Implementation of a clinical decision support system for interpretation of laboratory tests for patients

The paper presents the results of the development and implementation of an expert system that automatically generates doctors' letters based on the results of laboratory tests. Medical knowledge is expressed using a first order predicate based language. The implementation of the system allowed increasing the number of patients who refer to a doctor after laboratory tests by 14%. A qualitative study with 100 patients demonstrated a high acceptance of the system. The majority (82%) of the patients reported that they trust the system and follow its advice to visit a doctor if necessary

Experimental study of stress-strain state of adhesive joints steel/carbon fiber under tension with a bend by digital image correlation

This paper presents a study of characteristics of an evolution of deformation fields in surface layers of medium-carbon low-alloy specimens under compression. The experiments were performed on the "Universal Testing Machine 4500" using a digital stereoscopic image processing system Vic-3D. A transition between stages is reflected as deformation redistribution on the near-surface layers
