Fundamental study on a thin-film ae sensor for measurement of behavior of a multi-pad contact slider [PDF]
To study the fundamental dynamic characteristics of a multi-pad slider for contact recording, we developed a thin-film piezoelectric acoustic emission array sensor on an Si-suspension with an array pattern similar to that of contact pads.

Reproducibility of electrical caries measurements: A technical problem? [PDF]
The currently available instrument for electrical detection of occlusal caries lesions {[}Electronic Caries Monitor (ECM)] uses a site-specific measurement with co-axial air drying. The reproducibility of this method has been reported to be fair to good.

An exact Riemann solver based solution for regular shock refraction [PDF]
We study the classical problem of planar shock refraction at an oblique density discontinuity, separating two gases at rest. When the shock impinges on the density discontinuity, it refracts and in the hydrodynamical case 3 signals arise.

A survey of UK medical schools' arrangements for early patient contact [PDF]
Background: Many U.K. medical schools have patient contact in the first two years of the undergraduate course. Aim: To compare the purposes and organization of early patient contact in UK medical schools and to relate these arrangements to the schools ...

Dynamical model for the formation of patterned deposits at receding contact lines [PDF]
We describe the formation of deposition patterns that are observed in many different experiments where a three-phase contact line of a volatile nanoparticle suspension or polymer solution recedes.

Multi-contact Walking Pattern Generation based on Model Preview Control of 3D COM Accelerations [PDF]
We present a multi-contact walking pattern generator based on preview-control of the 3D acceleration of the center of mass (COM). A key point in the design of our algorithm is the calculation of contact-stability constraints.

Dynamic Labyrinthine Pattern in an Active Liquid Film
We report the generation of a dynamic labyrinthine pattern in an active alcohol film. A dynamic labyrinthine pattern is formed along the contact line of air/pentanol/aqueous three phases.

The use of high aspect ratio photoresist (SU-8) for super-hydrophobic pattern prototyping [PDF]
In this work we present a reliable technique for the production of large areas of high aspect-ratio patterns and describe their use as model super-hydrophobic systems.
