Effects of resonator geometry and substrate stiffness on the tunability of a deformable microwave metasurface
Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Rayehe Karimi Mahabadi, Taha Goudarzi
Tunable metasurfaces can shift their resonant frequency through different approaches, one of which is applying mechanical deformations. Here, we show the effects of two key factors on the tunability of deformable metasurfaces; the resonator geometry and su ...
2022Finite element investigation of stability bracing force demands of steel moment resisting frame columns under cyclic loading
This thesis examines the out-of-plane stability bracing of deep wide flange steel columns in moment resisting frames (MRFs) under cyclic loading. This is performed through a detailed continuum finite element analysis including a validation process and a pa ...
2021Tack and deformation based sensorised gripping using conductive hot melt adhesive
The development of a universal method for grasping objects of varying morphology, material and size in unstructured environments remains an unsolved challenge. There is no one 'universal' solution which can function with low positional precision, can grasp ...
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.2018Dynamics of falling films on the outside of a vertical rotating cylinder: waves, rivulets and dripping transitions
François Gallaire, Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman
Falling liquid films on the underside of a plate or on the outside of a rotating cylinder are subject to a destabilizing body force. The evolution of the film topology is determined by interactions between the Kapitza and the Rayleigh-Taylor instability, l ...
Cambridge University Press2017Restoring Natural Sensory Feedback in Real-Time Bidirectional Hand Prostheses
Silvestro Micera, Marco Capogrosso, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Jacopo Rigosa, Marco Bonizzato
Hand loss is a highly disabling event that markedly affects the quality of life. To achieve a close to natural replacement for the lost hand, the user should be provided with the rich sensations that we naturally perceive when grasping or manipulating an o ...
American Association for the Advancement of Science2014The increase in protein contour length depends on mechanical unfolding conditions
Many proteins in alive organisms have a domain structure providing them the possibility to reversible unfolding, which seems to play an essential role in those processes occurring in tissues which are controlled by mechanical cellular tension. In this work ...
