Reconstructed Order Analysis-Based Vibration Monitoring under Variable Rotation Speed by Using Multiple Blade Tip-Timing Sensors.

ABSTRACT: On-line vibration monitoring is significant for high-speed rotating blades, and blade tip-timing (BTT) is generally regarded as a promising solution. BTT methods must assume that rotating speeds are constant. This assumption is impractical, and blade damages are always formed and accumulated during variable operational conditions. Thus, how to carry out BTT vibration monitoring under variable rotation speed (VRS) is a big challenge. Angular sampling-based order analyses have been widely used for vibration signals in rotating machinery with variable speeds. However, BTT vibration signals are well under-sampled, and Shannon's sampling theorem is not satisfied so that existing order analysis methods will not work well. To overcome this problem, a reconstructed order analysis-based BTT vibration monitoring method is proposed in this paper. First, the effects of VRS on BTT vibration monitoring are analyzed, and the basic structure of angular sampling-based BTT vibration monitoring under VRS is presented. Then a band-pass sampling-based engine order (EO) reconstruction algorithm is proposed for uniform BTT sensor configuration so that few BTT sensors can be used to extract high EOs. In addition, a periodically non-uniform sampling-based EO reconstruction algorithm is proposed for non-uniform BTT sensor configuration. Next, numerical simulations are done to validate the two reconstruction algorithms. In the end, an experimental set-up is built. Both uniform and non-uniform BTT vibration signals are collected, and reconstructed order analysis are carried out. Simulation and experimental results testify that the proposed algorithms can accurately capture characteristic high EOs of synchronous and asynchronous vibrations under VRS by using few BTT sensors. The significance of this paper is to overcome the limitation of conventional BTT methods of dealing with variable blade rotating speeds.

Project description:ImportanceSocial perception by laypersons of people who have undergone rhinoplasty primarily for cosmetic purposes has not been fully described.ObjectiveTo evaluate the social perception of patients who have undergone cosmetic rhinoplasty.Design, setting, and participantsPreoperative images of 4 patients with dorsal hump and tip ptosis were selected using the Delphi method. Computer simulations of dorsal hump reduction and tip rotation, alone or in combination, were performed. Using the Qualtrics internet-based survey platform, laypersons blinded to the purpose of the study viewed randomized original and simulated images and estimated the age, approachability, perceived success, overall health, intelligence, and rated their attractiveness on a visual analog scale from 0 to 100.Main outcomes and measuresComparison of responses (mean [SD] score) for each of the 3 types of simulated image against the original image employing a pairwise comparison of means (Dunnett test).ResultsAfter excluding 27 (4%) invalid responses, a total of 813 respondents (593 women and 220 men) were included in the study. The mean (SD) age was 44.6 (16.2) years. A total of 628 (77%) respondents were white and the observed highest level of education was a bachelor's degree (193 [24%]) or having attended college but without a diploma (194 [24%]). A significant age reduction (31 [10] years; 95% CI, -2.5 to 0; P?=?.04) and an increase in approachability (64 [22]; 95% CI, 0.7-5.8; P?=?.009), attractiveness (60 [22]; 95% CI, 4.0-9.4; P?<?.001), and health (70 [19]; 95% CI, 0.7-5.2; P?=?.006) for the simulation involving hump reduction was observed. When combined simulation of dorsum and tip rotation were tested, only significant increases in attractiveness (60 [23]; 95% CI, 3.6-9.0; P?<?.001) and health (69 [19]; 95% CI, 0.1-4.6; P?=?.03) were seen. No significant association was found for any of the responses when the tip alone was rotated. The Wilks ? varied slightly below 1.0 showing significant P values (P?<?.05) for all variance and covariance (respondent particulars).Conclusions and relevanceThough rhinoplasty procedures for nasal cosmesis involving both the nasal dorsum and tip were perceived to make a person more attractive and healthier, these results suggest that manipulation of the dorsum is more strongly associated with perception of the nose.Level of evidenceNA.

Project description:BackgroundThe role of meniscal lesions and repair in combination with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and reconstruction has not been extensively investigated in vivo and under weightbearing conditions.PurposeThe purposes of this study were to (1) compare the in vivo knee kinematics between patients with ACL tear and those with combined ACL and medial meniscal tears and (2) investigate kinematic differences between isolated ACL reconstruction and ACL reconstruction plus medial meniscal repair (MR). It was hypothesized that concomitant posterior horn medial meniscal tear and ACL deficiency would affect knee internal-external rotation and anterior-posterior translation but MR would restore these parameters.Study designControlled laboratory study.MethodsNineteen patients who underwent ACL reconstruction were included: 10 had intact menisci (IM group) and 9 had a medial meniscal injury that was repaired during ACL reconstruction using an all-inside technique (MR group). Preoperatively and 18 months postoperatively, active knee kinematics under weightbearing conditions was evaluated during a single-leg squat using a dynamic biplane x-ray imaging system. The general linear model was used to investigate the differences between group (IM vs MR) and time (preoperative vs follow-up) and their interactions.ResultsTibial internal rotation was higher in the MR group than the IM group both before and after surgery (P = .007). Knee valgus rotation was higher in the MR group preoperatively (P < .001), while no differences were found postoperatively because of an increase of valgus rotation in the IM group, which was significant in the descendant phase (P < .001). Preoperatively, the IM group showed a more medial tibial translation compared with the MR group in the descendant phase (P = .006).ConclusionWhen performing a single-leg squat, patients with ACL-deficient knees and a medial meniscal tear demonstrated a more valgus rotation, tibial internal rotation, and lateral tibial translation versus those with intact menisci. After ACL reconstruction and MR, these patients demonstrated significantly higher tibial internal rotation when compared with patients who underwent isolated ACL reconstruction.Clinical relevanceSurgeons should be aware that MR does not fully restore knee kinematics in vivo and under weightbearing conditions in the context of ACL reconstruction.
