Lock-in & Break-out from Technological Trajectories: Modeling and policy implications [PDF]
Arthur [1,2] provided a model to explain the circumstances that lead to technological lock-in into a specific trajectory. We contribute substantially to this area of research by investigating the circumstances under which technological development may ...

Lock-in of the vortex-induced vibrations of a long tensioned beam in shear flow [PDF]
The occurrence of lock-in, defined as the local synchronization between the vortex shedding frequency and the cross-flow structural vibration frequency, is investigated in the case of a tensioned beam of length to diameter ratio 200, free to move in both

Hold-in, pull-in, and lock-in ranges of PLL circuits: rigorous mathematical definitions and limitations of classical theory [PDF]
The terms hold-in, pull-in (capture), and lock-in ranges are widely used by engineers for the concepts of frequency deviation ranges within which PLL-based circuits can achieve lock under various additional conditions. Usually only non-strict definitions

A simple microcontroller based digital lock-in amplifier for the detection of low level optical signals [PDF]
Traditionally digital lock-in amplifiers sample the input signal at a rate much higher than the lock-in reference frequency and perform the lock-in algorithm with high-speed processors.

Noise increase phenomenon of the air flow through a perforated metal plate
The aerodynamic noise generated from a perforated metal plate varied by air-flow direction. In the case of expansion type perforated metal plate, it generates very large level aerodynamic noise with a prominent peak in the frequency characteristic.

Locking Timestamps versus Locking Objects [PDF]
We present multiversion timestamp locking (MVTL), a new genre of multiversion concurrency control algorithms for serializable transactions. The key idea behind MVTL is simple: lock individual timestamps instead of locking objects. After presenting a generic MVTL algorithm, we demonstrate MVTL's expressiveness: we give several simple MVTL algorithms ...

Detection of composite damage by IR NDT using ultrasonic and optic excitation
The submitted paper presents experience with detection of damaged composites by means of an ultrasonic excitation system in comparison with an optic system of excitation. In case of the ultrasonic excitation system is a high-frequency signal modulated by

Product Durability in Markets with Consumer Lock-in [PDF]
This paper examines a two-period duopoly where consumers are locked-in by switching costs that they face in the second period. The paper's main focus is on the question of how the consumer lock-in affects the firms' choice of product durability.
