Magnetic Stress Sensing System for Nondestructive Stress Testing of Structural Steel and Steel Truss Components Based on Existing Magnetism.

ABSTRACT: To detect the stress of steel structures and members using the existing magnetism, a magnetic stress sensing system integrating a magnetic flux induction coil, a magnetic flux measurement device, a loaded device, and data acquisition software was developed. The magnetic coupling test research was carried out for different grades of structural building and bridge steel specimens to establish the magnetic stress flux mathematical model, and the fitting equation of the magnetic flux changes with the positions of different sections of specimens was analyzed. Furthermore, a practical formula for stress detection was obtained through the experiments. Meanwhile, on these bases, the typical steel truss structure model of a Bailey beam was designed and manufactured under different working conditions, nondestructive online stress testing was carried out, and the stress of the model structure and its members was measured by strain and magnetic flux tests to obtain the curves of the test results for the stress-strain and magnetic stress flux, respectively. The results of these two methods are in good agreement with each other. The stress of the steel truss model structure was analyzed and calculated using the finite element method. The results agreed well with the experimental results from the magnetic stress sensing system-the maximum error was about 5%, which meets the requirements of engineering applications.

Project description:BackgroundWhile current guidelines recommend noninvasive testing to detect coronary artery disease, stress tests are deemed inconclusive in a quarter of cases. The strategy for risk stratification after inconclusive stress testing is not well standardized. To assess the prognostic value of vasodilator stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) parameters and CMR-based coronary revascularization in patients after inconclusive stress testing.MethodsBetween 2008 and 2020, consecutive patients with a first non-CMR inconclusive stress test referred for vasodilator stress perfusion CMR were followed for the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined by cardiovascular death or nonfatal myocardial infarction. CMR-related coronary revascularization was defined as any revascularisation occurring within 90 days after CMR. Univariable and multivariable Cox regressions were performed to determine the prognostic value of each parameter.ResultsOf 1563 patients who completed the CMR protocol, 1402 patients (66.7% male, 69.5 ± 11.0 years) completed the follow-up (median [interquartile range], 6.5 [5.6-7.5] years); 197 experienced a MACE (14.1%). Vasodilator stress CMR was well tolerated without severe adverse events. Using Kaplan-Meier analysis, inducible ischemia and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) were significantly associated with the occurrence of MACE (hazard ratio, HR: 2.88 [95% CI 2.18-3.81]; and HR: 1.46 [95% CI 1.16-1.89], both p < 0.001; respectively). In multivariable Cox regression, the presence and extent of inducible ischemia were independent predictors of a higher incidence of MACE (HR: 2.53 [95% CI 1.89-3.40]; and HR: 1.58 [95% CI 1.47-1.71]; both p < 0.001; respectively). After adjustment, the extent of inducible ischemia showed the best improvement in model discrimination above traditional risk factors (C-statistic 0.75 [95% CI 0.69-0.81] with C-statistic improvement: 0.12). The study suggested no benefit of CMR-related coronary revascularization in reducing MACE.ConclusionsIn patients with a first non-CMR inconclusive stress test, vasodilator stress CMR has good prognostic value to predict MACE offering an incremental prognostic value over traditional risk factors.

Project description:Background: Cardiac magnetic resonance perfusion imaging during vasodilator stress is an established modality in patients with suspected and known coronary artery disease (CAD). Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of fast-Strain-Encoded-MRI (fast-SENC) for the diagnostic classification and risk stratification of patients with ischemic heart disease. Methods: Perfusion and fast-SENC cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images were retrospectively analyzed in 111 patients who underwent stress CMR. The average myocardial perfusion score index, global and segmental longitudinal and circumferential strain (GLS and GCS and SLS and SCS, respectively), were measured at rest and during stress. The combination of SLS and SCS was referred to as segmental aggregate strain (SAS). Segments exhibiting perfusion defects or SAS impairment during stress were defined as "ischemic." All-cause mortality, non-fatal infarction, and urgent revascularization were deemed as our combined clinical endpoint. Results: During adenosine stress testing, 44 of 111 (39.6%) patients exhibited inducible perfusion abnormalities. During a mean follow-up of 1.94 ± 0.65 years, 25 (22.5%) patients reached the combined endpoint (death in n = 2, infarction in n = 3 and urgent revascularization in n = 20). Inducible perfusion defects were associated with higher number of segments with inducible SAS reduction ≥6.5% (χ2 = 37.8, AUC = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.71-0.87, p < 0.001). In addition, patients with inducible perfusion defects or SAS impairment exhibited poorer outcomes (AUCPerf = 0.81 vs. AUCSAS = 0.74, p = NS vs. each other, and χ2 = 30.8, HR = 10.3 and χ2 = 9.5, HR = 3.5, respectively, p < 0.01 for both). Conclusion: Purely quantitative strain analysis by fast-SENC during vasodilator stress was related to the diagnosis of ischemia by first-pass perfusion and is non-inferior for the risk stratification of patients with ischemic heart disease. This may bear clinical implications, especially in patients with contraindications for contrast agent administration.
