It was found that bio-inspired joints without trochlea sulcus showed to be more specialized in the bearing of turnover moments. Bio-inspired joints with trochlea sulcus are more suitable for supporting combined loads (axial and radial load and turnover moments). Learning about the natural rules of mechanical design can provide new insights to improve the design of current mechanical joints.Virtual imaging trials (VITs), defined as the process of conducting clinical imaging trials using computer simulations, offer a time- and cost-effective alternative to traditional imaging trials for CT. The clinical potential of VITs hinges on the realism of simulations modeling the image acquisition process, where the accurate scanner-specific simulation of scatter in a time-feasible manner poses a particular challenge. To meet this need, this study proposes, develops, and validates a rapid scatter estimation framework, based on GPU-accelerated Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and denoising methods, for estimating scatter in single source, dual-source, and photon-counting CT. A CT simulator was developed to incorporate parametric models for an anti-scatter grid and a curved energy integrating detector with an energy-dependent response. The scatter estimates from the simulator were validated using physical measurements acquired on a clinical CT system using the standard single-blocker method. The MC simulator wase two methods, respectively. The execution time of ∼30 s for simulating scatter in a single projection with a desirable level of statistical noise indicates a major improvement in performance, making our tool an eligible candidate for conducting extensive VITs spanning multiple patients and scan protocols.Thermal interface material (TIM) is pivotal for the heat dissipation between layers of high-densi
