3D printing model studies confirmed that cerebral fold formation is due to unstable cortical deformation

The human brain has obvious peaks and valleys, which are easy to explain from an evolutionary point of view, but it is difficult to understand the details of the formation of the brain folds. According to the Harvard University website, researchers at the school collaborated with Finnish and French scientists to prove that although many molecular processes are important, the brain instability is the mechanism of mechanical instability of the cortical deformation.

From an evolutionary perspective, the reason why human brain folds are like this is to install a larger cortex in a small space, reduce the length of neuronal branches, and improve cognitive function. When humans are pregnant for about 20 weeks, the fetal brain begins to wrinkle, and until about one and a half years of birth, the brain folds are completed. L. Maha Dewen, a professor of applied mathematics at the School of Engineering and Applied Science at Harvard University, found that during brain development, the expansion of the cortex relative to the underlying white matter causes stress and mechanical instability. Stabilization causes it to form local folds.

The researchers published a paper in the journal Nature and Physics that they used the brain data of human fetuses to test the theory. According to the 3D magnetic resonance image, they made a three-dimensional colloidal model of a smooth fetal brain by 3D printing, applying a thin layer of elastic glue on the surface, imitating the cortex, and then immersing the colloidal brain into a layer that can be The solution absorbed by the gel causes the outer layer to swell relative to the inside, simulating the expansion of the cortex. Within a few minutes, the pressure causes the colloid brain to form folds, and the folds and shapes are like a real brain.

The similarity of the expansion surprised the researchers. “When I put the model in solution, I knew that it would wrinkle, but I didn’t expect it to be so similar. It looked like a real brain.” The paper co-author and postdoctoral researcher Zheng Junyong said, “The shape of the human brain is folds.” The direction provides a reference. Our model is identical in shape and curvature to the human brain, so the resulting folds are very consistent with the real fetal brain."

The function is usually related to the structure, so understanding how the brain folds form, helps reveal the inner workings of the brain, and clarifies the brain-related diseases. Zheng Junyong also pointed out that the brains of people and people are not exactly the same, but as healthy people, the main folds should be the same. If a part of the brain develops incorrectly, or the entire brain shape is disturbed, it may not be able to form major folds at the correct position, resulting in brain dysfunction.

Cross Flow Cooling Fan

The Cross  Flow Cooling Fan is mainly used for the cooling and increasing capacity of the dry type transformer and the cooling and cooling of the products such as electronic equipment, distribution cabinet, high and low, pressure switch cabinet and so on. The use of cross flow cooling fan can improve the output power 40-50% of dry-type transformers, thereby greatly improving the bearing capacity of dry-type transformers and prolonging the service life of dry-type transformers, which is the most economical and effective way adopted by domestic and foreign manufacturers. I produced the cross flow cooling fan air volume, low noise, further improve the pressure, reduce energy consumption, the shell is made of high quality Aluminum Alloy materials, compact structure, beautiful appearance, convenient installation, long service life, so as to cross flow cooling fan long time in a bad environment inferior smooth operation provides a reliable security.

Cross Flow Cooling Fan

Product Description

Use condition of cooling fan:

1, the ambient temperature should be 75º C ≥ -40º C.

2. The industrial gases of the cooling fan are not allowed to have strong acids, strong bases and various solutions.

3, sand dust and other debris are not allowed to fall into the fan, so as to avoid the destruction of the fan and the fracture of the fan leaf.

Installation and maintenance of the cooling fan in this section:

1, before installation, should first check whether the damage, deformation, such as damage or deformation should be repaired and installed.

2, and then check the parts and screws are loose; between the blade and the cylinder whether a collision or shift, if encounter or shift should be adjusted before installation.

3. After the cooling fan is installed, the test machine should be carried out, and the fan should be used on line after the fan is running normally.

4. When the fan is reused for a long time, the wind turbine should be checked and tested without abnormal phenomenon, so it can be used online.

5. After the installation of the fan, the wiring should be sealed in order to prevent the connection leakage to cause the short circuit destroyed motor.
