An Optimization Model for Shell Plate Seam Landing Using Minimum Manufacturing Cost and a Solution by Genetic Algorithm by Ho Rim Pae, Min Hyok Jon, Chol Jun Pak

“…In this paper, a new optimization model and its solution method for the landing of seams and butts (for convenience, seam and butt are simply called seam) on the ship hull surface are proposed in order to improve the shipbuilding efficiency. The minimum manufacturing cost of ship hull shell plates (SHSPs) is the objective function, the rules and requirements for the seam position and the size of a single shell plate are the constraints, and the position and shape of the seam are the design variables. …”

Reconfiguration of dynamic brain networks in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: Linking neurovascular coupling and cardiac dysfunction by Xiulin Liang, Qinghua Zhang, Chuanlong Zhang, Jingjing Liu, Pengcheng Sang, Qing Mao, Lei Wang

“…Results: (1) Static network topology properties exhibited significantly decreased local network efficiency among patients with HFpEF. The connectivity strength and information processing efficiency were diminished in the left parahippocampal gyrus, left cingulate gyrus, and right insular gyrus brain regions, and improved in the left thalamus, right fusiform gyrus, and right precuneus regions. (2) Dynamic network topology properties of patients with HFpEF showed decreased variability in critical nodes and brain subregions (e.g., the superior frontal gyrus, left amygdala, and left fusiform gyrus) and compensatory increases in the variability of specific regions (e.g., right insular gyrus, right postcentral gyrus, and right temporal gyrus). (3) In HFpEF, the static and dynamic functional brain network topology properties of the fusiform gyrus, cingulate gyrus, superior temporal gyrus, precuneus, parahippocampal gyrus, insular gyrus, and amygdala regions were significantly correlated with cardiac structural and functional indices, such as LVDd, LVMI, and E/e′ ratio. …”
