Bending Compensating Device, System and Method for Optical Waveguides

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado, Sebastien Walpen

A bending compensation device for a waveguide, including a direction changing device configured to maintain a constant bending angle to the waveguide, a distal end of the waveguide having a first orientation, and the proximal end of the waveguide having a ...

Harnessing the damping properties of materials for high-speed atomic force microscopy

Jürgen Brugger, Georg Fantner, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Blake William Erickson, Jonathan David Adams, Jonas Grossenbacher

The success of high-speed atomic force microscopy in imaging molecular motors1, enzymes2 and microbes3 in liquid environments suggests that the technique could be of significant value in a variety of areas of nanotechnology. However, the majority of atomic ...

Franck–Condon-like Progressions in Infrared Spectra of Biological Molecules

Thomas Rizzo, Michael Zachary Kamrath, Aleksandra Zabuga

Infrared spectra in the NH stretch region are often used for structure determination of gas-phase biological molecules. Vibrational couplings complicate the structure determination process by giving rise to additional vibrational bands along with the expec ...

Propulsion and Instability of a Flexible Helical Rod Rotating in a Viscous Fluid

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

We combine experiments with simulations to investigate the fluid-structure interaction of a flexible helical rod rotating in a viscous fluid, under low Reynolds number conditions. Our analysis takes into account the coupling between the geometrically nonli ...

Vertical excitation of axisymmetric liquid bridges

Massimo Mastrangeli, Pierre Lambert

This study presents an analytical model of the dynamics of an axisymmetric liquid bridge confined between two circular pads and subjected to small vertical periodic perturbations. Such system finds important applications in microassembly and microjoint des ...

Two-dimensional cantilever array with varying spring constants and tip radii for life-science applications

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama, Sebastian Gautsch, Peter Vettiger, Frédéric Loizeau, André Meister

A fabrication process for realising two-dimensional cantilever arrays for parallel force spectroscopy of biological samples is presented. The parallel optical atomic force microscopy readout system has been developed and presented elsewhere. The arrays are ...

Fluidized States of Vibrated Granular Media Studied by Mechanical Spectroscopy

Daniele Mari, Gérard Gremaud, Alessandro Luigi Sellerio

We investigate the jamming transition observed in vibrated granular systems composed of millimeter size glass beads. When a granular system is submitted to vibrations with decreasing intensity, it evolves in a way similar to glass-forming liquids: from a l ...

A MLS-based lattice spring model for simulating elasticity of materials

Jiannong Fang, Jian Zhao, Gaofeng Zhao

A MLS-based lattice spring model is presented for numerical modeling of elasticity of materials. In the model, shear springs between particles are introduced in addition to normal springs. However, the unknowns contain only particle displacements but no pa ...
