A flexible bio-inspired hierarchical model for analyzing musical timbre
(2016)
A flexible and multipurpose bio-inspired hierarchical model for analyzing musical timbre is presented in this paper. Inspired by findings in the fields of neuroscience, computational neuroscience, and psychoacoustics, not ...
Silicon nitride nanotemplate fabrication using inductively coupled plasma etching process
(2011)
Abstract : In this work, we have investigated the fabrication of ordered silicon nitride nanohole arrays as part of an overall process aimed at producing organized silicon nanocrystals. The authors have demonstrated that ...
Technology platform for the fabrication of titanium nanostructures
(2011)
Abstract : This paper presents two approaches for the fabrication of top-down titanium nanostructures. The first approach involves electron beam lithography followed by a tailored titanium plasma etching. The two main ...
A fabrication process for emerging nanoelectronic devices based on oxide tunnel junctions
(2017)
Abstract : We present a versatile nanodamascene process for the realization of low-power nanoelectronic devices with different oxide junctions. With this process we have fabricated metal/insulator/metal junctions, metallic ...
Modal analysis of the laminar boundary layer instability and tonal noise of an airfoil at Reynolds number 150,000
(2018)
A direct numerical simulation of the flow field around a controlled-diffusion airfoil within an anechoic wind-tunnel at 5 degree incidence and a high Reynolds number of 150,000 is performed for the first time using a Lattice ...
Implementation of a simplified method in design of hysteretic dampers for isolated highway bridges
(2017)
Abstract: Using seismic isolation systems for highway bridges modifies the structure’s principal vibration modes, effectively reducing the seismic base shear conveyed from the superstructure to the substructure. However, ...
Numerical analysis of ACSR conductor-clamp systems undergoing wind-induced cyclic loads
(2018)
Abstract—Submitted to wind induced vibrations, overhead
conductors are vulnerable to fatigue damage, especially at
restraining fixtures such as the suspension clamp. This paper
proposes an efficient finite element ...
Modeling multilayered wire strands, a strategy based on 3D finite element beam-to-beam contacts - Part I: Model formulation and validation
(2017)
Abstract: This paper proposes a FE modeling strategy for multilayered strands subjected to multiaxial loads. The approach takes advantage of beam elements and incorporates 3D inter-wire contacts. While reducing mesh sizes, ...
Modulation of functional connectivity following visual adaptation: homeostasis in V1
(2015)
Abstract: Sensory neurons exhibit remarkable adaptability in acquiring new optimal selectivity to unfamiliar features when a new stimulus becomes prevalent in the environment. In conventionally prepared adult anesthetized ...
Full-scale measurement of the response of a CPV tracker structure prototype under wind load
(2017)
The response of concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) structures under wind loading has to be carefully predicted to optimize the design of these structures. Designers normally rely on wind tunnel tests and equivalent static ...
