Abstract: A radiation irradiation system and a control method therefor. On the basis of weight proportions of elements in a human body and reaction intensities the elements with a neutron and a photon, the element that has influence on simulation calculation results of the neutron and the photon in an application scenario of the radiation irradiation system is screened out, and during a simulation process, only the screened-out element is simulated, so that the calculation speed can be greatly improved, and the calculation time can be reduced.

Abstract: A cement-based artificial stone plate includes a cement-based plate body; and a metal mesh being embedded in the cement-based plate body; wherein the metal mesh is arranged with at least one fixing member, the fixing member defines a screw hole along its axis, and the screw hole of the fixing member is exposed on back of the cement-based plate body, and back of the plate body is provided with regular or irregular protrusions, between any two protrusions forms a groove, and bottom of each groove is close to the metal mesh.

Abstract: A measuring cap and bottle assembly for measuring liquids or fine particulate matter from a larger bottle into an integral measuring cup formed on top of a bottle cap with a depending skirt wall. A cooperating valve is formed between a top wall of the bottle and a flat cap wall that opens and closes upon manual rotation of the cap on the bottle. The cap is firmly snap-locked on an upper bottle neck by molded snap rings that limit movement of the cap to pure rotational movement as the cap is rotated from a closed position to an open position indicated by an arrow indicator found between the cap and the bottle. A removable cover on the bottle bottom permits the free rapid flow of liquid or material from the main body of the bottle.

Abstract: A cutlery implement having a blade and resilient handle is disclosed. The blade has a proximal end, an opposed distal end, a cutting edge and a spine. The spine is disposed on a top side of the blade portion and generally opposed to the cutting edge. The cutlery implement also includes a handle coupled to the blade proximate the distal end of the blade. The handle includes an upper handle portion and a lower handle portion. The upper handle portion is disposed at or near the spine of the blade, and the lower handle portion is coupled to the upper handle portion. Either the upper handle portion or the lower handle is formed from a resilient polymer material, and the other is formed of a generally rigid material. A cavity containing a gel is defined between the lower handle portion and the upper handle portion.

Abstract: In a casting apparatus for external skeletal and joint fixation, a plurality of articulated segments may comprise a plurality of cuboid members threaded on a continuous cord having distal ends connected to actuators. The cuboid members may be disposed between guide members threaded on the cord. Actuation of the actuators applies a tension force to the cord, thereby compressing the cuboid members together to form rigid cuboid segments and maintain the casting apparatus in a rigid configuration for skeletal and joint fixation.
