Mechanical Dynamics

Various complex shapes of dielectric electro-active polymer (DEAP) actuator have been promoted for several types of applications. In this study, the actuation and mechanical dynamics characteristics of a new core free flat DEAP soft actuator were investigated. This actuator was developed by Danfoss PolyPower. DC voltage of up to 2000 V was supplied for identifying the actuation characteristics of the actuator and compare with the existing formula. The operational frequency of the actuator was determined by dynamic testing. Then, the soft actuator has been modelled as a uniform bar rigidly fixed at one end and attached to mass at another end. Results from the theoretical model were compared with the experimental results. It was found that the deformation of the current actuator was quadratic proportional to the voltage supplied. It was found that experimental results and theory were not in good agreement for low and high voltage with average percentage error are 104% and 20.7%, respectively. The resonance frequency of the actuator was near 14 Hz. Mass of load added, inhomogeneity and initial tension significantly affected the resonance frequency of the soft actuator. The experimental results were consistent with the theoretical model at zero load. However, due to inhomogeneity, the frequency response function’s plot underlines a poor prediction where the theoretical calculation was far from experimental results as values of load increasing with the average percentage error 15.7%. Hence, it shows the proposed analytical procedure not suitable to provide accurate natural frequency for the DEAP soft actuator.

Aldosterone To Renin Ratio

AbstractThe diagnostic workup for primary aldosteronism includes a screening step using the aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) and a confirmatory step based on dynamic testing of aldosterone secretion autonomy. International guidelines suggest that precise clinical and biochemical conditions may allow the bypassing of the confirmatory step, however, data which validate hormone thresholds defining such conditions are lacking. At our tertiary center, we retrospectively examined a cohort of 173 hypertensive patients screened for PA by the ARR, of whom 120 had positive screening and passed a saline infusion test (SIT) or a captopril challenge test (CCT). Fifty-nine had PA, including 34 Conn adenomas and 25 with idiopathic aldosteronism (IA). Using a threshold of 160 pmol/l, post-SIT plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) identified PA with 86.4% sensitivity, 94.7% specificity, and a negative predictive value of 92.3%. Of those subjects with a high ARR and a PAC above 550 pmol/l, 93% had a positive SIT, while 100% of subjects with a high ARR, but a PAC under 240 pmol/l had a negative SIT. Our results thus validate the biochemical conditions defined in the French and US guidelines for bypassing the confirmatory step in the workup for PA diagnosis.
