A theoretical analysis of a piezoelectric ultrasound device with an active matching layer [PDF]
, 2007 This paper investigates the use of magnetically active materials in the matching layer of a piezoelectric transducer. This then allows the performance of the device to be dynamically altered by applying an external field.

Analysis of Compatible Discrete Operator Schemes for the Stokes Equations on Polyhedral Meshes [PDF]
, 2014 Compatible Discrete Operator schemes preserve basic properties of the continuous model at the discrete level. They combine discrete differential operators that discretize exactly topological laws and discrete Hodge operators that approximate constitutive

Dynamics of an inchworm nano-walker [PDF]
, 2006 An inchworm processive mechanism is proposed to explain the motion of dimeric molecular motors such as kinesin. We present here preliminary results for this mechanism focusing on observables like mean velocity, coupling ratio and efficiency versus ATP ...
