Quantitative Multiparameter Evaluation of Vacuoles in Intraocular Lenses Employing a High-Magnification Digital Microscopy Method

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2019
As small imperfections with micrometric sizes, fluid-filled vacuoles, also referred to as glistenings, in intraocular lenses (IOLs) have been known to induce significant unwanted light scattering that in several cases presumably cause complaints and ...

Magnetorheological Fluid Filled Spring for Variable Stiffness and Damping: Current and Potential Performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2022
Magnetorheological (MR) fluid is a smart material utilized for semi-active damping devices thanks to its ability to become viscoelastic solid under a magnetic field and provide variable damping.

Magnetic Spring Device

open access: yes, 2009
A cylindrical system is proposed that will store magnetic energy in a localized azimuthal field that can then be quickly released on Alfvenic timescales, accompanied by the formation of a flowing Z-pinch plasma. The magnetized plasma is MHD in character and will have unilateral axial momentum with Alfvenic speeds.

Research on the Seismic Isolation Effect of the Ring Spring–Friction Pendulum Bearing in the Dakai Underground Subway Station

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
During strong earthquakes, the vertical seismic force becomes an essential factor affecting shallow underground structures that cannot be ignored. In this situation, it is proposed that ring spring–friction pendulum two-way seismic isolation bearings be ...
