Abstract Background Foreign bodies may be embedded or left behind in the oral cavity during oral surgical procedure. The loss of instruments such as impression material, surgical gauze, and broken injection needles are commonly reported in the dental field. These complications are generally symptomatic and show signs of inflammation, pain, and purulent discharge. Accidental breakage of suture needles is a rare but potentially dangerous event. Case presentation In this report, we present one case of lost suture needle during the procedure of flap operation at local dental clinic and its successful removal under local/general anesthesia administration via CBCT with a help of two reference needles to localize the 6-0 nylon needle and consulting with the clinician. Conclusion CT scanning taken while mouth-closing may not be accurate with regard to real location measurement performed while mouth-opening. If so, other up-to-date radiographic devices and methods to retrieve a needle are recommended.

Location Measurement

With the development of industrial automation, location measurement of 3D objects is becoming more and more important, especially as it can provide necessary positional parameters for the manipulator to grasp the object accurately. In view of the disabled object which is in widespread use currently, its image is captured to obtain positional parameters and transmitted to manipulators in industry. The above process is delayed, affecting the work efficiency of the manipulator. A method for calculating the position information of target object in motion is proposed. This method uses monocular vision technology to track 3D moving objects，then uses contour sorting method to extract the minimum constrained contour rectangle, and combines the video alignment technology to realize the tracking. Thus, the measurement error is reduced. The experimental results and analysis show that the adopted measurement method is effective.

Abstract Aiming at the problems of the traditional fault location measurement method for sensor nodes, such as more energy consumption and longer measurement time, a fault location measurement method for sensor nodes based on fuzzy control algorithm is designed and proposed. First of all, the fuzzy control algorithm is analyzed; then the clustering based on cluster head diagnosis is carried out for the network, that is, the nodes that meet the cluster head conditions and are set as normal cluster heads are selected as cluster heads. Finally, combined with the fuzzy control algorithm, the fault location of each cluster member node is measured directly by cluster head nodes. The simulation results show that the proposed method has good performance.

This paper presents the modeling and analysis of a novel vibration suppression device. This reflector system exerts inertial forces, induced by tuned pendular motion, to control translational vibration of a primary system. Tuning of the reflector critically depends on the parameters of the pendula and on the rotational speed at which they are spun about an axis oriented parallel to the undesired motion. Consequently, one of its most appealing attributes is this devices’s ability to be tuned to, and thus actively track, the dominant frequency of disturbance forces. The paper describes how governing equations from an integrated physical model are developed using a bond graph approach and then used to derive relations applicable in design of an inertial reflector system. It is shown how the model supports component selection and tradeoff studies as well as simulation. Experimental results from testing of a laboratory realization of a prototype system are used to verify the design and to compare with simulation of a mathematical model. The results from the laboratory demonstrate the ability of the inertial reflector to control steady and transient vibration, and the favorable results suggest extended investigation for active vibration control situations. In particular, applications in low frequency vibration mitigation are promising.
