Comparison of Long-Term Outcomes and Refractive Stability following SMILE versus SMILE Combined with Accelerated Cross-Linking (SMILE XTRA) by Sheetal Brar, Skanda Sriganesh, Smith Snehal Sute, Sri Ganesh

“…Contrary to the belief, combination of prophylactic CXL with SMILE did not result in a hyperopic shift in the long term. No eye in either group encountered postoperative ectasia; however, further follow-up is suggested to establish the long-term effects on refractive and corneal stability following SMILE XTRA, as all the eyes treated in this group were borderline.…”

Micro-Defects-Related Low Cycle Fatigue Mechanical Model of the Nuclear-Grade S30408 Stainless Steel by Huiping Liu, Mingkun Xiao, Jiannan Hao, Xinjie Ma, Ni Jiang, Qing Peng, Chao Ye

“…The traditional Basquin formula was used to predict the fatigue life of these fatigue samples. At the same time, a quantitative mechanical model related to the characteristic micro-defects parameter KAM and the Vickers hardness (H_v) was established for the S30408 stainless steel during the low cycle fatigue damage process, and the prediction accuracy of the Vickers hardness is greater than 90%, which is significant and useful for the fatigue life prediction of the 304 stainless steels used in nuclear systems and the safe operation of the reactors.…”
