Ionic conductivity and exchange current density of non-aqueous lithium polysulfide electrolyte
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Lithium-polysulfide flow batteries, which utilize the high solubility of lithium polysulfide in non-aqueous electrolytes to enable flowable electrodes, have high theoretical energy density and low raw materials cost. To ... -
The iron bridge over the Merrimac River at Tyngsboro, Mass.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1876) -
Iron-gallium alloys : temperature and field effects on [lambda]100 and magnetic anisotropy measurements
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Magnetostriction measurements were taken on samples of Fe-Ga alloys (Galfenol) containing between 18% and 35% Ga in fields of 5 kOe to 24 kOe from room temperature to liquid nitrogen temperature. In addition, room temperature ... -
Irradiated recycled plastic as a concrete additive for improved chemo-mechanical properties in hardened cement pastes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Portland cement based concrete production contributes heavily to greenhouse gas emissions. Thus a need exists for the development of durable and sustainable concrete with a lower carbon footprint. This can be achieved when ... -
An isolated urban community.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1964) -
Isolation and transmissibility of shipboard equipment with carbon fiber reinforced polymer mount
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)The isolation and transmissibility of shipboard equipment is important to the function of a ship. The transmission of vibration from an engine to its surroundings can be devastating to sensitive equipment and disrupt normal ... -
An isoperibol calorimeter for the investigation of biochemical kinetics and isothermal titration calorimetry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Isothermal titration calorimetry is a technique used to measure the enthalpy change associated with a molecular binding interaction. From these data, the binding constant for the reaction can be determined. In the scope ... -
Issues concerning an assisted-access information model for Africa
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)The majority of people in developing countries are without information access, despite the significant potential this access has to improve their standard of living and to enable local efforts at environmental conservation ... -
It's getting hot in here : temperature gradients in lithium-ion battery packs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)A 5 channel, 40A battery cycler was constructed for the purpose of carrying out thermal studies on Lithium-ion battery packs. Boston Power Swing Key 442 battery blocks were tested to determine the magnitude of the temperature ... -

Java-based modeling of the actin polymerization cycle
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This thesis project combines work on two aspects· of a project entitled "A Mechanistic Model of the Actin Cycle" [ 1,2]. This project uses accumulated biochemical research to write a broad mathematical model that describes ... -
Jean Santeuil and Marcel Proust : a revaluation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1953) -
Jelf : a web framework for automatic privacy policy enforcement
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)As people share more personal data on the web, it is increasingly important to correctly enforce policies on sensitive data. To address this problem, we have developed Jelf, a web framework that allows the programmer to ... -
Jet losses in partial admission turbine
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1958) -
Jet quenching in the compact muon solenoid at the LHC
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis we perform analyses on simulated data that allow us to demonstrate the sensitivity of the CMS experiment to certain jet quenching observables. In particular, two theoretical scenarios which mimic RHIC data ... -
Jet substructure at the Large Hadron Collider
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)In this thesis, we use the CMS Open Data to study the 2-prong substructure of jets. We use CMS's particle flow reconstruction algorithm to obtain jet constituents, which we then use to perform various jet substructure ... -
A joule heating mechanism for high-speed fused filament fabrication
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Extrusion-based additive manufacturing, known as fused filament fabrication (FFF), is one the most accessible methods of rapid prototyping, capable of handling a wide variety of engineering thermoplastics. Productivity ...
