Surgical Outcomes of Sequential Robot‐Assisted Hepatobiliary–Pancreatic Surgery in a Single Operating Room: A Single‐Center Retrospective Analysis of a High‐Volume Center in Japan (TAKUMI‐6)

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the surgical outcomes of sequential robot‐assisted hepatobiliary–pancreatic (HBP) in a single operating room. The outcomes and operating room timelines were comparable between the first and second cases. The median turnover time was 49 min, and the day‐shift completion success rate was 34.4%.

Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

Vision‐Based Handover and Organization of Robotic Scrub Nurse for Seamless Surgical Flow

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a pose estimation‐based robotic scrub nurse (PERSN) that assists surgical procedures by estimating the surgeon's hand position, orientation, and grasping state, along with the constraint‐based 6D pose of surgical instruments. User evaluations show that PERSN provides greater immediate usability and reduces physical demand compared ...

Effect of flow deflectors on local scour around artificial reefs under steady current: Experimental and numerical investigations

Applied Ocean Research
Artificial reefs are submerged structures used to rehabilitate marine ecosystems and restore fishery resources. Field investigations have revealed that local scour poses a significant threat to these structures in various regions.

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Scour near Offshore Monopiles, Jacket-Type and Caisson-Type Structures

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Scour near various offshore structures (monopile, caisson foundation and jacket structure) was studied by performing laboratory flume tests and numerical solutions with a semi-empirical model (SEDSCOUR) and a sophisticated 2DV model (SUSTIM2DV).

Experimental study on local scour around large-diameter submerged cylinders under combined waves and current action

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2019
The characteristics of local scour around large-diameter submerged cylinders are quite different from the non-submerged ones under combined wave and current conditions. Local scour model tests are carried out in a wave-current flume. A submerged cylinder

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Mean Flow Structure and Local Scour around Single and Two-Column Bridge Piers [PDF]

علوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2019
Bridges constructed across rivers are among the most important structures, especially during and after flood events. Bridge piers are exposed to some hazardous factors such as local and contraction scour hydrodynamics.

7000 Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region.
