Synthesis of an adaptive cylindrical gear with arched teeth with two contact zones spaced along the length of the tooth by V. N. Syzrantsev, A. I. Starikov

“…The most promising in terms of implementation in the industry method of cutting arched teeth with a circular cutter head by the rolling method with a single division on CNC machines. Solved and illustrated by examples of the problem of calculating the parameters of the process of shaping the surfaces of arched teeth, which ensure the passage of two active lines in the meshing of the teeth through the given centers of the contact patches and the law of change of the transfer function required for the implementation of the approximate nature of the meshing.…”

Cryptic Early Gastric Carcinoma in Gastric Stump: Challenges in Diagnostic Evaluation by Subramanya Sakaleshpura Mallikarjunappa, Shriram Jakate

“…Subsequent completion gastrectomy showed no grossly visible tumor and required extensive initial and additional sampling of the anastomosis and the surrounding stomach to locate a small focus of invasive adenocarcinoma limited to the mucosa (“early gastric carcinoma”). This case illustrates a known complication of partial gastrectomy and highlights challenges in diagnostic evaluation of early gastric carcinoma after gastrectomy.…”

Free Vibration and Hardening Behavior of Truss Core Sandwich Beam by J. E. Chen, W. Zhang, M. Sun, M. H. Yao

“…The influences of strut radius and core height on the linear natural frequencies and hardening behaviors of the beam are studied. It is illustrated that the first-order natural frequency decreases continuously and the second-order and third-order natural frequencies initially increase and then decrease with the increase of strut radius, and the first three natural frequencies all increase with the rise of the core height. …”
