To meet the demand of locking force in clinical treatment, the tightening torque angle of the locking bolt and the required torque magnitude need to be precisely designed. For this purpose, a design study of the locking mechanism is carried out to analyze the correspondence between the tightening torque angle and the locking force and to determine the effective torque value, which involves complex coupling of contact, material and geometric nonlinear characteristics. Firstly, a simulation analysis based on parametric orthogonal experimental design is carried out to determine the SMA hyperelastic material parameters for the experimental data of SMA archwire with three-point bending. Secondly, a two-stage fine finite-element simulation model for bolt tightening and archwire pulling is established, and the nonlinear analysis is converged through the optimization of key contact parameters. Finally, multiple sets of calibration experiments are carried out for three tightening torsion angles. The comparison results between the design analysis and the calibration experiments show that the deviation between the design analysis and the calibration mean value of the locking force in each case is within 10%, and the design analysis method is valid and reliable. The final tightening torque angle for clinical application is determined to be 10° and the rated torque is 2.8 N∙mm. The key data obtained can be used in the design of clinical protocols and subsequent mechanical optimization of novel orthodontic devices, and the research methodology can provide a valuable reference for force analysis of medical devices containing SMA materials.</p>","PeriodicalId":39324,"journal":{"name":"生物医学工程学杂志","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11366461/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142113075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, clinical records of sudden cardiac death (SCD) electrocardiogram (ECG) data are extremely limited. This paper proposes an early prediction and classification algorithm for SCA based on deep transfer learning. With limited ECG data, it extracts heart rate variability features before the onset of SCA and utilizes a lightweight convolutional neural network model for pre-training and fine-tuning in two stages of deep transfer learning. This achieves early classification, recognition and prediction of high-risk ECG signals for SCA by neural network models. Based on 16 788 30-second heart rate feature segments from 20 SCA patients and 18 sinus rhythm patients in the international publicly available ECG database, the algorithm performance evaluation through ten-fold cross-validation shows that the average accuracy (Acc), sensitivity (Sen), and specificity (Spe) for predicting the onset of SCA in the 30 minutes prior to the event are 91.79%, 87.00%, and 96.63%, respectively. The average estimation accuracy for different patients reaches 96.58%.

Effects of tube-side flow rate, shell-side flow rate, and hollow fiber length on the mass transfer of bilirubin and BSA were discussed.
