Air‐Pressure–Actuated Vibroacoustic Metamaterial With Tunable Bandgap: Design, Modeling, and Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents the design, modeling, and characterization of air‐pressure–actuated programmable vibroacoustic metamaterials (PVAMM). The study focuses on leveraging air pressure to dynamically tune resonance frequencies for effective noise attenuation.

Deriving iceberg ablation rates using an on-iceberg autonomous phase-sensitive radar (ApRES)

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
The increase in iceberg discharge into the polar oceans highlights the importance of understanding how quickly icebergs are deteriorating and where the resulting freshwater injection is occurring.

Comparing numerical ice-sheet model output with radio-echo sounding measurements in the Weddell Sea sector of West Antarctica

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
Numerical ice-sheet models are commonly matched to surface ice velocities from InSAR measurements by modifying basal drag, allowing the flow and form of the ice sheet to be simulated. Geophysical measurements of the bed are rarely used to examine if this

Radio-Echo Sounding Over Polar Ice Masses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics, 2007
Abstract Radio-echo sounding (RES) constitutes the principal means by which glaciologists investigate the subsurface properties of the polar ice sheets and ice caps. Developed in the 1960s as a method for locating and mapping the subglacial interface beneath extensive regions of ice-covered terrain, thereby to constrain ice volume and

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).

ImpDAR: an open-source impulse radar processor

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
Despite widespread use of radio-echo sounding (RES) in glaciology and broad distribution of processed radar products, the glaciological community has no standard software for processing impulse RES data.

Radio echo-sounding of the Antarctic ice sheet.

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1989
氷床流動の観測に基づいて, 南極氷床の変動 (例えば, 氷床域の拡大, 縮小) を明らかにすることを目的として, 東南極の東経35度から東経45度に至るみずほ高原地域において, 過去20年にわたって観測が続けられてきた.その結果, 白瀬氷河流域では.年間約70cmもの氷厚の減少が観測された.この氷厚減少から, 白瀬氷河流域の氷床が不安定状態にあることが示唆され, 原因として, 氷床底面での“底面すぺり”が指摘された。そこで, 氷床底面の物理的状態を調べるために電波氷厚計を用いての電波探査が氷床上の流動測定・雪氷観測ルートに沿って, 1982年以降実施された.これまでの電波観測では, 送信時刻と基盤からの反射時刻の時間間隔から氷厚のみを求めていたが, この研究では, 氷床氷の厚さを測定するだけでなく,

Helicopter-borne radio-echo sounding of Svartisen, Norway [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 1993
A helicopter-mounted low frequency ice-radar has been developed for the depth sounding of temperate glaciers. The radar consists of standard transmitter and digital receiver equipment. The long antennae are supported on a special aluminium and fibreglass construction which hangs 20 m below the helicopter. The radar has been used on Engabreen, an outlet

Elastic–Plastic Modeling and Experimental Characterization of Granular Jamming Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Granular jamming enables rapid switching between soft and rigid mechanical states. Here, a reduced‐order elastic‐perfectly‐plastic beam framework captures pressure‐dependent loading, unloading, residual deformation, and hysteresis in jammed beams, while matching three‐point bending experiments across materials and geometries. The framework links design
