Sensitivity enhancement of a lossy mode resonance based tapered fiber optic sensor with an optimum taper profile

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2018
In this study, we have presented the design considerations of lossy mode resonance (LMR) based tapered fiber optic sensors for sensitivity enhancement. The study includes the effect of the taper ratio and the taper profile, i.e.

TAPER

Proceedings of the 10th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems, 2016
We address the challenge of personalized recommendation of high quality content producers in social media. While some candidates are easily identifiable (say, by being "favorited" many times), there is a long-tail of potential candidates for whom we have little evidence.

TaPEr

Proceedings of the 12th ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers, 2015
A new challenge in multicore design is the management of dark silicon. Among the on-chip components, the cores and caches consume most of the power. We observe that parallel programs exhibit different scalability characteristics with respect to the number of cores and the size of caches.

Tapered Orbital Retractors

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1995
An unobstructed view of the operative field is essential in orbital surgery. However, surgical exposure is often impaired by the orbital fat that billows forth when the periorbita has been opened. Broad-tipped malleable retractors, in use at least as early as Berke's 1 modification of the Kronlein 2 procedure, continue to be standard instrumentation ...

Self-tapered beams

Optics Letters, 1992
By introducing material gain within a bulk nonlinear medium, it is possible to taper adiabatically a self-guided beam and to preserve its planar wave front. The amount of tapering can be controlled externally by varying the gain through the intensity of a pump beam.

WHY A TAPER?

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2002
The purpose of this study was to substantiate the continued use of a cementless plasma-sprayed, proximal-to-distal dual-tapered-geometry femoral-component design on the basis of long-term clinical and radiographic evidence. This justification is particularly pertinent in cementless total hip arthroplasty, in which bone-stock preservation and prosthetic-

Haemodynamics Study of Tapered Stents Intervention to Tapered Arteries

Cardiovascular Engineering and Technology, 2019
In-stent restenosis (ISR) is related to local haemodynamics in the arteries after stent intervention. However, the haemodynamics of stents implanted into tapered vessels is rarely studied and remains unclear. This study aimed to study the haemodynamic performance of a stent in a tapered artery to reveal the haemodynamic differences between tapered and ...

A method to judge taper-taper intersection

Proceedings of 2011 International Conference on Electronic & Mechanical Engineering and Information Technology, 2011
To judge taper-taper intersection and to calculate the position they intersect is common in many engineering applications. The traditional method to solve the inequalities of the two tapers is very complex. This article brings forward a new method which turns the taper-taper intersection problem into the sphere-sphere intersection one that makes it ...

Tapered-thickness bimetal

Electrical Engineering, 1945
The most important properties of thermostatic bimetal strips of uniformly tapered width or thickness or both have been analyzed mathematically, and the findings are described in this paper. A tapered-thickness form is found to be the best practical one from the standpoint of economy of material.

Distinguishing Tapered and Non-Tapered Gutenberg–Richter Distributions

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America
ABSTRACT The magnitude–frequency distribution (MFD), which quantifies the relative frequency of large versus small earthquakes, is commonly used in seismic hazard assessment studies and is thought to characterize earthquake dynamics.
