Design and analysis of an experimental facility for inlet vortex investigation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982) -
Design and analysis of artifact-resistive finger photoplethysmographic sensors for vital sign monitoring
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)A miniaturized, telemetric, photoplethysmograph sensor for long-term, continuous monitoring is presented in this thesis. The sensor, called a "ring sensor," is attached to a finger base for monitoring beat-to-beat pulsation, ... -
Design and analysis of axial aspirated compressor stages
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The pressure ratio of axial compressor stages can be significantly increased by controlling the development of blade and endwall boundary layers in regions of adverse pressure gradient by means of boundary layer suction. ... -
Design and analysis of bio-inspired 3D printing body armor for neck support and protection
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)The thesis presents the design and analysis process of a bio-inspired 3D printing body armor for neck support and protection. There are numerous examples of the structural skin or body armor among animals that generates ... -
Design and analysis of diagnostic machines utilizing compliant mechanisms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this paper, the design and testing of an ankle rehabilitation device is presented. The purpose of the research done is to provide physicians with a diagnostics tool that can quantitatively measure the severity of an ... -
Design and analysis of digital watermarking, information embedding, and data hiding systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Digital watermarking, information embedding, and data hiding systems embed information, sometimes called a digital watermark, inside a host signal, which is typically an image, audio signal, or video signal. The host signal ... -
Design and analysis of double-layer grids
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999) -
Design and analysis of fingernail sensors for measurement of fingertip touch fouce and finger posture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)A new type of wearable sensor for detecting fingertip touch force and finger posture is presented. Unlike traditional electronic gloves, in which sensors are embedded along the finger and on the fingerpads, this new device ... -
Design and analysis of flow control algorithms for data networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997) -
Design and analysis of high-speed continuous micro-contact printing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Micro-contact printing ([mu]CP) is a technology that prints directly off a patterned elastomeric stamp by transferring only a molecular monolayer of ink to a surface, providing a low-cost, high resolution and widely ... -
Design and Analysis of High-Stability THz Molecular Clock System
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-09)Miniaturized frequency references with high stability are crucial for applications such as navigation and wireless networking. Recently, chip-scale molecular clocks (CSMCs) have achieved excellent stability performance by ... -
Design and analysis of hydraulically driven actuation system For a parabolic solar trough
