A Reinforcement Learning Approach to Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation in Intensive Care Units

open access: yes, 2017
The management of invasive mechanical ventilation, and the regulation of sedation and analgesia during ventilation, constitutes a major part of the care of patients admitted to intensive care units. Both prolonged dependence on mechanical ventilation and

Effects of Cooling Rates on Self‐Reinforced Polyethylene Composites via Multiscale Experimental Characterizations

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
(top) fabrication and multi‐scale characterizations of self‐reinforced polyethylene composites (PE‐SRCs); (bottom) effects of cooling rates on mechanical properties and crystal morphologies of PE‐SRCs. ABSTRACT This study investigates cooling rate effects on self‐reinforced polyethylene composites (PE‐SRCs), focusing on macroscopic thermal and ...

Effects of UV‐Thermal Exposure Sequence on the Compressive Performance of FDM‐Printed Polymers

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
These findings establish aging sequence as a key design parameter for FDM polymers, enabling safer material selection and improved durability of load‐bearing printed components. ABSTRACT Ultraviolet (UV) radiation and elevated temperatures can alter the compressive performance of fused deposition modeled (FDM) polymers, but the combined effects, and ...

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Structural characterization and optimum machining parameters of jute/carbon fibre hybrid reinforced epoxy composite laminates

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Hybrid jute/carbon epoxy laminates have better mechanical performance and less drilling damage by the use of optimized stacking sequence and machining parameters. Abstract Three composite laminate systems were produced using the standard hand lay‐up method: jute‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (JFRP), carbon‐fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and a hybrid of the
