Two dimensional electromagnetic models (i.e. assuming an infinite length) for the vacuum chamber elements in a synchrotron are often quite useful to give a first estimate of the total beam-coupling impedance. In these models, classical approximations can f ...
The internal friction phenomenon in metallic and polymeric shape memory materials is analyzed. The experimental results permit validation of a theoretical model which describes qualitatively the temperature dependence of the internal friction for the inves ...
An analysis of the tribo-mechanical properties of the Ni-Co system, at the submicrometric contact scale, is conducted using displacement sensing nanoindentation. In particular, the influence of contact depth and surface finishing methods on the hardness, H ...
The wrinkling and delamination of stiff thin films adhered to a polymer substrate have important applications in “flexible electronics.” The resulting periodic structures, when used for circuitry, have remarkable mechanical properties because stretching or ...
The bone diagnostic instrument is designed to measure materials properties of bone even if it is covered with soft tissue such as periosteum, connective tissue and skin. It uses (1) a probe assembly, consisting of a reference probe that penetrates soft tis ...
The main objective of this innovation is to develop bituminous underlayers (sometimes called base course) with high percentage of re-use materials at low cost and with high performance. In fact, this innovation concerns the formulation and assessment of hi ...
In the periphery, discrimination of a target is usually impaired by flanking elements. This crowding effect is often explained in terms of pooling, ie target and flanker signals are averaged. The pooling hypothesis predicts stronger crowding when more flan ...
In this paper we show how healthy subjects can operate a non-invasive asynchronous BCI for controlling a FES neuroprosthesis and manipulate objects to carry out daily tasks in ecological conditions. Both, experienced and novel subjects proved to be able to ...

In selecting and designing materials for certain engineering applications, the resistance to material damage or removal of material from contacting surfaces in relative motion is an important factor. To determine these properties, laboratory tests are rout ...
Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels are being investigated as possible structural material for components of future nuclear power plants. The dispersoids in the matrix (yttria particles) serve as pinning points for moving dislocations, and thereby i ...
