Integrated optics, or guided wave optics, is playing an increasingly important role in optical communication networks and optical sensor systems today. Optical devices with diverse functionality based on different materials have been demonstrated. Recently, polymeric waveguide devices have attracted a great deal
Due to growing awareness of non-point source pollution treatment, the performance of grass swales as a highway runoff treatment and the effect of including a grass filter strip pretreatment area adjacent to the swale were evaluated using a field-scale input/output study on
Guessability, learnability, experienced user performance (EUP), re-usability, and system potential are the five components that would influence the usability of a product. Usability assessments of many different types of consumer products, word processor, public library’s web site, online learning programs, and election
NiTi shape memory alloys are promising implant materials due to their shape memory effect and superelasticity. However, the high nickel content has hampered wider applications of the materials. Excessive surface corrosion and wear of NiTi raise health concerns because Ni ions released
Title: Laser interferometric studies of solder joints of surface mounted chips In order to understand the stress-strain relationship in surface mount solder joints. previous research workers used strain gauges to measure the deformation of these joints. However, this method is indirect and
Analog-to-digital converters form the backbone of many real world systems. A compression and expansion (companding) capability is a useful tool to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of many of these applications. Frequently, power-signal systems… Contents 1 Introduction 2 Background 2.1 Analog-to-Digital Converter Characteristics
This investigation provides a detailed analysis of the hydraulic analogue technique used as a predictive tool for understanding smoke detector response within a complex enclosure. There currently exists no collectively accepted method for predicting the response of smoke detectors… Contents Chapter 1.
Due to the rapid advancement of technology, industrial-aged systems are being replaced by information-based models through system integration, where hardware and software are combined by a variety of communication means. As engineering systems become progressively complex, the challenge is to fully understand
This thesis is focused on the control and modeling of a robot finger. The control target of this project is position tracking during the finger motion. A new sliding mode control algorithm is developed in this project. It originates from the author’s
Structural dynamics engineers are asked to make measurements for distinguishing differences between two structures. A frequent approach is to compare the modal parameters by change in Modal Assurance Criterion behaviour which focuses only on the Eigen values and Eigen vectors. A Graphical
