The development of short pulsed lasers has progressed steadily over the past 30 years. In the search for better techniques and materials to generate shorter and...
A review article that briefly summarizes the various types of radio controlled wristwatches and the technology behind them. It includes a short description of...
The rediscovery of Mendel's laws a century ago launched the science that William Bateson called "genetics," and led to a new view of evolution combining...
This paper presents a feedback control scheme for transmission of video signals over mobile ad-hoc channels. The scheme is a combination of cross-layer (local)...

In this paper, we report 4H-SiC power DMOSFETs capable of blocking 10 kV. The devices were scaled up to 5 A, which is a factor of 25 increase in device area...
National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, USA ABSTRACT: As manufacturing and commerce become ever more global in nature, companies...
Industries that process and use metals, from microelectronics to aerospace, can use phase equilibria data for complex alloys (three or more components) and...
A new matrix-free algorithm for the solution of linear inequality constrained, large-scale trust-region sub-problems is presented. The matrix-free nature of the...

The efficiency of regenerative refrigerators is generally maximized when the pressure and flow are in phase near the midpoint of the regenerator. Such a phase...
The size of Stirling and Stirling-type pulse tube cryocoolers is dominated by the size of the pressure oscillator. Such cryocoolers typically operate at...
Magnetic metallic glasses, having large magnetic moments and high Curie Temperatures (TC), have not been widely studied as magnetic refrigerants. In this study...

It was shown that adding one atomic percent Fe to Gd5Ge2Si2 greatly reduced its large hysteresis losses, broadened the magnetic entropy change, ?Sm, versus...
Our recent research on amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) dental materials has resulted in biocompatible composites with high remineralizing ability and moderate...

In this study, the effects of two comonomers (the low molecular mass, hydrophilic 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) vs. the high molecular mass, less...
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) can conform to complex cavity shapes and set in situ to form bioresorbable hydroxyapatite. The aim of this study was to introduce...
We present rigorous results on the diagonalization of Bogoliubov Hamiltonian for a soliton condensate. Using the complete and orthonormalized set of...
The development of technical equations of state using the 12-parameter Span-Wagner functional form for four siloxanes is presented in two parts. The fluids...
In this work, 1 υm thick FeCeo films with -320 MPa compressive stress and FeCo/NiFe films with 600 MPa tensile stress were patterened into 5υm x 20 υm elements...
