The embossing of thermoplastic polymeric plates is valuable for manufacturing micro- and nanofluidic devices and diffractive optics. Meanwhile, the imprinting of sub-micrometer-thickness thermoplastic layers has emerged ...

In modern intensive care units (ICUs) a vast and varied amount of physiological data is measured and collected, with the intent of providing clinicians with detailed information about the physiological state of each patient. ...

Improvement of performance of robots has necessitated technological advances in control algorithms, mechanical structures, and electric machines. Running, legged robots have presented challenges in the area of electric ...

Generation of high-order harmonics has emerged as a powerful technique for the generation of broadband coherent radiation in the EUV regime. This has lead to the development of table-top EUV sources that can produce ...

This thesis presents the nonlinear analysis, design, fabrication, and testing of an axial-gap magnetic induction micro machine, which is a two-phase planar motor in which the rotor is suspended above the stator via mechanical ...
