On the mechanical behavior of LIGA nickel

2009 4th IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems, 2009
We get the mechanical behavior of pure nickel material produced by the LIGA method in Institute of High Energy Physics Chinese Academy of Sciences through tensile tests. The average Young's modulus is 215 GPa, which is almost exactly the same as measured on the device, NanoIndentation.

MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MICROCAPSULES

Annual Review of Materials Research, 2006
▪ Abstract  In recent years microcapsule systems have found applications in many areas of science and technology. Their use to a large extent depends on how mechanical properties are understood and controlled. Here we review different experimental techniques recently developed to probe microcapsule mechanics and to characterize other physical ...

Agent behaviors and coordinative mechanism

Kybernetes, 2012
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to improve the behaviors coordination mechanism, to maintain the system's long time‐scale and stable competitive capability, when the agents in the system focus on cooperating with each other.Design/methodology/approachEffort level for every agent, whose dynamics can be described as a stochastic partial differential ...

Mechanical Behavior

2012
Abstract This chapter discusses the stress-strain response of materials, how it is measured, and how it used to set performance expectations. It begins by describing the common tensile test and how it sheds light on the elastic design of structures as well as plasticity and fracture behaviors.

Central Cholinergic Mechanism and Behavior

1971
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses central cholinergic mechanism functions and behaviors. It presents data that establishes acetylcholine (ACh) as a central neurotransmitter and its role in the elicitation and maintenance of behavior. The chapter also highlights the role of the central adrenergic and serotonergic mechanisms to demonstrate and ...

Benzodiazepines: behavioral and neurochemical mechanisms

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1977
The therapeutic effects of benzodiazepines in psychoneurosis may depend in part on their ability to release or disinhibit a patient's anxiety-suppressed gratification-seeking behavior. Benzodiazepines may disinhibit behavior by reducing the activity of serotonin (and possibly acetylcholine) neurons in the brain's "punishment" system.

Behavioral Mechanism Design

Journal of Public Economic Theory, 2012
AbstractThis paper studies the mechanism design problem for the class of Bayesian environments where agents do care for the well‐being of others. For these environments, we fully characterize interim efficient (IE) mechanisms and examine their properties.

Mechanical Behavior

2013
Abstract The mechanical behavior of a material, in the most practical sense, is how it deforms or breaks under load; in other words, how it responds when stressed. This chapter provides a brief review of the properties associated with mechanical behavior, including stress, strain, elasticity, plastic deformation, ductility, hardness ...

Neural mechanisms for hedonistic behavior

The Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1949
Some neural mechanisms are described which interpret neurobiophysically the determination of the behavior of an individual by the maximizing of his satisfaction, or pleasure.
