FE analysis on tube hydroforming of small diametr ZM21 magnesium alloy tube
Tube hydroforming (THF) is one of the plasticity processing methods. Tubular parts, for instance automotive components are expanded by forces such as internal pressure and axial compression in order to deform an objective shape. THF has less restriction on shape and size of workpieces owing to adopting the liquid tool. The demand of a small diameter magnesium alloy tubular parts have been increased for applying small medical and electronic devices. In this study, it was investigated that influence of process conditions such as processing temperature, internal pressure and axial feeding amount on formability of small diameter ZM21 magnesium alloy tube with outer diameter of 2.0mm and thickness of 0.20mm. Furthermore, the processing conditions for improving the formability of material in THF were examined. For prior evaluation of deformation characteristics in the warm THF of small diameter ZM21 magnesium alloy tube, a finite element (FE) simulation was conducted. The FE method (FEM) code was used LS-DYNA 3D for analysis of the FE model of the tube and the dies. The material characteristics were obtained by tensile test and fracture test. From FE analysis results, it was elucidated that effect of the processing temperature, the variable internal pressure and the axial feeding amount on deformation behavior. The formability of ZM21 magnesium alloy tube was improved by processing at 250 C. The difference of deformation characteristic between FE results and experimental results was compared. As the results, the processing condition which could improve the formability of ZM21 tube was clarified using this FE model. The effect of adding the straightening stage in the loading path after the preform on formability was investigated. The thinning of the wall thickness of the tube was inhibited by calibration after the axial feeding
Del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points in 29 qG-deformation
families grouped into six unprojection cascades (this overlaps with work of
Fujita and Yasutake), we tabulate their biregular invariants, we give good
model constructions for surfaces in all families as degeneracy loci in rep
quotient varieties and we prove that precisely 26 families admit
qG-degenerations to toric surfaces. This work is part of a program to study
mirror symmetry for orbifold del Pezzo surfaces.Comment: 42 pages. v2: model construction added of last remaining surface,

Interventricular septum hematoma during cineventriculography
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Intraseptal hematoma and subsequent myocardial infarction due to accidental contrast agent deposition complicating diagnostic cineventriculography is a previously undescribed complication of angiography.</p> <p>Case presentation</p> <p>A 61 year old man was admitted at intensive care unit because of unstable angina pectoris 1 hour after coronary angiography. Transthoracic contrast echocardiography showed a non-perfused area in the middle of interventricular septum with an increase of thickening up to 26 mm. Review of cineventriculography revealed contrast enhancement in the interventricular septum after contrast medium injection and a dislocation of the pigtail catheter tip. Follow up by echocardiography and MRI showed, that intramural hematoma has resolved after 6 weeks. After 8 weeks successful stent implantation in LAD was performed and after 6 month the patient had a normal LV-function without ischemic signs or septal thickening demonstrated by stressechocardiography.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>A safe and mobile position of the pigtail catheter during ventriculography in the middle of the LV cavity should be ensured to avoid this potentially life-threatening complication. For assessment and absolute measurement of intramural hematoma contrast-enhanced echocardiography is more feasible than MRI and makes interchangeable results.</p
