“…The Virtual Power Electronics Laboratory can assist students in their learning of circuitous philosophy and operation practice of electrical experiment on the computer. The virtual training system of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) surgery could help students practise surgery operation by creating a three‐dimensional model based on the patient's X‐ray diagnosis chart. In addition, other virtual systems include Virtual Driving Learning System , Virtual Product Development System , and Virtual Hydraulic Experiments System .…”

This paper introduces an interactive Unity3D-based three-dimensional virtual practice platform for chemical-engineering, which is intended to assist the chemical engineering students in their production practice. The real chemical plant sections are recreated in the virtual environment of the system. The system provides users with two kinds of walkthrough modes, demonstration of the structure and operation principle of some main equipment as well as the operating functions of setting up some major pumps and valves so as to strengthen the students' understanding of the chemical process and train their operative ability. In addition, its virtual treatment of emergency can help to enhance the safety production awareness of the students and cultivate their ability to respond to unexpected emergency. The students' feedback to our survey indicates that, despite some suggestions for further improvement, the virtual platform has more advantages and characteristics compared with traditional practice mode, and is effective in helping them understand the chemical process and equipment. What is more, some improvement has been made to perfect the system with students' suggestions fully taken into consideration.

With the development of virtual reality technology, simulation surgery has become a low‐risk surgical training method and high‐precision positioning of surgical instruments is required in virtual simulation surgery. In this paper we design and validate a novel electromagnetic positioning method based on a uniform gradient magnetic field. We employ Maxwell coils to generate the uniform gradient magnetic field and propose two positioning algorithms based on magnetic field, namely the linear equation positioning algorithm and the magnetic field fingerprint positioning algorithm. After validating the feasibility of proposed positioning system through simulation, we construct a prototype system and conduct practical experiments. The experimental results demonstrate that the positioning system exhibits excellent accuracy and speed in both simulation and real‐world applications. The positioning accuracy remains consistent and high, showing no significant variation with changes in the positions of surgical instruments.

The traditional practice teaching mode of Weft‐knitting Engineering leads to unsatisfactory teaching outcomes due to the lack of hardware in laboratory and security issue in knitting mill. This paper presents a 3D virtual Weft‐knitting Engineering learning system based on Unreal Engine 4. The technological design of weft‐knitted fabrics including automatic design of jacquard pattern and the transformation of jacquard pattern, knitting notation, needle set‐out, and cams arrangement is realized through the establishment of mathematical model and algorithm in Unreal Engine 4. Corresponding cam configuration operation from the first person perspective is implemented in virtual practice operation part. The system provides learners a holistic cognition of weft‐knitting practice from machine structure, design of the weft‐knitted fabrics, virtual practice operation on the machine to 3D interactive Virtual Weft‐knitted fabrics. The experiment result shows that the virtual learning system developed in this study can improve the teaching effect of Weft‐knitting Engineering especially in operational skills, and the combination of traditional plus virtual learning system method is the better way to optimize the teaching effect. The learners’ feedback indicates that 3D virtual Weft‐knitting Engineering learning system is more convenient and immersive in which they feel like using real machine in real knitting mill. With the software combination of Unreal Engine 4 and Houdini, the bottom frame of the program offers great expansibility for more complex machine model and operation to the system in future. The design framework and discussions in this paper may be useful for developing virtual learning system in other areas.
