Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Idler-resonant femtosecond optical parametric oscillator with high mid-infra-red beam quality

open access: yes
We report an idler-resonant femtosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with average output power of 520 mW, repetition-rate of 80 MHz, pulse duration of 90 fs and nearly diffraction-limited beam quality at ~2.4 ...

Directionality Scaling of Scalar and Vector Ground Motion Intensity Measures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The azimuthal directionality of earthquake ground‐motion intensity measures (IMs) is conventionally described by the ratios between the orientation‐independent maximum (RotD100) and median (RotD50) values over the horizontal plane. This study presents a refined characterization of the directionality of 31 IMs, including spectral accelerations (

Towards a compact THz local oscillator based on a quantum cascade laser [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Heterodyne spectroscopy of molecular rotational lines and atomic fine-structure lines is a powerful tool in astronomy and planetary research. One example is the OI fine-structure line at 4.7 THz.

An Intensity Measure‐Based Methodology for Ground Motion Orientation in Seismic Structural Assessment

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In current dynamic time history assessment protocols, ground motion recordings are mostly oriented along fixed sensor directions. Consequently, the orientation of the principal resultant of rupture energy, which may control the maximum structural demand, remains undefined, precluding consistent correlation with physically detrimental ...

A Three‐Parameter Continuum Timoshenko Beam Framework for Evaluating Higher‐Mode Effects in High‐Rise Buildings With Rotational and Translational Base Flexibility

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Higher‐mode effects can significantly amplify seismic demands in high‐rise buildings, causing unintended damage over the building height. Engineered mechanisms are introduced at the base of these structures to mitigate higher‐mode effects. Existing continuum formulations for base‐flexible buildings commonly idealize the superstructure as a ...

Fluorene‐based blue emitters: On the path to electrically pumped organic lasers

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Electrically pumped efficient operation remains unrealized, a major challenge in optoelectronics. Fluorene‐based blue‐emitting semiconductors are promising gain media, thanks to their structural tunability and favorable emission properties. This review summarizes recent advances, highlights their reliability and versatility in lasing, and outlines key ...
