Traditional Chinese cavity wall often suffers in-plane and out-of-plane damages in natural disasters like gales and earthquakes.However, the seismic and wind resistance of the Super Chaise cavity wall, an enclosure structure, are seldom studied in the engineering field.Instead, the disaster prevention and relief efforts are concentrated on the stru
We propose a novel metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm for CT images that completes a corrupted sinogram along the metal trace region.When Upper Spray Arm Shaft metal implants are located inside a field of view, they create a barrier to the transmitted X-ray beam due to the high attenuation of metals, which significantly degrades the image qua
