In this work, a coupled formulation for modeling multiple piezoelectric energy harvesters based on vortex-induced vibrations phenomenon at arbitrary locations was presented and experimentally validated. The mathematical ...

"In measurements with cryogenic current comparators (CCCs), robustness against mechanical distortions is an issue. Sources of distortions are part of the experimental environment, efficient suppression is difficult. In a...

Vanadium oxide thin films were fabricated using a multi-step deposition process involving magnetron sputtering and sequential annealing. The structural, vibrational, and nanomechanical properties of the films were invest...

Lattice structures composed by parallel members named chords (or legs for vertical configurations) and connected by diagonals are very common among steel constructions in Civil and Mechanical Engineering and in particula...

This study addresses the determination of the fundamental frequency of the plate or slab when the edge x=a is free and the other three are subjected to all possible supported combinations. Eigenvalues are determined by u...

Polariton thermalization is a key process in achieving light–matter Bose–Einstein condensation, spanning from solid-state semiconductor microcavities at cryogenic temperatures to surface plasmon nanocavities with mol...

Abstract Background Native arteriovenous fistula (AVF) remains the gold standard for hemodialysis vascular access, but stenosis is the principal cause of access dysfunction and failure. Duplex ultrasound (DUS) criteria f...

This paper presents a study of adsorption and vibrational features of folic acid, using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). A gold-capped silicon nanopillar (Au NP) with a height of 600 nm and a width of 120 nm was...

This study explores the aeroelastic behavior of the IEA 15 MW wind turbine rotor during dynamic yaw maneuvers under storm conditions through high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The focus is on...

The paper presents a methodology and an example of determining the floor response spectrum of nuclear power plant building structures under earthquake loads. When critical energy infrastructure facilities are consider...

Cherenkov radiation (CR) is the electromagnetic shockwaves generated by the uniform motion of charged particles at a velocity exceeding the phase velocity of light in a given medium. In the Reststrahlen bands of hexagona...

Abstract Current research on the dynamics and vibrations of geared rotor systems primarily focuses on deterministic models. However, uncertainties inevitably exist in the gear system, which cause uncertainties in system ...

We present a study of the microscopic dynamics of water trapped in reverse non-ionic micelles by means of a series of molecular dynamics simulations. The analysis of the effects of micellar confinement on spectroscopical...

Abstract In the present study, yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using different precipitating agents, namely acetic acid, oxalic acid, sodium carbonate, and urea, through a controlled ...

Although laryngeal high-speed videoendoscopy (HSV) is crucial for studying vocal fold vibrations, its translation to clinical practice has been hindered by the large volume of data it produces and the difficulty in inter...

ABSTRACT Oscillatory dynamics play a central role in the description of a broad spectrum of physical systems. While often well‐approximated by linear models, the essential long‐term evolution and stability of these s...

Ultrafine pure and Mn-doped SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via the microwave technique. They were produced using tin chloride and hexamethylenetetramine at the molar ratio of 1:20. The concentrations of Mn in ...

The fields of biotechnology, pharmacy, agriculture, and health could all benefit greatly from advances in Nano science and nanotechnology. The synthesis, characterizations, and antibacterial qualities of titanium dioxide...

"Bone conduction is the transmission of acoustic energy to the inner ear by different paths involving the bones of the skull. In this work, we use the path the hand provides in order to transmit the sound coming from the...

One-dimensional photonic crystal (1D-PhC) pillar cavities allow transducing mechanical pillar vibrations to the optical domain, thereby relaxing the requirements typically associated with mechanical motion detection. In ...

An earthquake is a vibration that occurs due to plates at the base of the earth rubbing against each other. An earthquake can have several impacts, namely material loss and loss of life and trauma for some people who fee...

The article focuses on the impact of loads from railway rolling stock on the condition of the ballast prism, the propagation of vibrations in the foundation, and their effect on the dynamic behavior of a high-rise reinfo...

Abstract Tracking control of tendon-driven manipulators has become a prevalent research area. However, the existence of flexible elastic tendons generates substantial residual vibrations, resulting in difficulties for tr...

Numerous theoretical studies using various equation of state models have shown that quark matter may exist at the extreme densities in the cores of high-mass neutron stars. It has also been shown that a phase transition ...
