Acoustic guiding and subwavelength imaging with sharp bending by sonic crystal

open access: yes, 2011
A sharp bending scheme for the self-collimation of acoustic waves is proposed by simply truncating the sonic crystals. An all-angle and wide-band 90{\deg}-bending wave guide is demonstrated with nearly perfect transmissions for Gaussian beams at a wide ...

Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies.

Knowledge discovery for friction stir welding via data driven approaches: Part 1 – correlation analyses of internal process variables and weld quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
For a comprehensive understanding towards Friction Stir Welding (FSW) which would lead to a unified approach that embodies materials other than aluminium, such as titanium and steel, it is crucial to identify the intricate correlations between the ...

Design and Experimental Validation of a 3D-Printed Embedded-Sensing Continuum Robot for Neurosurgery

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
A minimally-invasive manipulator characterized by hyper-redundant kinematics and embedded sensing modules is presented in this work. The bending angles (tilt and pan) of the robot tip are controlled through tendon-driven actuation; the transmission of ...

Mechanochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Nanostructured ErB4 and NdB4 Rare‐Earth Tetraborides

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 6, March 2025.
ErB4 and NdB4 nanostructured powders are produced by mechanochemical synthesis. 5 h mechanical alloying and 4 M HCl acid leaching are used in the production. ErB4 and NdB4 powders exhibit maximum magnetization of 0.4726 emu g−1 accompanied with an antiferromagnetic‐to‐paramagnetic phase transition at about TN = 18 K and 0.132 emu g−1 with a maximum at ...

A Torsional potential for graphene derived from fitting to DFT results

open access: yes, 2017
We present a simple torsional potential for graphene to accurately describe its out-of-plane deformations. The parameters of the potential are derived through appropriate fitting with suitable DFT calculations regarding the deformation energy of graphene

Modal–Physical Hybrid System Identification of High-rise Building via Subspace and Inverse-Mode Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2017
A system identification (SI) problem of high-rise buildings is investigated under restricted data environments. The shear and bending stiffnesses of a shear-bending model (SB model) representing the high-rise buildings are identified via the smart ...

Ultra-compact multimode waveguide bends with arbitrary bending angles

open access: yesOptics Express
Achieving compact waveguide routing with arbitrary configurations is essential for on-chip mode-division multiplexing (MDM) systems to enable higher integration density and more flexible layouts. However, current multimode waveguide bends (MWBs) are limited to 90°, restricting design flexibility.

Fluctuating semiflexible polymer ribbon constrained to a ring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Twist stiffness and an asymmetric bending stiffness of a polymer or a polymer bundle is captured by the elastic ribbon model. We investigate the effects a ring geometry induces to a thermally fluctuating ribbon, finding bend-bend coupling in addition to ...
