Numerical Simulation of Flow Pattern around the Bridge Pier with Submerged Vanes [PDF]

Journal of Hydraulic Structures, 2016
Bridges are very important for establishing communication paths. For this reason, it is important to control scour around bridge piers. Several methods have been proposed for scour control. One of the most useful methods is the use of submerged vanes. In

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%.

Scouring assessment in curves

, 2016
Scouring in curves produces severe damages at the outer banks. For a comprehensive view, 2 cases have to be distinguished: 1) large flood effect in general curves, 2) over-deepened meandering arms, for small floods in straight stretches.

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 ...

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.
