The article investigates the development of a manufacturing route for highly porous titanium foams suitable for craniofacial surgery applications, particularly in cranioplasties. The study focuses on the polyurethane replication method for foam production and emphasizes reducing residual gas content, as it significantly affects the mechanical properties and suitability for approval of the foams. Various factors such as starting materials, solvent debinding, heating schedules, and hydrogen atmosphere are analyzed for their impact on residual gas content. It is shown that significant reductions in residual gas content can only be achieved by reworking each step of the process. A combination of initial solvent debinding of the PU template with dimethyl sulphoxide, reduction of suspension additives, use of coarser Gd. 1 powders, and an integrated debinding and sintering process under partial hydrogen atmosphere achieves a significant reduction in residual gas content. This way, the potential for producing titanium foams that comply with relevant standards for craniofacial implants is demonstrated.
In this paper, the performance of different continuous-time and discrete-time models of the electrical subsystem of induction machines and permanent-magnet synchronous machines as well as methods based on them for decoupling the direct and
quadrature axis components of the stator current are investigated and compared. The focus here is on inverter-fed, pulse width modulated drives when operated with a relatively large product of stator frequency and sampling time, where significant
differences between the models and decoupling methods used come to light. Recommendations for a discrete-time model to be used uniformly in the future are made, as well as statements on whether feedforward or feedback decoupling structures are better suited and whether state controllers improve decoupling measures for very steep speed ramps. Simulation studies and measurement results support the statements made above.
Many commonly well-performing convolutional neural network models have shown to be susceptible to input data perturbations, indicating a low model robustness. To reveal model weaknesses, adversarial attacks are specifically optimized to generate small, barely perceivable image perturbations that flip the model prediction. Robustness against attacks can be gained by using adversarial examples during training, which in most cases reduces the measurable model attackability. Unfortunately, this technique can lead to robust overfitting, which results in non-robust models. In this paper, we analyze adversarially trained, robust models in the context of a specific network operation, the downsampling layer, and provide evidence that robust models have learned to downsample more accurately and suffer significantly less from downsampling artifacts, aka. aliasing, than baseline models. In the case of robust overfitting, we observe a strong increase in aliasing and propose a novel early stopping approach based on the measurement of aliasing.
