A 2-year-old, male, Burmese cat was evaluated for chronic progressive hindlimb weakness, ataxia and urinary incontinence. Radiographic examination, myelography and magnetic resonance imaging defined congenital vertebral anomalies and a space-occupying intradural, extramedullary mass. A dermoid sinus was subsequently identified dorsal to the affected spine. Surgical excision of the tract necessitated a dorsal laminectomy and removal of a 1-cm diameter intradural dermoid sinus 'cyst' that contained hair and sebaceous debris. The cat recovered hindlimb function after surgery and remains asymptomatic 50 months after surgery except for a persistent inability to urinate voluntarily.
For improving the wear properties of NiCrAlY, the 10 wt %, 20 wt % and 30 wt % ZrO2-added NiCrAlY samples were prepared by ultrasonic-assisted direct laser deposition, respectively. The results showed that the ultrasonic-assisted direct laser deposition can realize the ZrO2-added NiCrAlY preparation. Furthermore, due to the cavitation effect and agitation of the ultrasound in the molten pool, ultrasonic-assisted could make the upper surface of the samples smoother and flatter, and it also improved the microstructural homogeneity. The microstructure was mainly composed of columnar dendrites, and most of ZrO2 particles were located in the intergranular regions. The principal phase constituents were found to contain γ-Ni and t-NiZr2, and the amorphous (Ni, Zr) intermetallic phase generated, because of more rapid solidification after ultrasound assisted. The microhardness was improved slightly with the increase of ZrO2 contents, rising from 407.9 HV (10% ZrO2) to 420.4 HV (30% ZrO2). Correspondingly, wear mass loss was decreased with the maximum drop 22.7% of 30% ZrO2 compared to that of 10% ZrO2, and wear mechanisms were mainly abrasive wear with slightly adhesive wear. After applying ultrasound, the oxide islands in samples disappeared, and more ceramic particles were retained. Thus, the hardness and wear performance of the samples were improved.
In this paper, we design a kind of negative pressure vacuum recovery hood, arranged at the front of the spray gun nozzle by CFD simulation; this addresses the paint mist pollution problem of the robot spraying on the outer plate of the ship, and the nozzle is arranged at the center of the recovery hood. Three vacuum recovery hood schemes are designed as follows: Scheme A, a hemispherical recovery hood with a diameter of 1.2 m; Scheme B, with a diameter of 1.6 m; Scheme C, with a diameter of 2.0 m. The recovery vacuum suction holes of the three recovery hoods are arranged differently. Firstly, a mathematical model of the spraying jet for the case of 0.48 mm diameter nozzle was established, and the established nozzle jet flow field model was verified to be feasible through case simulation analysis and experimental comparison. Secondly, a detailed discussion and analysis of the simulation process was conducted focusing on Scheme A. During the simulation of Scheme A, it was found that: the air velocity at the inlet surface and the kinetic energy of the paint mist had a large impact on the simulation effect, so it is necessary to try to further improve the structure of the recovery hood. Finally, the further simulation analysis of Scheme B and Scheme C shows that Scheme C > Scheme B > Scheme A in terms of the paint mist recovery effect. It can be seen that the use of Scheme C as a shipyard robotic spray paint mist recovery shows better results, which provides a theoretical scheme for shipyards to achieve paint mist anti-fouling as soon as possible.
A mathematical model of the cavity flow of the fan nozzle, a mathematical model of jet atomisation, and a simplified physical model of the equivalent entity are established. A simulation of the spraying flow at different spraying pressures is carried out using a 0.48 calibre nozzle as a case study, and compared with experimental data; error results between 4.3% and 7.5% indicate the simulation means used are reliable and the simulation model is valid. The simulation means include using the effective simulation model to further explore the evaluation index of atomisation characteristics; in the critical Weber number on the impact of atomised particles, analysis of the impact of the critical Weber number on the diameter of atomised particles and the speed of movement, and determining the critical Weber number; atomisation spraying effect, for atomisation pressure on atomised particle diameter, speed of movement, impact kinetic energy, deposition rate, and liquid film growth, etc. The results show that, in the existing high-pressure airless spraying equipment within the range of permissible pressure 6~16 MPa, with the increase in atomisation pressure, the better the atomisation effect of the paint, the better the atomised particle spraying adhesion deposition rate of the paint, and the better the overall spraying effect.
