, adopted 7, and developed 8 de novo. The availability of high-quality evidence was limited, and most recommendations were based on retrospective studies, case series, or expert opinion.
Conclusion Patients with ARM and their families require highly specialized and comprehensive care from the prenatal period to adulthood. This guideline provides recommendations for a comprehensive diagnostic workup of children with ARM throughout their life that is applicable on a European level.

AbstractReproductive counseling is crucial for women's health, especially for those with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which often affects younger patients during their childbearing years. Patients with IBD need special considerations when planning for pregnancy. Preconception counseling is important as it helps patients make informed decisions about pregnancy and allows for optimal management of IBD before, during, and after pregnancy. In this review, we aim to provide guidance for managing and treating patients with IBD throughout the preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum period.

Published: October 2024

We present a thermally tunable microring resonator (MRR) implemented on a Ge-on-insulator (Ge-OI) photonic platform tailored for mid-infrared spectrometer applications. Thanks to the favorable thermo-optic effect of Ge, we characterized the optical and thermal properties of the thermally tunable Ge-OI MRR through rigorous optical and thermal numerical analyses. Building upon the simulation, a ring-shaped Au heater was successfully integrated into the Ge-OI MRR that was fabricated by using a direct wafer bonding process, followed by electron-beam lithography and dry etching techniques. Observations via thermo-reflectance microscopy revealed the temperature change within the Ge induced by heat transfer from the applied bias to the Au heater. Notably, the measured temperature change of 17 K at an applied electrical power of 181.7 mW closely aligned with the simulated values. In optical measurement, the heater-integrated Ge-OI MRR exhibited the tunability of 33.7 nm/W (0.36 nm/K) and the loaded Q factor of 21k at 4.2 µm wavelength with no bias. Hence, our demonstration of the Ge-OI tunable ring filter for mid-IR spectrometers could be a promising technology employing photonic integrated circuits for diverse applications in optical communication and spectral sensing.
A fluid temperature interpolation method for wide temperature range distributed flow calorimeter

Published: October 2024

The distributed flow calorimeter is employed to measure reaction enthalpy, mixing enthalpy, and other thermodynamic parameters of hydrocarbon fuels. This information serves as a foundation for selecting and developing hydrocarbon fuels for hypersonic flight. The fluid temperature in the tube is a key factor in characterizing its thermodynamic behavior. Given the challenges of monitoring fluid temperature within a tube using current flow calorimetry, a distributed method for calculating fluid temperature in tubes under high-temperature conditions is proposed. This method realizes the interpolation of the enthalpy function of the experimental fluid through several sets of experiments with varying power levels. The fluid temperature in the tube is calculated by considering the microelement as the research object. First, the methodology for calculating fluid temperature in narrow pipes across a wide temperature range is presented. Second, the simulation model of the flow calorimeter is established, and the methodology is verified through numerical simulation. Finally, a flow calorimetric experimental device is setup. N-decane was used as the fluid in the experiment, and the temperature was calculated, and the calculated results were compared with the NIST data. In the temperature range of 295.50–609.38 K, the relative error range of the calculation of n-decane temperature is −0.61% to 1.24%. The experimental results show that the method can effectively estimate the fluid temperature of the distributed flow calorimeter.
Integrative taxonomy of Teucriogethes pollen beetles (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae: Meligethinae), with implications on the systematics of the genus Teucrium (Lamiaceae)
Authors: Liu Meike , Li Qiuhong , Gardini Pietro , Audisio Paolo , Sabatelli Simone 
Published: October 2024

In highly specialised phytophagous insects, important insights on phylogeny of the involved insect group can be often inferred from the evolutionary history of their host plants, and vice-versa, as in the case for a new, peculiar species of pollen beetles, recently discovered in Central China (Hubei Province). This new species is described herein as Teucriogethes huangae Liu & Audisio, sp. nov., and information on its ecology and systematic position is provided. The new species, associated as larvae with a strongly isolated member of the genus Teucrium L. (Lamiaceae), T. ornatum Hemsl., exhibiting a problematic taxonomic position, represents in turn an isolated and morphologically rather aberrant taxon in its lineage, probably the largest in size (2.2–2.8 mm), and the first endemic representative of its genus in the whole Eastern Palaearctic. An updating of the taxonomic assessment of members of Teucriogethes and on possible evolutionary relationships with their larval host plants, based on an integrative taxonomy approach, is finally presented. A key to identification of all known species is also introduced. ZooBank: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:E349044B-29A5-416C-85CA-56143C7A29BE
Atomic electron transitions of hydrogen-like atoms induced by gravitational waves
Authors: Chen Bo-Hung , Chiou Dah-Wei 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
As a realistic model of a quantum system of matter, this paper investigates the gravitational-wave effects on a hydrogen-like atom using a first-principles approach. By formulating the tetrad formalism of linearized gravity, we naturally incorporate gravitational-wave effects through minimal coupling in the covariant Dirac equation. The atomic electron transition rates induced by the gravitational wave are calculated using first-order perturbation theory, revealing a distinctive selection rule along with Fermi’s golden rule. This rule can be elegantly understood in terms of gravitons as massless spin-2 particles. Our results suggest the existence of gravitons and may lead to a novel approach to probing ultra-high-frequency gravitational waves.

Abstract
In the field of LiDAR-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping, the potential of ground point clouds to enhance pose estimation in mobile robots has yet to be fully realized. This paper focuses on leveraging ground point clouds to improve the performance of LiDAR-Inertial Odometry (LIO) systems for ground-based mobile robots. We begin by analyzing the characteristics of ground point clouds and the typical types of noise that affect their extraction and utilization. Ground point clouds are then extracted from denoised data. Given the generally local planar nature of ground point clouds, we propose a segmentation-and-refitting approach to process them. This method reduces the computational burden of residual calculation in pose estimation by avoiding redundant plane fitting. Additionally, we introduce a data structure designed for the efficient management and utilization of ground point clouds obtained through segmentation and refitting. This structure is particularly suited to the ground point cloud data produced by our method, enabling efficient access and registration through the continuous maintenance and consolidation of local plane parameters. Our method has been integrated into advanced LIO systems (Bai et al 2022 IEEE Robot. Autom. Lett.
7 4861–8), and experimental results on challenging datasets demonstrate its promising performance.
Fluid-filled lattices for responsive orthotic insoles
Authors: Cracknell Dayna , Battley Mark , Fernandez Justin , Amirpour Maedeh 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Orthotic insoles are essential for alleviating discomfort and preventing injuries in the foot caused by high peak pressures in the plantar tissue. Traditional orthotic insoles, often prescribed to address these issues, are designed based on the static foot shape and pressure measurements, lacking responsiveness to dynamic movements. This study explores the behaviour of fluid-filled lattices for improving the functionality of orthotic insoles, focusing on energy dissipation and pressure redistribution capabilities. Using numerical homogenisation, the research integrates hyperelastic and permeability models to simulate the behaviour of Solid–Liquid Composites. Experimental tests validated these models, examining the influence of fluid viscosity and structural variations on energy dissipation and pressure distribution. Results show that fluid-filled lattices provide enhanced energy dissipation and reduce peak pressures by evening out the pressure distribution compared to non-fluid-filled samples. These findings highlight the potential of fluid-filled lattices to improve the performance and comfort of orthotic insoles.

Abstract
Heavy ion collision is a unique method for studying cold and dense nuclear matter in labs. The cooling storage ring external-target experiment at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou, China, is the first multi-purpose nuclear physics experimental device to operate in the GeV energy range. One of the key parts is a large acceptance dipole magnet, which is used to bend particles so that they can be detected by various detectors. A superconducting coil with a size of 3.1 m × 3.6 m × 2 m was designed to verify the rationality of the scheme. Although the coil-dominated superconducting magnet with NbTi has been used to reduce the weight and size of the magnet, large deformation and stress will occur in the cooldown and excitation stages owing to the large volume and weight. Therefore, it is crucial to design a reasonable structure to ensure the strength of the magnet and prevent the magnet from interfering with other components due to large deformation, and even the possibility of quenching. A truss supporter is proposed for the support of the superconducting coil. In this study, the structural design of the cold mass of a superconducting magnet is introduced, and its mechanical behaviors during cooldown and excitation are analyzed in detail. To verify the feasibility of the coil design and process route, a sub-size prototype was manufactured and tested at 4.2 K and reached the design current successfully.
Efficient and broadband sound absorption properties of slotted aluminum foam

Published: October 2024

Abstract
To enhance the sound absorption performance of aluminum foam, a slotted structure was developed. Firstly, the theoretical model of sound absorption for the slotted aluminum foam was established by the transfer matrix method. Secondly, the finite element model was established using COMSOL software to predict the sound absorption coefficient. The reliability of the theoretical and finite element models was validated through impedance tube experiments. The sound absorption mechanism is investigated by analyzing the internal sound field. Finally, the sound absorption properties of aluminum foam with other slot patterns are investigated. Additionally, the factors that influence sound absorption properties are investigated. The results indicate that the slots alter the sound pressure distribution within the material, inducing a pressure diffusion effect. When sound waves enter the interior of the material through the narrow slots, they are absorbed and dissipated by the matrix material on the sides of the slots. The sound absorption coefficient can be improved by increasing the thickness, slot scale, and slot depth of the slotted aluminum foam. Specifically, when the slot depth is 15 mm, and the slot width is 5 mm, the average sound absorption coefficient of incompletely slotted aluminum foam in the frequency range of 1000 ∼ 6300 Hz is 0.86, which can realize broadband sound absorption. With the increase of slot depth, the sound absorption peak becomes more pronounced.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
A photonic quasicrystal fiber - surface plasmon resonance (PQF-SPR) methane sensor made up of the eight-fold photonic quasicrystal fiber has been designed and analyzed. The PQF is used to construct the double-core D-type structure with air holes forming a hole groove on the D-type surface. The grooves are plated with ZnO and Au films successively, following the deposition of a methane-sensitive film containing Cryptophane-E. The effects of the air hole diameter, materials, and relative thickness of the composite film on the sensing properties are studied by finite element simulation. The results show that the wavelength sensitivity of the sensor with the ZnO-Au and TiO2-Au composite film with the same thickness is significantly higher than that with a single gold film coating in the methane concentration range of 0%–3.5%, confirming that the composite film enhances the SPR effect and improves the sensing properties. The ZnO-Au composite film has the best properties such as maximum and average wavelength sensitivities of 64 nm/% and 40.24 nm/%, respectively. The performance of this sensor is notably superior to that of comparable methane sensors previously documented.
Design and optimization of dielectric resonator based MIMO antenna with beam tilting at mm-wave for enhanced 5G communication using machine learning
Authors: Pandey Ashish , Sehgal Aakash , Kumar Vinay , Singh Akhilendra Pratap 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
In this paper, a dual-port ceramic-based multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna is designed for operation at mm-wave frequencies. The design incorporates a partially reflecting surface (PRS) positioned above the dual-port antenna to facilitate beam tilting. Additionally, various machine learning (ML) algorithms are utilized to optimize the unit cell length and the distance between the Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) and the PRS, thereby achieving the desired beam tilting characteristics. The ceramic element is excited through an aperture, which generates the HEM11δ
mode in the cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna (CDRA). The proposed antenna demonstrates excellent port isolation, exceeding 35 dB, and operates effectively within the 25.9–27.4 GHz frequency range. The PRS enables a broadside beam tilt of ±30 degrees, incorporating pattern diversity into the design. These characteristics make the proposed antenna an ideal candidate for mm-wave vehicle-to-vehicle and 5G communication systems.
