(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Induced regeneration studies from three organs in the adult mammal (skin, peripheral nerves, and the conjunctiva) suggest an antagonistic relationship between myofibroblast-mediated contraction of wounds and induced ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The overall objective of this thesis was to determine the limitations of contemporary Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) and to identify areas for future improvements. In line with this objective, the first goal was to quantify ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Knowledge of lumbar spine biomechanics in living human subjects is fundamental for understanding mechanisms of spinal injury and pathology, for improvement of corresponding clinical treatments, and for design of spinal ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)(cont.) A multi-criteria objective function uses the researcher's preference to optimize both room assignments and procedure start time. A Tabu search meta-heuristic has been developed to generate a near-optimal solution. ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis presents an integrated study of high efficiency photoanodes for water splitting using silicon and iron-oxide. The fundamental limitations of silicon to water splitting applications were overcome by an ultrathin ...
-
(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 ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In the U.S. news, healthcare related headlines frequent the covers of newspapers and make regular primetime news appearances and the U.S. is not alone. The world is awakening to a need for more equal access to healthcare ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis describes the implementation of three Kaizen events designed to improve efficiency on a gauge production line which consists of both semiconductor and mechanical equipment for manufacturing complex products ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This study explores the use of Kalman filtering of measurements from an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to provide information on the orientation of a robot for balance control. A test bed was created to characterize the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)There are 1.6 billion people across the globe who still live without access to electricity. For this group, the modern electrical framework providing fundamental services for health, food and water processing and storage, ...
