INTRODUCTION: Pelvic ring fractures are a relatively common form of orthopaedic trauma. While mechanical stability may be restored by the insertion of iliosacral screws, the proximity of the ideal screw trajectory to the fifth lumbar and first sacral nerve roots (S1), as well as the spinal canal make nervous tissue injury a potential hazard. Fluoroscopy has typically been used to ensure proper ...

This paper reports the performance of nickel oxide based electrode in alkaline anion exchange membrane water electrolysis. The membrane used is polystyrene based alkaline membrane and the electrode used is Nickel as cathode and Nickel oxide as anode. The electrochemical activity of the Nickel oxide is high compared to uncoated electrode. The AWE membrane electrode gave high current density at 3...

Self-organized electrode patterns are often observed experimentally in diverse types of electrical discharges, including atmospheric-pressure electric arcs, but rarely captured in general-purpose computational plasma dynamics simulations. Time-dependent three-dimensional thermodynamic non-equilibrium (two-temperature) simulations reveal the spontaneous formation of self-organized anode attachme...

The use of lithium (Li) metal anodes has been reconsidered because of the necessity for a higher energy density in secondary batteries. However, Li metal anodes suffer from 'dead' Li formation and surface deactivation which consequently form a porous layer of redundant Li aggregates. In this work, a fibrous metal felt (FMF) as a three-dimensional conductive interlayer was introduced between the...

The rational design of anode materials is a challenge in developing sodium ion batteries. Alloy anodes provide high gravimetric and volumetric capacities but suffer the short cycle life as a result of the continuous and accumulated pulverization, resulting from a large volume change during the cycling process. Herein, using pure Sn, an irreversible conversion reaction combined with an alloy rea...

Hollow nanostructured anode materials lie at the heart of research relating to Li-ion batteries, which require high capacity, high rate capability, and high safety. The higher capacity and higher rate capability for hollow nanostructured anode materials than that for the bulk counterparts can be attributed to their higher surface area, shorter path length for Li(+) transport, and more freedom f...

Based on the conduction mechanism of vacuum trigger diode, an experimental scheme has been designed to research on the effect of voltage parameters on radiation characteristics of vacuum trigger diode. The factors, including charging voltage and anode-cathode voltage, affecting radiation characteristics of vacuum trigger diode are analyzed. Through measure and analysis of trigger current, the r...
