Dynamic Response of Systems with Structural Damping
(1961-10)The response of simple vibratory systems containing structural damping is studied analytically when the excitation is an impulse and when the excitation is stationary random vibration. It is found that in a strict sense ... -
A Dynamical Model for the Low Efficiency of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Reprogramming (Extended Version)
(2016-03-22)In the past decade, researchers have been able to obtain pluripotent stem cells directly from an organism’s differentiated cells through a process called cell reprogramming. This opens the way to potentially groundbreaking ... -
