Kinematics in the Information Age
Mathematics, 2018 Modern kinematics derives directly from developments in the 1700s, and in their current instantiation, have been adopted as standard realizations…or templates that seem unquestionable.

Thermodynamics for Trajectories of a Mass Point [PDF]
, 2014 On the basis of information theory, a new formalism of classical non-relativistic mechanics of a mass point is proposed. The particle trajectories of a general dynamical system defined on an (1+n)-dimensional smooth manifold are treated geometrically as ...

Measuring the lung function in the mouse: the challenge of size
Respiratory Research, 2003 Measurement of the effects of drugs, mediators and infectious agents on various models of lung disease, as well as assessment of lung function in the intact mouse has the potential for significantly advancing our knowledge of lung disease.

Simultaneous radiation pressure induced heating and cooling of an opto-mechanical resonator [PDF]
, 2012 Cavity opto-mechanics enabled radiation-pressure coupling between optical and mechanical modes of a micro-mechanical resonator gives rise to dynamical backaction, enabling amplification and cooling of mechanical motion. Due to a combination of large mechanical oscillations and necessary saturation of amplification, the noise floor of the opto ...

Differential Spiral Joint Mechanism for Coupled Variable Stiffness Actuation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In this study, we present the Differential Spiral Joint (DSJ) mechanism for variable stiffness actuation in tendon-driven robots. The DSJ mechanism semi-decouples the modulation of position and mechanical stiffness, allowing independent trajectory tracking in different parameter space. Past studies show that increasing the mechanical stiffness achieves

Gels, 2021 Aqueous microgels are distinct entities of soft matter with mechanical signatures that can be different from their macroscopic counterparts due to confinement effects in the preparation, inherently made to consist of more than one domain (Janus particles)
