Research on Detection Technology for Breakwater Structures Based on Multi-sensor Information Fusion by LIN Xiaobin, YANG Zhimin

“…With the rapid development of port facilities,the safety and stability of port wading projects have attracted increasingly more attention in recent years.Under the influences of waves and typhoons on port breakwaters,the abovewater structures of breakwaters are damaged,and the underwater ones are subject to structural fractures,damage,and deformation.To address the problem,this paper proposes a method characterized by data fusion and a principle of multi-sensor integration of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) lidar system,SeaBat T50-P multibeam echosounder,GPS RTK,and BV5000-1350 three-dimensional scanning sonar measurement system.A feasibility study of the method is then carried out.The test shows that through data fusion,this method achieves complementary advantages and obtains more detailed and accurate data.The proposed method provides reliable technical support for the detection of port breakwaters and other underwater facilities at ports.…”

Postoperative radiotherapy improves survival in completely resected non-small cell lung cancer with pathologic N2 stage IIIA and positive lymph node count greater than one: a SEER-... by Diyang Zhu, Yuanyuan Xiao, Yuanyuan Xiao, Shancheng He, Shancheng He, Baochang Xie, Baochang Xie, Wenqi Zhao, Wenqi Zhao, Yuhui Xu

“…PLN counts were stratified into two categories: ≤1 and &gt;1.ResultsAmong the 1,471 patients included in the study, 613 (41.67%) received PORT, while 858 (58.33%) did not. PORT was associated with a significantly higher 1- and 3-year OS (89.96% and 68.49%, respectively) compared to the non-PORT group (87.44% and 61.88%, respectively, P = 0.03). …”

Silicon‐Based Optical Switch with Ge2Sb2Te5‐Enabled Phase‐Shifting Region by Xiaojun Chen, Jiao Lin, Ke Wang

“…In the results, it is shown that the proposed device has a 3 dB operation bandwidth of about 163.2 GHz (1.394 nm) and an extinction ratio of about 19.06 dB for the drop port and about 20.25 dB for the through port. The loss at the central operational wavelength is about 1.3 and 1.04 dB for the through port and the drop port, respectively, and the largest loss over the entire operation bandwidth for these two ports is 1.66 and 2.35 dB. …”
