METHOD OF FILLING SIMULATED MUSCLES FOR LIMB OF CRASH TEST DUMMY FOR AUTOMOBILE
The present invention discloses a method of filling simulated muscles for a limb of an automobile crash test dummy, the simulated muscles are molded with foaming in the inner cavity of the mold; the method comprises: obtaining a filling volume of the inner cavity of the mold by using a liquid casting method, preparing an adhesive liquid film layer, preparing a filler and conducting demolding detection on the limb. Wherein step 3 is to inject the mixed filler into the inner cavity of the mold so as to be foamed in the mold to form foamed sponge, and stand until the foamed sponge is foamed to the exhaust port and does not overflow any more.
IMPRESSION-TAKING PAD AND A METHOD FOR TAKING AN IMPRESSION OF AN EAR CANAL
This invention relates to an impression-taking pad (10) for taking an impression (20) of an ear canal (30) by an impression-taking material, having a lateral end (el) to be arranged away from a tympanic membrane (35) in said ear canal (30); and a medial end (em) to be arranged proximate to said tympanic membrane (35). The impression-taking pad (10) comprises an outer body (2) tapering from said lateral end (el) to said medial end (em). The impression-taking pad (10) further comprises an inner body (3) for releasable engagement with a tool (11, 12) for visual inspection of the ear canal (30), the inner body (3) being configured to support insertion of the impression-taking pad (10) in the ear canal (30) by the tool (11, 12). The impression-taking pad (10) comprises a duct (5) at least partially defmed by the inner body (3), forming at least part of an optical path for visual inspection of the ear canal (30); wherein the optical path further comprises an inspection window (6), closing said duct (5), configured to support inspection of the ear canal (30) during the insertion of the impression-taking pad (10) in the ear canal (30); The impression-taking pad (10) is further configured to form an integral part of said impression (20). The present invention also relates to a method of taking an impression by the above defmed impression-taking pad (10); as well as to a correlated impression-taking system comprising an aptly modified tool (11, 12) to cooperate with such an impression-taking pad (10).
TISSUE-MIMICKING HYDROGEL COMPOSITIONS FOR BIOFABRICATION
An extrudable hydrogel composition useful for making a three-dimensional organ construct includes a cross-linkable prepolymer, a post-deposition crosslinking group, optionally, an initiator that catalyzes the reaction between the prepolymer and said the crosslinking group; live cells (e.g., plant, animal, or microbial cells), optionally at least one one growth factor, and optionally water to balance. Methods of using the same and products so made are also described.
THREE-DIMENSIONALLY PRINTED INTERNAL FLESH AND ORGANS FOR CRASH TEST DUMMY
A three-dimensionally printed internal organ for a crash test dummy is made of at least an outer core configured to replicate an outer portion for the internal organ and an inner core having a plurality of defined and varied cell structures disposed in the outer core to replicate an internal portion of the internal organ, wherein the outer core and inner core are adjustable in structure and material to vary performance requirements for evaluation of potential abdominal injuries during vehicle crash testing.
SETTING METHOD FOR CONDUCTING ELEMENT OF ELECTROCHEMICAL TEST STRIP AND ELECTROCHEMICAL TEST STRIP THEREOF
The present invention relates a setting method for a conducting element of an electrochemical test strip and electrochemical test strip thereof. An inspection body is formed by injection molding polymer plastic materials to coat with the plurality of conducting elements, and an external contact surface on an information outputting end of the conducting element is exposed from an inspection slot of the inspection body, so that the information outputting end of the conducting element is extended from the inspection body. Eventually, the information outputting end is bent to fix on a surface of the inspection body. The present invention is not complex and has more precision and convenience, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced efficiently, so that wide application can be expected in the near future.
System for identifying parts formed in an additive manufacturing build
A system and method for identifying test bars formed during a selective laser sintering build. A part cake is formed during a selective laser sintering build. The part cake comprises parts formed from a powder by selective laser sintering and unsintered powder around the formed parts. The parts include test bars for performing material testing. Each test bar includes a plurality of indentations in a first grip section and a second grip section. The plurality of indentations are arranged in a information providing pattern that is adapted to be readable after the test part is removed from the part cake.
METHOD OF PRODUCING A RADIOMETRIC PHYSICAL PHANTOM OF A BIOLOGICAL ORGANISM AND PHYSICAL PHANTOM PRODUCED BY THIS METHOD
A method (2) of producing a radiometric physical phantom of a biological organism to be irradiated or already irradiated having at least two volumes of appreciably different biological tissues comprises a step (6) of determining a radiological three-dimensional model on the basis of anatomical three-dimensional image(s) of the organism, a step (10) of producing a material framework of the phantom with the aid of a 3D printer, and a step (16) of filling the enclosures of the framework with gels. The radiological three-dimensional model groups together into radiological organs the mutually adjacent tissues having chemical compositions and densities which are similar. Each radiological organ is characterized geometrically by a radiological volume as sum of the volumes of the grouped tissues, and radiologically by a radiological class identifying the span of the chemical compositions and densities which are similar of the grouped tissues. A physical phantom manufactured by the method of production and a system for implementing the method of production. A method of experimentally determining the distribution of the doses of radiation on the phantom produced and a system for implementing the method of experimental determination.
SURGICAL TRAINING PHANTOM WITH SPECTROSCOPICALLY DISTINCT REGIONS
The present disclosure discloses anatomical phantoms having one or more distinct regions spectroscopically differentiated from each other by inclusion of spectroscopically active components each having a distinct fluorescence/emission/scattering spectrum. The distinct regions may represent different anatomical components of the corresponding real anatomical part and/or tumor mimics (or other diseased tissue) and different anatomical components of the corresponding real anatomical part, or just tumor mimics and a remainder of the anatomical part. The spectroscopically active materials may be dyes such as the cyanine dyes, or spectroscopically active nanoparticles.
BALLISTIC GEL FISH MODEL WITH IMPACT SENSING
A fish model to replace the use of live fish in hydroelectric studies is provided. The fish model is cast from ballistic gel to include the density, dimensions, and weight distribution of a selected species of living fish. The fish model is formed by additively manufacturing a mold based on a three-dimensional scan of an actual fish. The mold is then used to mass produce fish models for force measurement testing at various blade speeds, thickness, and impact angles. Each fish model includes a surrogate skin and an internal sensor for strike force measurements. Optional additional sensors include strain gauges, temperature probes, pressure probes, and load sensors, for example.
