This thesis gives an overview of my work over the last four years on the development of analogue electronic building blocks for the auditory pathway, and their application to some models of processing in the auditory brainstem. The anatomy and physiology o ...
A short overview is given on deposition and integration of PZT thin films on silicon for MEMS applications. The application principles are explained and the piezoelectric coefficients are compared with the ones of AlN and ZnO. The materials figure of merit ...
The non-linear elastic response of arteries implies that their mechanical properties depend strongly on blood pressure. Thus, dynamic measurements of both the diameter and pressure curves over the whole cardiac cycle are necessary to characterise properly ...
The utility of lentivirus as a gene delivery vector in the cochlea was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Lentivirus transduction was assessed through expression analysis of a reporter gene, green fluorescent protein (GFP), integrated within the viral genome. ...
Thickness mode resonances in commercial piezoelectric ceramics have been characterised as a function of frequency by two methods. The first is based on a fit on the electrical impedance for the fundamental and the overtones. This method has been applied to ...
P-V-T measurements on magnesite MgCO3 have been carried out at high pressure and high temperature up to 8.6 GPa and 1255 K, using a DIA-type, cubic-anvil apparatus (SAM-85) in conjunction with in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction. Precise volumes a ...
The Cavitation Erosion Power based on the assumption that severe erosion is often due to the repeated collapse of the traveling vortex generated by a leading edge cavity has been formerly introduced. We have shown that cavitation erosion intensity may be s ...
Tensile specimens of pure Mo and Mo-5 Re, Mo-41 Re and TZM alloys have been irradiated with 600 MeV protons in the PIREX facility at 300 and 660 K to 0.5 dpa. Results of the postirradiation tensile testing show a strong radiation hardening and a severe los ...
In hexane, i.e. under heterogeneous conditions, 1,(w - 1)-dienes readily undergo double deprotonation to give bis(allylmetal) intermediates. In THF at -75 or -50 Deg, however, only monometalation occurs with dienes having
