Abstract:
A method for producing multiple temporal frames of a time-resolved contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiogram from a subject using an MR contrast agent by repeatedly applying RF pulses and sampling data in the corresponding image k-space along spiral trajectories that start at the k-space center and spiral outward toward the k-space edge.
Abstract:
A generation Node B (gNB) configured for Sub-Band Full Duplex (SBFD) communication in a fifth-generation new radio (5G NR) network may communicate with two or more User Equipment (UEs) during SBFD symbols. During any one or more of the SBFD symbols, a downlink transmission may be transmitted to at least one of the UEs simultaneously with reception of an uplink transmission from at least another of the UEs. The SBFD symbols may span the carrier bandwidth and may comprise at least a downlink (DL) subband and an uplink (UL) subband within the carrier bandwidth. To communicate with the two or more UE simultaneously during the SBFD symbols, the gNB may configure the UEs that are to transmit during one or more of the SBFD symbols with timing-advance offset information to be used by the UEs to adjust a configured timing-advance for initiating an uplink transmission relative to downlink symbol timing at a UE within the one or more SBFD symbols. A timing-advance offset may delay an uplink transmission of during one or more of the SBFD symbols that follows a downlink symbol. This offset or delay, relative to the timing-advance, may provide a UL-DL switching time gap when the SBFD symbol follows a DL symbol.
Abstract:
An imitation ceramic vase manufactured by a method which includes the following steps. (1) Applying a primer layer material on a vase made by a non-ceramic material, and letting the primer layer material to dry. (2) Applying at least one layer of first middle layer material on the primer layer material on the non-ceramic material vase. (3) Applying at least a layer of second middle layer material on the first middle layer material, and letting the second middle layer material to dry, the second middle layer material having a color which is different from that of the first middle later material. (4) Applying a surface layer material on at least one of the first middle layer material and the second middle layer material, and letting the surface layer material to dry. The surface layer material is a polyurethane imitating porcelain surface coating or an ultraviolet imitating porcelain surface coating.
Abstract:
For optimal image quality in susceptibility-weighted imaging and accurate quantification of susceptibility, it is necessary to isolate the local field generated by local magnetic sources (such as iron) from the background field that arises from imperfect shimming and variations in magnetic susceptibility of surrounding tissues (including air). We present a nonparametric background field removal method based on projection onto dipole fields in which the background field inside an ROI is decomposed into a field originating from dipoles outside the ROI using the projection theorem in Hilbert space.
Abstract:
A dual horsehead block and tackle beam pumping unit including a steel frame, a walking beam installed on top of the steel frame, horseheads with movable pulleys, pulling wire ropes, load wire ropes, damping extension springs, a reversing reducer, an output drum, a counterweight box, reversing brake mechanisms, and an electric motor is provided for single well and dual well operations. The horseheads are installed on opposing ends of the walking beam. The movable pulley of each horsehead has a pulling wire rope. The first and second ends of each pulling wire rope are connected to the damping extension spring and the output drum respectively. A lower end of the load wire rope hanging on the right hand side horsehead is connected to the counterweight box. On the bottom of the steel frame, the electric motor, the reversing reducer, and the output drum are installed on a base.

Abstract:
Provided are a self-cleaning air filtering material and a preparation method therefor. The air filtering material comprises: a submicron fiber layer (2) at an inflow surface for surface filtration, a supporting area (3) for supporting and a mixed area (5) between the submicron fiber layer (2) and the supporting area (3), wherein the mixed area (5) is formed by contacting and mixing part of the fibers in the submicron fiber layer (2) and the supporting area (3) with each other during the one-step formation of the submicron fiber layer (2) and the supporting area (3) by passing through a double-layer headbox.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for Orthogonal Cover Code (OCC) generation, and OCC mapping, includes generating the first group of OCC sequences, which is used to generate the first group of OCC sequences; generating the second group of OCC sequences, which is used to mirror the columns of the first group of OCC sequences to generate the second group of OCC sequences; generating the third group of OCC sequences, which is used to perform cyclic shift on the column vectors of the first group of OCC sequences to generate the third group of OCC sequences; and generating the fourth group of OCC sequences, which is used to mirror the columns of the third group of OCC sequences to generate the fourth group of OCC sequences.
