Flexure-Tuned Membrane-at-the-Edge Optomechanical System

open access: yes, 2019
We introduce a passively-aligned, flexure-tuned cavity optomechanical system in which a membrane is positioned microns from one end mirror of a Fabry-Perot optical cavity. By displacing the membrane through gentle flexure of its silicon supporting frame (

Elliptical-Arc-Fillet Flexure Hinges: Toward a Generalized Model for Commonly Used Flexure Hinges

open access: yes, 2011
Flexure hinges have been used to produce frictionless and backlashless transmissions in a variety of precision mechanisms. Although there are many types of flexure hinges available, designers often chose a single type of flexure hinge (e.g., circular ...

Flexural modeling of the Manila Trench based on subduction dip: comparison of north-south subduction differences

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The Manila Trench, representing relatively young (16–36 Ma) subducting slabs, has been flexurally modeled to assess its subduction morphology. This modeling enables predictions of subduction-related earthquake locations and provides critical insights ...

On the incorporation of waste ceramic powder into concrete

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering
This study investigates the potential use of waste ceramic powder as a filler in concrete. Different percentages of waste ceramic powder were added to the concrete, and the compressive strength and water absorption properties were assessed.

A Numerical Model for Tracing Structural Response of Ultra-High Performance Concrete Beams

open access: yesModelling, 2021
This paper presents a finite element-based numerical model for tracing the behavior of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) beams. The model developed in ABAQUS can account for stress–strain response of UHPC and reinforcing bar in both tension and ...

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Referral Patterns and Diagnostic Timeliness in Pediatric Cancer: A Hospital‐Based Study in Indonesia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Timely diagnosis and treatment are critical for improving survival among children with cancer. In low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), delays are common and may be influenced by fragmented referral pathways and diagnostic limitations.

Flexure Pivot Oscillator With Intrinsically Tuned Isochronism [PDF]

open access: yes
The most important property for accurate mechanical time bases is isochronism: the independence of period from oscillation amplitude. This paper develops a new concept in isochronism adjustment for flexure-based watch oscillators.
