    Abstract To address the issue of a large calculation and difficult optimization for the traditional fault detection of a wind turbine-based pitch control system, a fault detection model, based on LightGBM by the improved Harris Hawks optimization algorithm (light gradient boosting machine by the improved Harris Hawks optimization, IHHO-LightGBM) for the wind turbine-based pitch control system, is proposed in this article. Firstly, a trigonometric function model is introduced by IHHO to update the prey escape energy, to balance the global exploration ability and local development ability of the algorithm. In this model, the fault detection false alarm rate is used as the fitness function, and the two parameters are used as the optimization objects of the improved Harris Hawks optimization algorithm, to optimize the parameters, so as to achieve the global optimal parameters to improve the performance of the fault detection model. Three different fault data of the pitch control system in actual operations of domestic wind farms are used as the experimental data, the Pearson correlation analysis method is introduced, and the wind turbine power output is taken as the main state parameter, to analyze the correlation degree of all the characteristic variables of the data and screen the important characteristic variables out, so as to achieve the effective dimensionality reduction process of the data, by using the feature selection method. Three established fault detection models are selected and compared with the proposed method, to verify its feasibility. The experimental data indicate that compared with other algorithms, the fault detecting ability of the proposed model is improved in all aspects, and the false alarm rate and false negative rate are lower.

    Abstract Abstract In this paper, the influence of E-glass fiber volume fraction and laying angle on the damping and strength of composite laminates was comprehensively analyzed. By increasing the fiber laying angle and reducing the glass fiber volume fraction, the damping capacity of the composite laminate was increased, but the tensile strength of the laminate was reduced; By reducing the fiber laying angle and increasing the glass fiber volume fraction, the tensile strength of the composite laminate was increased, but the damping characteristics of the laminate was reduced. In addition, in the damping experiment of composite laminates, in order to avoid the influence of external damping sources, the vacuum non-contact damping test method was adopted in this paper, and the influence of air damping on the damping experiment results of composite laminates was comparatively analyzed. The results of comparative experiments showed that air damping had a very obvious influence on the damping of composite laminates, especially when the damping of composite laminates was small, the influence of air damping would be greater.

    Abstract This study aimed to develop a safe and advanced antibacterial material of electrospun microfiber membranes (MFMs) for wound dressings. Combinations of several materials were investigated; thermal treatment and electrospinning techniques were used to form the best quality of MFMs to suit its end applications. By comparing the fiber morphology, diameter changes, and fracture strength, the suitable ratio of raw materials and thermal treatment were obtained before and after adding Trition X-100 as a surfactant for MFMs of sodium alginate/polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide (SA/PVA/PEO). The electrospinning solution was mixed with berberine as an antibacterial substance; meanwhile, calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) was used as the crosslinking agent. The antibacterial properties, water dissolution resistance, water content, and fracture strength were thoroughly investigated. The results showed that the antibacterial rates of MFMs with different mass fractions of berberine (0, 3, and 5 wt.%) to Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) were 14.7, 92.9, and 97.2%, respectively. The moisture content and fracture strength of MFMs containing 5 wt.% berberine were 72.0% and 7.8 MPa, respectively. In addition, the produced MFMs embodied great water dissolution resistance. Berberine-loaded SA/PVA/PEO MFMs could potentially serve as an antibacterial wound dressing substrate with low cost and small side effects.

    Abstract With the trend of high integration and high power of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) components, strict requirements have been placed on the heat dissipation capabilities of the IGBT devices. On the basis of traditional rectangular fins, this paper developed two new types of heat-dissipating fins to meet the high requirements of heat dissipation for the IGBT devices. One is the rectangular radiator with a groove length of 2.5 mm and a width of 0.85 mm, the other is the arc radiator with the angle of 125 arc angle, 0.8 mm arc height, and 1.4 mm circle radius. After theoretically calculating the IGBT junction temperature, numerical simulations have been implemented to verify the theoretical result. The commercial CFD software, STAR-CCM+, was employed to simulate the heat dissipation characteristics of the IGBT module under different wind speeds, power, and fin structures. By analyzing the temperature field and vector field of the IGBT module, the analysis results demonstrate that the error between the simulation result and the theoretical calculation is within 5%, which proves the feasibility of the newly designed heat-dissipating fins. When the wind speed is 12.5 m/s, the power is 110 W, the fin height is 31.2 mm, and the fin thickness is 2.3 mm, the rectangular radiator can achieve the best heat dissipation performance.

    Abstract Abstract Dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DESCT) is based on fast switching between high and low voltages from view to view to obtain dual-energy imaging data, and it can generate monochromatic image sets, iodine-based material decomposition images and spectral CT curves. Quantitative spectral CT parameters may be valuable for reflecting Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated the associations among the quantitative parameters generated in DESCT and Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation in NSCLC. We studied sixty-five NSCLC patients with preoperative DESCT scans, and their specimens underwent Ki-67 and EGFR evaluations. Statistical analyses were performed to identify the spectral CT parameters for the diagnosis of Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation status. We found that tumour grade and the slope of the spectral CT curve in the venous phase were the independent factors influencing the Ki-67 expression level, and the area under the curve (AUC) of the slope of the spectral CT curve in the venous phase in the receiver operating characteristic analysis for distinguishing different Ki-67 expression levels was 0.901. Smoking status and the normalized iodine concentration in the venous phase were independent factors influencing EGFR mutation, and the AUC of the two-factor combination for predicting the presence of EGFR mutation was 0.807. These results show that spectral CT parameters may be useful for predicting Ki-67 expression and the presence of EGFR mutation in NSCLC.

    Abstract Artificial bee colony (ABC) is a novel population-based optimization method, having the advantage of less control parameters, being easy to implement, and having strong global optimization ability. However, ABC algorithm has some shortcomings concerning its position-updated equation, which is skilled in global search and bad at local search. In order to coordinate the ability of global and local search, we first propose a self-adaptive ABC algorithm (denoted as SABC) in which an improved position-updated equation is used to guide the search of new candidate individuals. In addition, good-point-set approach is introduced to produce the initial population and scout bees. The proposed SABC is tested on 12 well-known problems. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed SABC algorithm has better search ability with other several ABC variants.

    Abstract Abstract Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) has gained wide attention as potential tool for differentiating between malignant and benign solitary pulmonary lesions (SPLs). The overall effects of multiple histopathological parameters on ADC have not been elucidated, which may help to explain the overlapping of ADC between malignant and benign SPLs. The study sought to explore associations between ADC and histopathological parameters in SPLs, and to compare diagnostic capability of ADC among different types of SPLs. Multiple histopathological parameters (cell density, nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio, necrotic fraction, presence of mucus and grade of differentiation) were quantified in 52 malignant and 13 benign SPLs with surgical pathology available. Cell density (β = −0.40) and presence of mucus (β = 0.77) were independently correlated with ADC in malignant SPLs. The accurate diagnosis rate of squamous carcinomas, adenocarcinomas without mucus and malignant tumors with mucus was 100%, 82% and 0%, respectively. Our study suggested that cell density and presence of mucus are independently correlated with ADC in malignant SPLs. Squamous carcinoma maybe more accurately diagnosed as malignancy by ADC value. Malignant SPLs with mucus and adenocarcinomas with low cell density should be kept in mind in differentiating SPLs using ADC because of insufficient diagnostic capability.

    Abstract Abstract Background Data heterogeneity is a common phenomenon related to the secondary use of electronic health records (EHR) data from different sources. The Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics (OHDSI) Common Data Model (CDM) organizes healthcare data into standard data structures using concepts that are explicitly and formally specified through standard vocabularies, thereby facilitating large-scale analysis. The objective of this study is to design, develop, and evaluate generic survival analysis routines built using the OHDSI CDM. Methods We used intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patient data to implement CDM-based survival analysis methods. Our methods comprise the following modules: 1) Mapping local terms to standard OHDSI concepts. The analytical expression of variables and values related to demographic characteristics, medical history, smoking status, laboratory results, and tumor feature data. These data were mapped to standard OHDSI concepts through a manual analysis; 2) Loading patient data into the CDM using the concept mappings; 3) Developing an R interface that supports the portable survival analysis on top of OHDSI CDM, and comparing the CDM-based analysis results with those using traditional statistical analysis methods. Results Our dataset contained 346 patients diagnosed with ICC. The collected clinical data contains 115 variables, of which 75 variables were mapped to the OHDSI concepts. These concepts mainly belong to four domains: condition, observation, measurement, and procedure. The corresponding standard concepts are scattered in six vocabularies: ICD10CM, ICD10PCS, SNOMED, LOINC, NDFRT, and READ. We loaded a total of 25,950 patient data records into the OHDSI CDM database. However, 40 variables failed to map to the OHDSI CDM as they mostly belong to imaging data and pathological data. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that conducting survival analysis using the OHDSI CDM is feasible and can produce reusable analysis routines. However, challenges to be overcome include ...

    Abstract Abstract To assess characteristics of Chinese costal cartilage and costa calcification using Dual-Energy computed tomography(DECT). 154 patients who underwent chest DECT scanning were included in our study. They were divided into following groups: less than 30 years old, 31–40 years old, 41–50 years old, 51–60 years old and over 60 years old. The sixth, seventh and eighth costal cartilages and costas were evaluated. Calcification patterns of cartilage were classified as central(C), peripheral(P), mixed(M) and no calcification(N) types. Calcification degree of cartilage was distinguished as 1(0–25%), 2(26–50%) and 3(>50%). CT value, calcium and water concentrations were measured in costal cartilage, cortical or cancellous bone respectively. An increasing C pattern of cartilage was displayed in females, while P type preferred in males as age increased. Calcification degree generally changed from 1 to 2 or 3 in females. CT value and calcium concentration of cartilage went through a gradual rising course and peaked in their 40–50 years, while those two indices of cancellous bone decreased gradually since their 50 years in females. The findings suggest a gradual calcification of the costal cartilage took place before 40–50 years old and a sharp bone loss of the costa happened after 40–50 years old in females.

    Abstract The development of new procedures and protocols that allow researchers to obtain recombinant proteins is of fundamental importance in the biotechnology field. A strategy was explored to overcome inclusion-body formation observed when expressing an aggregation-prone fungal xylanase in Escherichia coli. pHsh is an expression plasmid that uses a synthetic heat-shock (Hsh) promoter, in which gene expression is regulated by an alternative sigma factor (σ(32)). A derivative of pHsh was constructed by fusing a signal peptide to xynA2 gene to facilitate export of the recombinant protein to the periplasm. The xylanase was produced in a soluble form. Three factors were essential to achieving such soluble expression of the xylanase: 1) the target gene was under the control of the Hsh promoter, 2) the gene product was exported into the periplasm, and 3) gene expression was induced by a temperature upshift. For the first time we report the expression of periplasmic proteins under the control of an Hsh promoter regulated by σ(32). One unique feature of this approach was that over 200 copies of the Hsh promoter in an E. coli cell significantly increased the concentration of σ(32). The growth inhibition of the recombinant cells corresponded to an increase in the levels of soluble periplasmic protein. Therefore, an alternative protocol was designed to induce gene expression from pHsh-ex to obtain high levels of active soluble enzymes.
