SCALING OF OPERATIONAL MODE SHAPES USING SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS [PDF]
مجله مدل سازی در مهندسی, 2009 Recently, identification of dynamic properties of structures such as bridges, towers and building, which are not easy to excite, is possible by measuring only the output responses. Due to measuring only the responses when the structure is excited only by

Thermometry based on Whispering Gallery Mode resonators [PDF]
, 2012 Whispering gallery (WG) mode resonators were studied since 1980s for precision clock oscillators and for cavity quantum electrodynamics studies. They are a kind of stable, high Q, microwave resonators where a symmetric dielectric medium, such as a ...

Design of a Novel Type Micro-Stirrer Excited by Longitudinal Elastic Wave for Thrombus Dissolution
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2011 This paper presents the method to design a novel micro stirrer for high effective dissolution of cerebral thrombus or blood clot. The micro stirrer is a beam with supported one side and the other side is attached to an asymmetrical stirrer.

T-shaped mode coupler for two-mode mode division multiplexing
IEICE Electronics Express, 2011 We propose a novel type of mode coupler consisting of two identical rectangular few-mode waveguides with different orientations. Numerical simulation indicates that mode extinction ratio exceeding 20dB can be achieved by well-aligned waveguides.
