In this article, an analytical model for current-induced vortex core displacement is developed. By using this model, one can solve the equations of motion analytically to determine the effects of the adiabatic and nonadiabatic spin-torque terms. The final ...
The loss of feedback linearizability of control systems is studied when restricted to a submanifold of the state-space. The slow approximation of singularly perturbed systems also falls into this category. We show that even if the static-feedback lineariza ...
We present 2D cantilever arrays for parallel AFM and their fabrication process using a silicon nitride cantilever with molded tip as the base element of the array. They are designed either for (i) force indentation onto living cells and stiffness mapping, ...

We review the details of domain wall (DW) propagation due to spin-polarized currents that could potentially be used in magnetic data storage devices based on domains and DWs. We discuss briefly the basics of the underlying spin torque effect and show how t ...
We present the complete fabrication of 3D microenvironments for single-cell culture. They are based on SiO2 cantilevers bending out-of-plane with radii as small as 20 um. By engineering the intrinsic stress of SiO2 thin films, we were able to tune the radi ...
This paper presents an investigation of the hydro elastic behavior of vibrating blades in hydraulic machines, which is of strong interest for turbo machinery applications. As a representative case study for vibrating blade in hydraulic machines, a NACA 000 ...
To better understand normative behavior for quantitative evaluation of motor recovery after injury, we studied arm movements by non-injured Rhesus monkeys during a food-retrieval task. While seated, monkeys reached, grasped, and retrieved food items. We re ...
The scope of the present work is the application of a particular class of strain energy function, based on the logarithmic strain, for the prediction of the twisting moment and axial force of a rubber circular cylinder under combined extension and torsion. ...
A reversed shoulder prosthesis is the general treatment of glenohumeral arthritis and concomitant rotator cuff arthropathy. However, failure due to loosening of the components remains a concern. The purpose of this study was to examine the forces that occu ...
Today’s surgical navigation systems are difficult to use for deformable organs. State of the art technology struggles to continuously update and display preoperative information such that it corresponds to the actual position of the organ. An update method ...
