Published: October 2023

In recent years, the integration of computer vision algorithms and robotics has shown great potential for revolutionizing various domains, including medical sciences. This paper aims to explore the cutting-edge applications of computer vision and robotics in medical research and healthcare. By leveraging the capabilities of computer vision algorithms and robotic systems, we can enhance medical diagnosis, surgical interventions, and patient care. This research paper provides an in-depth analysis of the key components, challenges, and potential future directions of this interdisciplinary field. In this paper, we propose an innovative approach to addressing the scarcity of professional medical assistance in isolated communities by establishing efficient communication between the human operator and a robotic limb that has enabled the precise replication of human movements in real-time by implementing computer vision, regardless of geographical distance, thereby revolutionizing the remote operation of such robotic devices. This advanced artificial body part aims to perform not only basic health check-ups but also has the potential for more complex medical procedures. Our approach overcomes limitations of existing prosthetic models, such as pre-determined task-specific functionalities and high latency in real-time operation as well as the necessity for the operator and the robotic unit to be nearby. Furthermore, the proposed model reduces the need for frequent calibration and constant monitoring, enhancing its practical applicability. It can also collect valuable medical data, providing patients with a reliable means of tracking their health conditions and medical professionals with vast amounts of structured medical data previously inaccessible. We aim to inspire further research and development in the field of computer vision algorithms and robotics for advancements in medical sciences. Through this interdisciplinary work, we anticipate improved healthcare access and outcomes for individuals residing in isolated communities, ultimately contributing to the overall enhancement of medical services on a global scale.

Monitoring corrosion-induced concrete cracking adjacent to the steel-concrete interface
Authors: Alhede Andreas , Dijkstra Jelke , Lundgren Karin 
Published: October 2023

AbstractSubstantial research effort has been devoted on linking corrosion-induced cracking of concrete with the internal corrosion damage level. Still, numerical models of the corrosion and cracking process require internal parameters, that cannot be directly evaluated from experimental data. Therefore, this study provides a novel experimental method for monitoring the effects of steel corrosion adjacent to the steel-concrete interface. This non-destructive method is suited for small-scale laboratory-made specimen, and was designed to provide missing information required for subsequent calibration of numerical models. Hollow steel bars were cast into concrete and subjected to accelerated corrosion using the impressed current technique. The deformations of the hollow steel bars were measured using distributed strain sensing in an optical fibre, attached to the inner surface of the hollow steel bars. After the corrosion period, X-ray Computed Tomography scans were performed to evaluate concrete cracking and corrosion level. The results reveal a non-uniform distribution of strain around the perimeter of the steel, indicating a non-uniform radial stress distribution. The non-uniformity correlated very well with the position of the corrosion-induced cracks; with extension hoop strains in the steel at the location of these cracks and contraction hoop strains in between. Further, the corrosion level varied around the perimeter, with higher values near cracks. The combination of non-destructive monitoring techniques used in this study on small-scale laboratory-made specimens show great potential to reveal new insights on how the corrosion pattern, corrosion-induced cracking of the concrete cover and stress (indirectly measured through the strain in the steel) interact throughout the corrosion process.

APLIKASI METODE ASBĀB AL-NUZŪL MAKRO DALAM SURAT AL-AN’AM
Authors: Azhari Nadyya Rahma 
Published: October 2023

Abstract: Not all verses in the Qur'an have a history (asbāb al-nuzūl micro), sura al-An'am is one of them. While asbāb al-nuzūl has an important role in explaining the historicity of a verse. Even so, there have been methods to keep looking at the historical context of the verse, one of which is by bringing up the macro asbāb al-nuūl. This method has actually been discussed by several Islamic scholars, one of them is Fazlur Rahman in the double movement method. Where there is a macro situation that may have a connection with the verse. More in theory about asbāb al-nuzūl macro is developed in a book entitled The Smart Book of Sababun Nuzul from Micro to Macro an Epistemology by Mu'ammar Zayn Qadafy. In this book he describes several methods for finding the macro asbāb al-nuzul. So this paper will try to apply these methods in looking at the asbāb al-nuzūl Al-An'am and to what extent this macro asbāb al-nuzul is able to help explain its historical conditions.Keywords: Asbāb al-Nuzūl, Makro, Mikro, Al-An’am Abstrak: Tidak semua ayat dalam Al-Qur’an memiliki riwayat (asbāb al-nuzūl mikro), surat al-An’am adalah salah satunya. Sementara asbāb al-nuzūl memiliki peranan penting dalam menjelaskan historisitas suatu ayat. Meski demikian, telah ada metode untuk tetepa melihat konteks historis ayat tersebut, salah satunya dengan memunculkan asbāb al-nuūl makro. Metode ini sebenarnya sudah dibahas oleh beberapa sarjana Islam, salah satunya Fazlur Rahman dalam metode double movement. Di mana ada sebuah situasi makro yang mungkin memilki keterkaitan dengan ayat tersebut. Lebih dalam teori tentang asbāb al-nuzūl makro ini dikembangkan dalam sebuah buku berjudul Buku Pintar Sababun Nuzul dari Mikro hinngga Makro Sebuah Epistimologi oleh Mu’ammar Zayn Qadafy. Dalam buku ini ia menjelaskan beberapa metode untuk menemukan asbāb al-nuzul makro tersebut.Maka tulisan ini akan mencoba untuk mengaplikasikan metode tersebut dalam melihat asbāb al-nuzūl Al-An’am dan sejauh mana asbāb al-nuzul makro ini mampu membantu menjelaskan kondisi historisnya. Kata Kunci: Asbāb al-Nuzūl, Makro, Mikro, Al-An’am

One of the leading causes of death on earth is traffic accidents. Traffic accidents occur for many reasons. One reason is the condition of the road itself. Depok is a sub-urban area of Greater Jakarta that has the Margonda Highway as one of its main roads. That highway has become strategic as a "backbone" in supporting the wheel of economics and societies in Depok’s civilization. Road Function Compliance Evaluation (RFCE) is a process of evaluating the compliance of a road component to the standards that have been made by authorities for safety reasons to avoid traffic accidents. Therefore, a road’s compliance should be evaluated periodically to minimize the possibility of traffic accidents. Up to this moment, RFCE is still executed by filling out a form manually. In this technological era, it seems that RFCE should be implemented into an automation application using an algorithm.
ABSTRAK
Penyebab utama kematian dunia salah satunya adalah disebabkan oleh kecelakaan lalu lintas. Faktor lingkungan seperti kondisi ruas jalan dapat menjadi pengaruh terjadinya kecelakaan lalu lintas. Sebagai salah satu daerah penyangga DKI Jakarta, Kota Depok memiliki salah satu akses jalan utama yaitu Jalan Margonda. Jalan tersebut merupakan salah satu tulang punggung dari kehidupan bermasyarakat serta menjadi penunjang bagi roda sosial dan perekonomian warga Kota Depok. Uji Laik Fungsi Jalan (ULFJ) merupakan pengujian atas syarat-syarat terkait suatu ruas jalan untuk memastikan bahwa jalan tersebut sudah layak untuk digunakan oleh pengendara dengan mementingkan aspek keselamatan. Oleh karena itu suatu jalan perlu untuk diuji tingkat kelayakannya secara berkala demi memastikan keamanan berkendara dan meminimalisir terjadinya kecelakaan. Evaluasi ULFJ sampai saat ini masih menggunakan pengisian formulir secara manual. Pada zaman dimana teknologi telah berkembang pesat, tentu dirasakan bahwa perlu adanya aplikasi otomasi untuk melakukan evaluasi ULFJ menggunakan algoritma.

Published: October 2023

Abstract

At present, there are few studies on blunt abdominal aortic injury (BAAI), and most of them are case reports. Little is known about this disease. So, a systematic review was conducted through extensive search of major databases. All literature that provided individual (non-identifiable) data for BAAI patients could be included without being limited by study design. Additionally, regression analyses of predictors for death after BAAI were conducted. The search resulted in 2,099 hits, and 102 case reports and 1 conference abstract included in the review then. After assessment using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist, no low-quality studies were found. A total of 133 patients were included, with a median age of 34 and 73.7% being males. Their most common clinical manifestation was pain (65.6%). The most common severity of aortic lesion was grade A (intimal tear or intramural hematoma, 46.9%), and the most common location of aortic lesion was zone III (infrarenal aorta, 88.3%). The overall mortality after BAAI was 15.3%. The following are the predictors for death after BAAI identified through multivariate regression analyses: lower limb ischemia [relative risk (RR), 7.137; 95% conﬁdence interval (CI), 1.154-44.161], cardiopulmonary arrest (RR, 10.250; 95% CI, 1.452-72.344), and injuries to other parts (other than abdomen and lumbar spine) of body (RR, 2.593; 95% CI, 1.189-5.655). In conclusion, this study provides a detailed quantitative summary of the characteristics of the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of BAAI, a deadly traumatic disease, and indicates that the three variables above are risk factors for death.

Abstract
Purpose
The aim was to analyze the pregnancy and neonatal outcomes of pregnant women with new- onset acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosed during pregnancy.
Methods
In this retrospective study 25 pregnant women who were diagnosed with new-onset AML during pregnancy from January 2010 to January 2021 were enrolled.
Results
A total of 4, 13 and 8 pregnant women with new-onset AML were diagnosed during the first, second, and third trimesters, respectively. Twelve of the 25 pregnant women underwent therapeutic abortion and 13 gave birth (9 preterm and 4 full-term newborns). The gestational age at initial clinical manifestations (13.4 ± 3.7 vs. 27.7 ± 5.6 weeks, P < 0.01) and diagnosis (16.9 ± 4.4 vs. 29.7 ± 5.5 weeks, P < 0.01) was lower in the pregnant women who underwent therapeutic abortion than in those who gave birth. Eighty-four percent (21/25) of the pregnant women with new-onset AML during pregnancy survived and were in remission and all the newborns were born alive. Three of the 13 newborns were exposed to chemotherapy, but no congenital malformations were observed. Eight newborns were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and then all recovered. The complete blood counts and biochemical examinations of the 8 newborns were normal.
Conclusions
New-onset AML during an earlier stage of pregnancy may increase the risk of poor pregnancy outcomes. The neonatal outcomes of pregnant women with new-onset AML during pregnancy are good with proper treatment.
Solids Mixing Intensification in Tapered Fluidized Beds with an Inlet Jet: Experimental Validation and CFD Simulation
Authors: Jabbari Esmaeil , Mardanloo Peyman , Sarafan Kiana , Dehkordi Asghar Molaei 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This article investigates the intensification of solids mixing in tapered fluidized beds with an inlet jet and varying apex angles (2.86, 5.71, and 8.53 degrees). The investigation applied a particle segregation number (PSN) and a multi-fluid modeling (MFM) approach. The solid mixtures considered comprise particles with a density of 2500 kg/m³ and diameters of 240 and 510 µm. To validate simulation results, a comparison was made with experimental data from a small-sized tapered bed without an inlet jet. In addition, the simulation outcomes were validated against experimental findings reported by Huilin et al. (2003), incorporating an inlet jet. These validations establish a satisfactory agreement between simulation results and experimental observations. The study reveals that the solids mixing process in a columnar fluidized bed closely resembles that in a tapered fluidized bed with an apex angle of 2.86 degrees. As the apex angle increases, the equilibrium mixing value also rises. Furthermore, the study delves into the effects of inlet jet velocity and nozzle diameter on the solids mixing process. The obtained results clearly indicate that higher inlet jet velocities and larger nozzle diameters lead to increased equilibrium mixing index values. Notably, inlet jet velocities of 0.7 and 0.8 m/s manifest a solids mixing process characterized by three stages: rapid mixing, slow mixing, and equilibrium mixing. In contrast, larger inlet jet velocities only involve rapid and equilibrium mixing stages. Moreover, it was examined how the initial arrangement of solid particles influences the mixing index, prompting appropriate adjustments. In sum, this research sheds light on the factors impacting solids mixing in tapered fluidized beds, offering valuable insights into the solids mixing process in tapered fluidized beds.
