The rise in global temperatures has made it increasingly difficult to maintain a controlled indoor climate without excessive electrical energy consumption. Economic boundaries further strain the energy supply in many regions worldwide. This study investigates an innovative cooling application using ternary hybrid nanofluids (THNFs) in a roof structure modeled as a three-dimensional (3D) prism with an isosceles triangular base. A circular cylinder, capable of counterclockwise rotation, is integrated into the channel to enhance fluid dynamics. The cooling medium consists of water-based THNFs incorporating copper, aluminum oxide (alumina), and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Numerical simulations of heat transfer and fluid flow are conducted using the non-isothermal flow interface in COMSOL Multiphysics 6.0, solving the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes and heat equations under realistic boundary conditions. Four key parameters, Reynolds number (100-500), nanomaterial shape factor (3-8.9), volume fraction of nanomaterials (1-10%), and cylinder rotational speed (0.1-0.4 m/s), are varied to assess their effects on heat distribution. The study evaluates average outlet temperature, Nusselt number, and Darcy-Weisbach friction factor.

This work investigates the effectiveness of a shape-memory alloy (SMA) in controlling the instabilities of triangular composite plates under supersonic flow. Lagoudas' quadratic polynomial hardening theory models the SMA effect. First-order piston theory was used for the aerodynamic modeling, and the reference-temperature method was used for modeling the thermal heating. The buckling and post-buckling behaviors were studied for different boundary conditions with four different layups. In addition, buckling and post-buckling of the composite plate, with and without shape memory alloy wire, has been studied. The effect of SMA wire on aeroelastic instabilities is accurately studied. The embedded SMA wire significantly increased the stability region (postpone divergence and flutter velocities) and buckling temperature. Also, the time responses of the triangular composite plate are determined at different Mach numbers, showing that by increasing the Mach number, the SMA wire can control or decrease the vibration amplitudes.

The morphology and size of nanomaterials are essential factors to consider in the nanotechnology area for various applications. However, many nanoparticle synthesis methods to produce specific morphologies tailored to certain properties involve using chemical reagents, which can lead to secondary environmental pollution. In this study, sodium lignosulfonate (NaLS) derived from oil palm's empty fruit bunch fiber served as reducing and capping agents for spherical and triangular AgNPs production via a simple and eco-friendly approach. The specific mixture surface morphology of AgNPs is formed at 50 degrees C reaction temperature and 0.2 Ag+/NaLS concentration ratio after 15 h stirring time successfully. The resulting NaLS-AgNPs have an average size of 36.88 +/- 0.5 nm and a zeta potential of -26.7 mV. The resultant AgNPs are stable and can be kept for 3 months with a few sedimentations in colloid condition.

Additive manufacturing technologies enable the production of components with lightweight cores, by means of infills with various patterns and densities. Together with reduced mass and material consumption, infill geometries must ensure that strength and stiffness conditions are fulfilled. For the proper correlation of the infill type with the loading case of the part, the mechanical behavior of the infill along all three principal axes of inertia has to be known. In this paper, the behavior in symmetric and asymmetric bending of three infill geometries, commonly used in 3D printing processes (honeycomb, grid and triangles) is analyzed. The variations of deflections as a function of force orientation are presented, showing that honeycomb and triangular structures exhibit similar behaviors along the Y and Z principal axes of inertia. Furthermore, the displacements obtained for the three types of structures are compared, in relation to the consumed volume of material. The larger displacements of the grid structure compared to the honeycomb and triangular structures are highlighted.

- BACKGROUND: Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fusion, to treat back pain caused by SIJ dysfunction, can employ open or minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques and either cylindrical (screw-shaped) or triangular (wedge-shaped) implants. Fusion nonunion sometimes explains recurrent SIJ pain following fusion and occasionally requires hardware revision. MIS revision minimizes patient pain, infection, and disability, but due to the triangular implant size and form factor, implant removal can present challenges for MIS access during the explantation and achieving good bony purchase for reinstrumentation. Here, we report a prone single-position lateral MIS/posterior mini-open procedure for triangular-implant SIJ fusion revision. METHODS: The patient is a 72-year-old female who - nderwent right SIJ fusion for lower back and leg pain sustained after a fall 2 years prior but experienced recurrent pain over the subsequent 2 years, with imaging findings of right SIJ peri-hardware lucencies and diagnostic injections confirming persistent right-sided sacroiliitis. - RESULTS: The patient underwent hardware removal using the lateral MIS incision with table-mounted tubular access and image-guided navigation to maintain exposure, plus simultaneous reinstrumentation using a navigated S2alar-iliac screw and iliac bolt construct with connecting rod through the posterior mini-open incision made for the navigation reference frame spinous process clamp. CONCLUSIONS: The use of navigation and MIS access can significantly decrease the complexity of lateral hardware removal, and mini-open navigated screw-androd constructs offer reinstrumentation options accessible to surgeons unfamiliar with specialized posterior SIJ systems.

The labyrinth side weir structure is an optimal solution to regulate and divert excess flows across rivers, and irrigation and drainage channels when the opening length of the side weir is limited. Changing the geometry of the side weir is considered one way to improve its efficiency. The present study investigates the hydraulic effects of stepped labyrinth side weirs to increase their discharge capacity. To estimate the outflow over symmetrical stepped labyrinth side weir, the discharge coefficient needs to be determined. Normal triangular labyrinth side weir in one cycle mode has been modified by increasing the crest path using different steps. A total of 417 experiments were conducted on normal and stepped side weirs for various weir opening lengths, weir heights, internal head angles, and hydraulic conditions. The results were analyzed and compared. It was found that efficiency improved, and the discharge coefficient increased as the number of the steps decreased. Furthermore, the water surface profile becomes more uniform with decreasing number of steps. A lower number of steps, smaller head angle, and high weir length produce a higher discharge coefficient by approximately 15%-35% compared to a normal triangular labyrinth side weir;in addition, the Knope length decreases by approximately 40%-70% for the same effective length. Additionally, a reliable equation to estimate the discharge coefficient of the stepped labyrinth side weir was presented. The results of this study can be used to design side weirs with high hydraulic performance when the weir-included angle selected is small or there is a lack of space.

Massive carpal loss following trauma, tumor, or infection poses a difficult reconstructive challenge. There are limited reconstructive options for such cases, particularly when the metacarpal bases are also lost. We describe a method of carpal reconstruction using closing wedge osteotomies in a triangular vascularized free fibular flap, and a proposed algorithm for the management of metacarpal instability in this setting.
