An experimental study of turbulence by phase-contrast imaging in the DIII-D takamak
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997) -
Experimental study of turbulent heat transport in Alcator C-Mod
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The comprehensive analysis was performed to study turbulent transport in Alcator CMod plasmas in this thesis. A new Correlation Electron Cyclotron Emission (CECE) diagnostic was designed and installed as a part of this ... -
An experimental study of unsteady separation in a two-dimensional flow
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)An experimental study of flow separation in an incompressible two-dimensional unsteady flow was undertaken with the aim of validating recently developed flow separation criteria, which are based on kinematic principles. ... -
An experimental study of wind ripples
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1981) -
An experimental study of windturbine noise
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982) -
An experimental study of Worthington jet formation after impact of solid spheres
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The impacts of solid spheres with the free surface have been studied for over one hundred years. In this thesis, the Worthington jets resulting from the impacts of hydrophobic and hydrophilic spheres with the free surface ... -
An experimental study on mixing induced by gravity currents on a sloping bottom in a rotating fluid
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Mixing induced by gravity currents on a sloping bottom was studied through laboratory experiments in a rotating fluid. The dense fluid on the sloping bottom formed a gravity current that could be in regimes where the flow ... -
Experimental study on the effect of misfit and mismatch of ship plating welds
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Experimental study on the response of fine sediments to wave agitation and associated wave attenuation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989) -
An experimental study on the structure-property relationship of composite fluid electrodes for use in high energy density semi-solid flow cells
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)A novel electrochemical energy storage device, the semi-solid flow cell (SSFC), has recently been demonstrated. The device features a complex fluid composite as its anode and cathode. Both electrodes incorporate particles ... -
Experimental technique for optimizing aerosolized vaccine efficacy by Erika J. Sandford.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Vaccination via aerosol has been proven to be as safe, as effective, and more appropriate for transportation when compared with vaccination via injection. These advantages make aerosolized vaccinations a realistic alternative ... -
Experimental test of the inverse compton effect hypothesis for the x-ray source in Scorpius
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1964) -
Experimental testbeds for real-time motion planning : implementation and lessons learned
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)A fundamental step in research on autonomous robotic systems is the actual development and test of experimental platforms, to validate the system design and the effective integration of hardware and real-time software. The ... -
Experimental testing of LIGO vibration isolation system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory) project is designed to detect gravitational waves using precision interferometry. The detection from astrophysical sources has the potential to test Einstein's ... -
Experimental tests of an electro-anatomical model of the rat's cochlea

Experimental tests of electroweak theories at MARK-J
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1984) -
Experimental tests of parallel impurity transport theory in Tokamak plasmas
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In realistic reactor scenarios, high temIperature plasmas will be composed of not only the fusion reactants and products, but also inpurities introduced purposefully or uninitentionally from plasma facing materials. In ... -
Experimental transport of intensity diffraction tomography
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, I perform intensity-based tomographic phase imaging in two ways. First, I utilize the paraxial transport of intensity equation (TIE) to construct phase maps of a phase object at multiple projection angles ... -
Experimental Validation of Melt Probe Models for the Exploration of Ocean Worlds
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)Ocean Worlds, where large volumes of water may exist under a layer of ice, are strong candidates for the first discovery of extraterrestrial life. Jupiter’s moon Europa is currently believed to have at least twice as much ... -
Experimental validation of the efficient robotic transportation algorithm for large-scale flexible space structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)A new large space structure transportation method proposed recently is modified and experimentally validated. The proposed method is to use space robots' manipulators to control the vibration, instead of their reaction ...
