Digital contact tracing [PDF]

open access: yesACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review, 2020
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, technology enthusiasts have pushed for digital contact tracing as a critical tool for breaking the COVID-19 transmission chains. Motivated by this push, many countries and companies have created apps that enable digital contact tracing with the goal to identify the chain of transmission from an infected ...

Geometry and design of spur gear drive associated with low sliding ratio

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
The relative sliding between tooth surfaces is the main cause of tooth wear and power loss, which directly affects the transmission efficiency and durability of gear.

Contact resistivity and current flow path at metal/graphene contact [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2010
The contact properties between metal and graphene were examined. The electrical measurement on a multiprobe device with different contact areas revealed that the current flow preferentially entered graphene at the edge of the contact metal. The analysis using the cross-bridge Kelvin (CBK) structure suggested that a transition from the edge conduction ...

Contact structures, deformations and taut foliations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Using deformations of foliations to contact structures as well as rigidity properties of Anosov foliations we provide infinite families of examples which show that the space of taut foliations in a given homotopy class of plane fields is in general not ...

High load capacity spur gears with conchoidal path of contact

open access: yesMechanics & Industry, 2021
The present study is devoted to investigation of spur gears with a conchoidal path of contact and a convex-convex contact between teeth. The load capacity and energy efficiency were evaluated using both theoretical and experimental approaches.

Investigation of Load Capacity of High-Contact-Ratio Internal Spur Gear Drive with Arc Path of Contact

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Tooth root bending stress and surface contact stress are two major determinants of the load carrying capacity of gear drives. Generally, a high contact ratio has the potential to enhance the gear strength.

Vision-Guided MPC for Robotic Path Following Using Learned Memory-Augmented Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021
The control of the interaction between the robot and environment, following a predefined geometric surface path with high accuracy, is a fundamental problem for contact-rich tasks such as machining, polishing, or grinding. Flexible path-following control

Friedel oscillations in a Luttinger liquid with long-range interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We introduce a path-integral approach that allows to compute charge density oscillations in a Luttinger liquid with impurities. We obtain an explicit expression for the envelope of Friedel oscillations in the presence of arbitrary electron-electron ...
