(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In an effort to build internal combustion engines with both reduced brake-specific fuel consumption and better emission control, engineers developed the Direct Injection Spark Ignition (DISI) engine. DISI engines combine ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Equipment and procedures were developed to test two passive microfluidic interconnect rings held together by the friction forces on the contact surfaces. The second design forms fluid seals by means of thin flared rings ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Diesel particulate filters (DPF) have seen widespread growth as an effective means for meeting increasingly rigorous particle emissions regulations. There is growing interest to exploit passive regeneration of DPFs to ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Autonomous underwater vehicles such as gliders have emerged as valuable scientific platforms due to their increasing uses in several oceanic applications, ranging from security, acoustic surveillance and military reconnaissance ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)From naval operations to ocean science missions, the importance of autonomous vehicles is increasing with the advances in underwater robotics technology. Due to the dynamic and intermittent underwater environment and the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis develops new methods for path planning of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for adaptive sampling. The problem is approached in an optimization framework and two methods are developed to solve it based on Mixed ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A Positive Crankcase Ventilation, or PCV, valve is required by internal combustion engines in order to regulate the flow of blow-by gases out of the crankcase and into the intake air stream. Fluctuations in the pressure ...
