A review of treatment methods for oil-based drill cuttings
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2018 Globally, the operation of oil and gas exploration is increasing, which results in a large number of hazardous oil-based drill cuttings. These oil-based drill cuttings are bound to pose a serious threat to the environment and human health, so a series of

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Breast cancer is a neoplastic disease with high prevalence among women. Radiotherapy is one of the principal treatment modalities for this disease, but it poses significant challenges. This study aimed to compare and evaluate the technical and dosimetric performance of conventional C‐arm linac systems and a new design, Halcyon, in the ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 For scientists who study subseafloor sediment, it’s not unusual to spend a lot of time at sea aboard a ship with a gaping hole in its hull. Known as a moon pool, the hole serves as a portal for the ship’s weighty drilling equipment to retrieve core samples of seafloor sediment thousands of meters below. Aboard …

Drilling of bone: Effect of drill bit geometries on thermal osteonecrosis risk regions
Proceedings of the Institution of mechanical engineers. Part H, journal of engineering in medicine, 2018 Bone-drilling operation necessitates an accurate and efficient surgical drill bit to minimize thermal damage to the bone. This article provides a methodology for predicting the bone temperature elevation during surgical bone drilling and to gain a better

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The use of deep learning‐based auto‐contouring algorithms in various treatment planning services is increasingly common. There is a notable deficit of commercially or publicly available models trained on large or diverse datasets containing high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy treatment scans, leading to poor performance on images ...

Numerical and experimental studies of stick–slip oscillations in drill-strings
Nonlinear dynamics, 2017 The cyclic nature of the stick–slip phenomenon may cause catastrophic failures in drill-strings or at the very least could lead to the wear of expensive equipment.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Purpose Linear accelerator (LINAC)‐based single‐isocenter multi‐target (SIMT) treatment has streamlined the cranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) workflow. Though efficient, SIMT delivery adds additional challenges that should be considered, including increased sensitivity to rotational errors for off‐isocenter targets.
