Dogs with diet-associated dilated cardiomyopathy have higher urine di-docosahexaenoyl (22:6)-bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate, a biomarker of phospholipidosis.

In dogs with diet-associated dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), we have identified electron microscopic changes suggestive of abnormal lysosomal accumulation of phospholipids and consistent with the appearance of drug-induced phospholipidosis in people and other animals. The objective of this study was to compare concentrations of urine di-docosahexaenoyl (22:6)-bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate (BMP), a biomarker of drug-induced phospholipidosis, in dogs with DCM eating high-pulse (HP) diets, dogs with DCM eating low-pulse (LP) diets, and healthy controls (control-HP and control-LP). In this cross-sectional study, voided urine was collected from client-owned dogs with DCM from September 2018 through March 2020. Urine di-22:6-BMP was measured by LC-MS-MS and normalized to urine creatinine. Normalized di-22:6-BMP concentrations were compared among groups using mixed-effects-model analysis. 53 dogs were included: DCM-HP (n = 25), DCM-LP (n = 4), control-HP (n = 10), and control-LP (n = 14). Mixed-effects models adjusted for age and sex showed that HP diet was significantly associated with higher normalized urine di-22:6-BMP concentrations. A 1-way ANOVA identified a significant difference among the 4 groups, with Tukey post hoc analysis showing that the DCM-HP group had significantly higher normalized urine di-22:6-BMP concentrations compared to the control-LP group. Normalized di-22:6-BMP concentrations were significantly positively correlated with diet pulse scores (r = 0.52). High-pulse diets were significantly associated with higher normalized urine di-22:6-BMP concentrations. These results support the possible presence of primary or secondary phospholipidosis in dogs with diet-associated DCM and provide a plausible mechanism for further investigation.

Safety and quality of life assessment at 6 months follow-up of the valvosoft pivotal study

Abstract Background Calcific Aortic stenosis (CAS) is currently the most common heart valve disease. Patients suffering from severe CAS are treated with invasive surgeries based on valve replacement. Symptoms heavily impact quality of life, including chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, fatigue, and major risks as heart failure or sudden death, and daily activities might also be strongly impacted. Purpose A prospective, multi-centre, single-arm, pivotal study (NCT05235568) was initiated in 2021 to treat severe CAS patients with Valvosoft, a medical device based on Non-Invasive Ultrasound Therapy (NIUT) intended to treat CAS in patients not eligible for immediate aortic valve replacement (SAVR/TAVR) or refusing such a treatment, to confirm safety and performance at 1-, 3-, 6- and 12 months. We present here the safety and quality of life results at 6M follow-up. Methods Valvosoft NIUT procedure is based on a trans-thoracic delivery of focused, high intensity short therapeutic ultrasound pulses, to precisely generate a cavitation bubble cloud on the aortic valve. Echocardiographic imaging enables to monitor the valve in real-time while cavitation causes both non-thermal tissue softening and calcification fractionation of the diseased valve. 60 planned subjects, suffering from severe calcific aortic stenosis, not recommended for aortic valve replacement or refusing such a procedure, were enrolled in 11 centres in Europe. Patients were awake or lightly sedated, NIUT was delivered during up to 70 minutes per patient per procedure. DSMB and CEC were installed to monitor safety, performance and effectiveness of Valvosoft device, and safety related to participation in the clinical investigation. Results Sixty high-risk patients advanced in age (85.2 ± 9.1) with multiple severe comorbidities were included. Primary safety endpoint (less than 25% MACE) was met at 30D (p=0.002). Furthermore patients experienced an overall quality of life improved. 6 minutes’ walk test increases from baseline towards 6 months with 10 %. At 6M follow-up, no stroke was reported, an average KCCQ score improvement of 17% was noticed, and NYHA class improved or stabilized for 78% of patients. The calcium score or volume on the aortic did not change pre- and post-procedure. Conclusion Valvosoft NIUT safety and quality of life improvement are proven at 6MFU, and the technology is presented as potentially disruptive, in the treatment of severe calcific aortic stenosis.

Investigation of ablation threshold and microchannel fabrication on stainless steel using ultrafast laser

ABSTRACT Ultrafast laser processing is a highly versatile tool for creating microscale structures in many materials. The ablation and micromachining characteristics of AISI 304 stainless steel were examined using a femtosecond-pulsed laser. Parameters such as power, scanning speed, transverse overlap, scanning strategies, and shielding gases were systematically varied. The ablation threshold fluence for SS 304 was calculated as 0.16 J/cm2. Two ablation regimes were observed: the gentle regime, where smooth crater walls were formed under low pulse energy (below 20 µJ), and the strong regime, characterized by rough walls created under high pulse energy (above 20 µJ). The optimal parameters for fabricating microchannels on SS 304 surfaces comprised a laser power of 100 mW, a scanning speed of 30 mm/s, a line-to-line distance of 5 µm, and a parallel scan strategy along the major axis. This study provides a practical approach for enhancing the microchannel fabrication process on stainless steel.

Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of Additive Connecting Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V Alloy by High Frequency Pulse TIG Technology

Energy-managed soliton fiber laser

Ultrafast fiber lasers constitute a flexible platform to investigate new solitary wave concepts. To surpass the low energy limitation of the conventional solitons generated in standard telecom fibers, successive breakthroughs have promoted the usage of an important frequency chirping within fiber oscillators. This lead to original solitary wave regimes such as stretched-pulse, all-normal-dispersion, and self-similar dynamics. We here revisit ultrafast fiber lasers built from standard optical fibers featuring solely anomalous dispersion. We propose a new cavity design enhancing key dissipative effects with contained frequency chirping and demonstrate the generation of high energy pulses in the few-picoseconds regime. The involved intracavity dynamics blends conventional and dissipative soliton features in an unseen way with low- and high-energy propagation regions, allowing an increased flexibility and novel scalability prospects.

Generation of multiply charged metal ions in a high current short pulse vacuum arc

We have studied the plasma composition of a high current short pulse vacuum arc discharge with different cathode materials: lanthanum, gadolinium, lead, silver, and tin. We find that for optimal vacuum arc discharge parameters – arc current pulse duration about 2 μs and amplitude about 3 kA – the maximum ion charge state is 11+ and mean ion charge state from 7.8+ for tin to 9.6+ for lanthanum. The mean ion charge state for different materials depends on the discharge voltage and the energy required for ionization to maximum charge state. The cathode surface heats to a temperature of 700 °C–1100 °C in the course of the arc current pulse, depending on the cathode material, and the cathode surface of low melting point metals such as lead and tin melts to a depth of 5 μm and 10 μm, respectively. Surface melting does not lead to change in plasma ion composition, since the ion flux from the cathode considerably exceeds the evaporated atom flux.

Pulsed Signal Duration Shaper with Adaptive Response Thresholds

His paper represents a shaper designed to restore the width of rectangular pulses transmitted over an open-optic (wireless) communication channel and having shape distortions in the form of amplitude modulation, pedestal and tightening of the front and decay. The principle of pulse width recovery is based on the formation of voltage comparator thresholds adaptive to changes in high and low pulse signal levels. Due to the use of sample-and-hold circuit (UVH - S/H circuit) in the circuit, the values of the input signal levels are stored in the previous half-periods. The threshold voltage of the comparator before its operation is formed as the output voltage of a resistive voltage divider into two inputs, one of which is supplied with the current voltage of the input signal, and the other with the voltage level of the signal recorded in the S/H circuit at the previous half-cycle of information pulses. The study presents the method for estimated error in pulse width formation from comparator bias voltages, S/H circuit and modulation changes in the shape of the information signal. The example provides quantitative estimates of the error. In the Micro Cap circuit modeling environment, a model experiment was performed, diagrams of the signal source and shaper models on ideal components and time diagrams of the device operation are presented. The operability of the device during the passage of a pulse signal with the above-mentioned shape distortions has been confirmed. A large depth of modulation of the input signal amplitude is allowed. The formative properties of the circuit are provided. The speed of the shaper is determined by the speed of the comparator and the S/H circuit. To reduce the error of the duration forming of information pulse signals, it is necessary to choose a voltage comparator and sample-and-hold circuit devices with minimal static errors.

A comparison of ore pre-concentration efficiency between two high voltage pulse generator systems

High Voltage Pulse (HVP) enabled ore pre-concentration can potentially provide large energy savings and the ability to upgrade low-grade ores for the mining industry. Two types of pulse generator systems commonly used in HVP breakage are Marx generators and pulse transformers. This initial assessment compares the pre-concentration performance of a SelFrag Lab Unit (utilising a Marx generator) and a custom-built HVP machine (employing a pulse transformer) from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). Eight sets of experimental results using the two generator systems were collected. Two approaches were taken to analyse the data; a trendline approach using all eight sets of data, and a single-point comparison approach with matched specific energy inputs. The results show that there are significant differences in pre-concentration efficiencies with the HUST machine performing better. To elucidate the potential causes, the degree of size reduction (t10), breakage probability, and selective breakage were investigated for the two generator systems. It is likely that the efficiency of selective breakage is one of the major causes, with the HUST machine presenting better results at selectively breaking high-grade particles and consuming less energy. Additionally, the two generator systems have different energy per discharge levels; the effect of this difference should be investigated in future work.

Superior energy storage performance in Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 based ceramics via synergistic design of multi-size domain construction and multiple phase structures

Lead-free dielectric ceramics, as the crucial materials for the development of eco-friendly high pulse power devices, have faced limitations in achieving energy storage performance comparable to lead-based counterparts. A novel strategy was adopted to enhance the energy storage capability of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 based ceramics by constructing multiple phase structures and multi-size domain. An ultrahigh energy storage density of 8.0 J·cm−3 and a large efficiency of 88.9 % were achieved. The superior energy storage properties can be attributed to the synergistic effects of multiple phase structures and multi-size domain construction resulted from a significant polarization intensity difference upon Sr(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 doping. Even more surprising, the 0.6Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-0.4Sr(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 ceramic exhibited excellent aging resistance, with variation in discharge energy density (Wd) < ±7% over a temperature range from 20 to 150°C, variations in recoverable energy density (Wrec) < ±8.3 %, and efficiency (η) < ±5.6 % over a frequency range from 1 to 50 Hz and across 105 cycles. The finding in this work not only provides an effective candidate for high power pulse capacitors, but also provides ideas for the study of high energy storage performance of BNT and the related lead-free ceramics.

Development of a Semi-Autonomous Pulse and Receive Concrete Inspection System

Concrete structures are being subjected to increasing loads and used beyond their intended lifespan. When combined with operators shrinking maintenance budgets it is imperative structures are monitored for damage. Acoustic Emission (AE) and AE Tomography offer a method for damage detection and characterisation. However, they are encumbered by their equipment and setup requirements, and best used on areas where damage is already known to have occurred. An autonomous pulse catch system could be used to identify these areas. To explore the potential of such a system, seven concrete beams differentiated by their aggregate size were tested using an automated pulse and receive system. The effect of aggregate size, and pulse frequency on attenuation and wavespeed are investigated. The pulse regime consisted of narrowband pulses ranging from 30 kHz to 500 kHz. The results show that high frequency pulses experienced greater attenuation than low frequency pulses. Whilst a link appears between the size of the aggregate and the rate of attenuation of high frequency signals. A strong negative correlation between amplitude loss and pulse frequency was observed. For the specimen containing coarse aggregate, pulse velocity was constant between 100 kHz and 500 kHz, whereas specimens containing coarse aggregate experienced frequency dependant attenuation. This testing shows the significant potential for an automated pulse and receive system, which could lead to the development of an autonomous health monitoring system. In addition, the approach can be instrumental in developing large data sets, that can be used in Machine Learning processes, to develop a deeper understanding of AE signal propagation in concrete materials.

Plasma discharge experiments of a Faraday shieldless driver for high-power and long-pulse radio frequency ion source for NBI application.

Due to the high stability and less maintenance, the radio frequency (RF) driven ion source is preferred for the neutral beam injection (NBI) system. In a popular design of the RF ion source for NBI application, a Faraday shield (FS) is installed inside the RF plasma driver to protect the discharge tube. However, the FS also brings some drawbacks, such as lowering the RF power transfer and increasing the processing difficulty. A prototype of the RF plasma driver without FS and with mature manufacturing technology has been developed by using a water-cooled discharge tube. After basic testing, this prototype was further tested under the RF plasma discharge experiments in views of high power, long pulse, and long term. The reliability and its plasma characteristics were the focus of these experiments, also for the hidden issues. The results show that the prototype could generate stable and high-density plasma without any damage or sputtering mark. An RF plasma discharge of 50 kW and 20s has been achieved. The expected frequency tuning was equally effective on the prototype. Moreover, compared to the RF plasma driver with FS, the prototype could produce higher electron density in the extraction region under the same RF power. Of course, some of the shortcomings of the prototype have also been exposed in the experiments and will be improved in subsequent experiments.

Survey of tungsten gross erosion from main plasma facing components in WEST during a L-mode high fluence campaign

An initial high fluence campaign was performed in WEST, in 2023, on the newly installed actively cooled tungsten divertor composed of ITER-grade monoblocks. The campaign consisted in the repetition of a 60 s long Deuterium L-mode pulse in attached divertor conditions, cumulating over 10000s of plasma exposure. A maximum deuterium fluence of approximately 5⋅1026m−2 was reached in the outer strike point region, representative of a few high performance ITER pulses. Gross tungsten erosion inferred from visible spectroscopy shows that the most eroded plasma facing component is the inner divertor target with rates ten times larger than on the outer divertor target. The outer midplane tungsten bumpers, located a few centimeters from the plasma, show gross erosion rates two times lower than at the outer divertor. We conclude that the outer midplane bumpers have a negligible contribution to the long range tungsten migration and deposition onto the lower divertor. The cumulated gross erosion rate on the inner divertor translates in an effective gross erosion thickness of about 20μm, while it is about 2μm for the outer divertor. Strikingly, these orderings coincide with the thickness of deposits found locally on the divertor : the exposed surfaces of high field side monoblocks are covered with several tens of μm tungsten deposits, while on the lower field side, few μm thin tungsten deposits are only found on the magnetically shadowed parts of monoblocks. The strong impact of those deposits on WEST operation, namely perturbation of surface temperature measurement with infra-red thermography, and the emission of flakes causing radiative perturbation of the confined plasma, calls for anticipating similar issues in ITER. In particular, the start of research operation shall consider the definition of a divertor erosion budget in order to anticipate the formation of deleterious deposits.

Quantitative analysis of deformation characteristics and corrosion properties of high energy laser shock peened Ni-based superalloy

This study examines the influence of high-energy laser shock peening (LSP) using 7 J and 10 J pulse energies on the sub-surface deformation characteristics of Inconel 718 superalloy. High-magnitude compressive residual stresses were induced into the samples after LSP with large residual stress depths of the order of 2 mm – the experimental observations were in good agreement with finite element analyses of the LSP process. The propagation of intense shock waves led to an increased strain hardening and dislocation densities that were experimentally quantified by synchrotron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Microscopic analyses revealed highly refined grain structure only at the surface without much refinement observed in the residual depth region. Alongside high degree of strain hardening, a profuse amount of adiabatic shear bands was observed in the hardened depth, indicative of simultaneous strain localisation under such high laser pulse energy. These bands occurred along common slip planes in the Ni γ-matrix and could be potential areas of instability leading to failure. The LSP-treated samples exhibited improved corrosion resistance, with higher laser pulse energy peened samples performing better.

Divertor tungsten source monitoring by A visible spectroscopy diagnostic on EAST

EAST has been upgraded with top and bottom tungsten divertors to facilitate the high power long pulse operation. A visible spectroscopy diagnostic has been developed progressively to monitor W source as well as line emissions from other particles (e.g., D, He, Li, B, C, N, O, Ne, Ar, Mo, D2, WD) in the divertors. Two sets of lens installed in mid-plane port view tangentially the top and bottom divertors, respectively. Two types of optical fibers transfer the plasma light collected by the lens to three different detecting modules. High spectral resolution (λ/Δλ ∼ 14000) can be achieved by the detecting module consisting of spectrometer and Electron-Multiplying Charge Coupled Device (EMCCD), high temporal resolution (50 μs) is obtained by filtered photoelectric multiplier (PMT), and high spatial resolution (1 mm) is acquired by Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Transistor (CMOS) camera with collimation optics. The multichannel optical fiber array with 500 μm core diameter is used to connect the lens and the first two detecting modules. The imaging fiber bundle with 30 μm core diameter transmits the two-dimensional divertor plasma light to the third detecting module, i.e. collimation optics and CMOS camera. The diagnostic is operated automatically in normal EAST discharges to support experimental operation and divertor physics study. The paper presents a technical description of the diagnostic and typical measurements during EAST discharges.

Investigation in improving the Cs-free negative hydrogen ion production with short-pulse low power in the afterglow of pulse-power-modulated plasma sources

Abstract Pulse plasma ion sources have been shown to be capable of achieving high negative hydrogen ion densities ( n H − ) or currents. The fast cooling of the electrons and reduction in the electron density (n e) provide favorable plasma conditions to improve the H− production, with a high density ratio of negative hydrogen ions to electrons during the pulse-off period. The purpose of this research is to further improve the performance of volume-produced H− ion sources based on the pulse power modulation. In this study, a time-modulated negative hydrogen plasma sustained by 10 kHz pulse power at the typical gas pressure of 0.3 Pa was numerically investigated using a global model. The model is compared with measurements obtained in a pulsed radio frequency ion source and shows a reasonable agreement. A steplike low-high power strategy in the active glow period and a short-pulse low power in part of the afterglow period are employed to mitigate overshoot of the electron temperature (T e) in the initial stage of the pulse period and to optimize H− production in the afterglow, respectively. The model predicts that a small-magnitude, short-duration low power operation in the afterglow increases n H − and decreases n e from the onset of the low power until the beginning of the next high power pulse, due to a modest temporary increase in the T e (less than 2 eV). It facilitates dissociative electron attachments and thus H− formation. The reduction in the n e indicates that positive ions lost to the walls cannot be compensated by weak ionization. H− production with a low number of co-extracted electrons can be optimized by adjusting the magnitude and duration of the low power in the afterglow.

A Study on the Manufacture of CNT Composites Bipolar Plate for the Fuel Cell Using a Nanosecond Pulsed Laser

The channels of the graphite-based bipolar plate for hydrogen fuel cells were mainly manufactured through milling due to low forming elongation and processability. However, during the milling process, the machining precision is low due to tool wear and vibration, and there is a risk of breakage. Non-traditional laser processing can solve the problems of tool wear and vibration through non-contact processing. In this study, the interaction characteristics of the nanosecond pulsed laser and CNT composites were observed, and channels and bipolar plates were manufactured. The effect of scanning speed and pulse duration was observed for interaction characteristics. Defects were observed due to high thermal effects at low scanning speed and high pulse duration. Channels were created depending on parallel pitch distance [] and Number of scans (NOS). The channel was evaluated for depth, top width, bottom width, channel angle, material removal rate, and surface roughness, and significant changes were observed depending on . The chemical composition, surface resistance, and contact angle of the laser-processed channel were measured. The laser processed channel was oxidized, and the surface resistance and contact angle increased. Finally, the manufacturability of the CNT composites bipolar plate using laser was examined.

Assessing hydrological changes in the Ganga River with the range of variability approach

ABSTRACT The study quantitatively assesses the hydrological alterations induced by the Luv Kush Barrage on the Ganga River, India, using the Range of Variability Approach (RVA) to analyze changes in flow conditions before and after the barrage construction. The Ganga River, a crucial water source for millions, has experienced significant hydrological changes due to human interventions, notably the construction of the Luv Kush Barrage. Employing indicators of hydrological alteration (IHAs), we compared pre-impact (1972–1994) and post-impact (2001–2014) flow data to ascertain the barrage’s effects on the river’s flow regime. Our findings reveal significant alterations in the magnitude of monthly streamflow, especially during the monsoon season, with notable decreases in July, August, and September. Alterations were observed in the annual extreme flow conditions, frequency, and duration of high and low pulses, indicating a comprehensive impact on the river’s natural flow patterns. These alterations affect the river’s ecological health, affecting aquatic habitats, fishery resources, and community livelihoods dependent on the river. The study underscores the necessity for integrated water resource management practices that consider the ecological and socio-economic implications of hydrological alterations.

Efficient evolution mechanism of electrolytic gas products from laser-assisted electrolyte jet machining

Efficient evolution of electrolytic gas products is one of the mechanisms for increased material removal rate in laser-assisted electrolyte jet machining. However, the evolution mechanism of electrolytic gas products with multiple energy fields in laser-assisted electrolyte jet machining is not clear. In order to quantitatively characterize the laser-assisted facilitation of the evolution of electrolytic gas products, a gas quantification and detection device was designed and built in this paper. Compared to traditional electrolyte jet machining, laser-assisted electrolyte jet machining of 2024-T3 aluminum alloy increased the gas production by 52 % in 180 s. For the anode, the surface modification induced by laser texturing reduces the oxygen evolution potential and surface free energy and promotes gas nucleation and detachment. In addition, laser-induced conductive plasma can enhance transient currents for electrolyte jet machining and cause machining vibrations. The cathodic gas discharge phenomenon was characterized in conjunction with interelectrode gap visualization experiments and cathodic nozzle damage. Experimental results show that cathodic gas discharge depends on strong electric field and high laser pulse fluence. In summary, laser temperature rise, anode surface modification, laser-induced plasma, plasma recoil and cathode gas discharge can all contribute to the evolution of electrolytic gas products.

The Impact of Smoking on Arterial Stiffness in Young Adults: A Prospective Analysis.

Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease, often associated with aging. However, the impact of smoking on arterial stiffness is frequently underestimated. This study aims to investigate the intricate relationship between smoking and arterial stiffness to advance our understanding of and therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular health. A prospective analysis was conducted from January to July 2024, focusing on arterial stiffness parameters in a cohort of students from the Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy. Participants were categorized as smokers or non-smokers based on self-reported smoking status. The study endpoints included correlations between high pulse wave velocity, elevated peripheral and central systolic blood pressure, increased peripheral and central pulse pressure, and smoking status. These markers were assessed using an arteriograph device measuring the time difference between the initial forward pulse wave and the reflected pulse wave in the brachial artery to indirectly estimate the PWV using oscillometric pulsations. Our investigation, involving 102 young individuals aged 20 to 26 (69 females, 33 males), revealed that smokers exhibited significantly higher average values of arterial stiffness indicators compared to non-smokers. Current smokers had higher mean systolic blood pressure (130.65 vs. 123.05 mmHg), higher mean peripheral pulse pressure (53.19 vs. 45.64 mmHg), higher mean central pulse pressure (33.66 vs. 29.69 mmHg), and higher mean pulse wave velocity (5.27 vs. 5.03 m/s). The utilization of arterial stiffness markers as predictive tools offers opportunities for personalized treatment strategies, potentially enhancing cardiovascular health outcomes.

Process simulation and optimization of process parameters of single-pulse femtosecond laser processing Invar 36 alloy

Invar 36 alloy has an extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion and is suitable for preparing a fine metal mask (FMM) for the evaporation of silicon-based organic light emitting display microdisplays. The higher the resolution and the greater the number of pixels, the finer and more delicate the holes required. Femtosecond laser processing technology is an effective technical means for processing Invar 36 alloy FMM due to its characteristics of extremely short pulse width, extremely high pulse energy density, smaller heat-affected zone, and more regular machining edges. The femtosecond laser processing parameters directly affect temperature distribution and then affect the manufacturing quality and efficiency of Invar 36 alloy FMM. At present, femtosecond laser processing of Invar 36 alloy FMM is still in the exploration stage, and the processing mechanism and technology are not clear. In this paper, a simulation model of single-pulse femtosecond laser processing Invar 36 alloy is established based on the two-temperature equation. By comparing the ablation morphology of the simulation output with the experimental measurement results, the validity of the simulation model is verified and the processing mechanism is preliminarily explored. Based on the simulation model, the effects of femtosecond laser energy density, pulse duration, and spot diameter on the electron temperature field, lattice temperature field, and ablation morphology of the craters are explored. The process window of laser processing parameters is determined. A full-factor test is conducted. Take the minimum length of the heat-affected zone, the maximum depth of the ablation crater, and the minimum diameter of the ablation crater as three optimization objectives and obtain Pareto optimal solutions based on genetic algorithm. The optimization of single-pulse femtosecond laser drilling Invar 36 alloy is realized.
