Nanostripe of subwavelength width as a switchable semitransparent mirror for spin waves in a magnonic crystal

Spin wave transmission experiments are performed on a one-dimensional magnonic crystal (MC) where an injection pad for domain walls reverses the magnetization M of selected nanostripes independently from the otherwise saturated MC. The MC consists of a per ...

Low voltage vertical flaps arrays as optical modulating elements for reflective display and switchable gratings

Nico de Rooij, Wilfried Noell, Fabio Jutzi

A novel technology is presented for arrays of vertical flaps as optically modulating elements which are actuated electrostatically to horizontal position at low voltages of 30-50V. One application is a reflective display exhibiting a contrast ratio of 1:95 ...

Progress report of a project in very low bit-rate speech coding

Petr Motlicek, Philip Neil Garner, Milos Cernak

Background work in various levels of speech coding is reviewed, including unconstrained coding and recognition-synthesis approaches that assume the signal is speech. A pilot project in HMM-TTS based speech coding is then described, in which a comparison wi ...

Error control coding for orthogonal differential vector signaling

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Harm Cronie

Using a transformation based, at least in part, on a non-simple orthogonal matrix, data may be transmitted over a data bus in a manner that is resilient to one or more types of signal noise, that does not require a common reference at the transmission and ...

Experimental parametric study for hydraulic design of PKWs

Anton Schleiss, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro

The implementation of a new type of labyrinth spillway, called PKW (Piano Key Weir) reveals as a performing alternative for increasing the overflow capacity of existing dams. The optimal hydraulic design of such structure is however not obvious due to the ...

An Iterative Algorithm for Joint Signal and Interference Alignment

Krishna Kumar, Feng Xue

We consider the problem of signal design for transmission over an interference channel, along the lines of the recently proposed strategy of Interference Alignment. In the framework of interference alignment, each receiver maintains an interference subspac ...

Analysis And Optimization Of Robin-Robin Partitioned Procedures In Fluid-Structure Interaction Problems

Fabio Nobile, Christian Vergara

In the solution of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems, partitioned procedures are modular algorithms that involve separate fluid and structure solvers that interact in an iterative framework through the exchange of suitable transmission conditions ...

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis: household transmission and associated risk factors

Laurence Läser

Given the global burden of tuberculosis, and more precisely of multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB), one of the most pressing epidemiological issues is the study and prevention of transmission. The study aims to assess transmission within households ...
