(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The ability to characterize and control cellular responses in vitro has far reaching implications for basic science and applied medical research. For well over 125 years, researchers have studied the behavior of biological ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The main goal of this thesis is to study the coupled interactions between chemically and mechanically characterized materials and cells that are relevant to microvascular physiology and pathology. In particular, the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Chemomechanical coupling in single eukaryotic animal cells is investigated in the con- text of the attached (substratum-adhered) and the suspended (free-floating) states. These dichotomous configurations determine behavioral ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices including solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are enabled by materials known as "non-stoichiometric oxides" that contain large concentrations ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The Lifshitz formulation is a quantum electrodynamic, first principals formulation used to determine van der Waals - London dispersion interactions in the continuum limit. It has many advantages over crude, pairwise potential ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)High optical concentrations without excess heating in a stationary system can be achieved with a luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). Neodymium (Nd) and ytterbium (Yb) are excellent infrared LSC materials: inexpensive, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1945)

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1926)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Predicting macroscopic properties of materials starting from an atomistic or electronic level description can be a formidable task due to the many orders of magnitude in length and time scales that need to be spanned. A ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Graded buffers oflnxGa1-xP on GaP ([Delta]x[lnxGa1-x]P/GaP) can be used to fabricate potentially high performance, epitaxial transparent substrates light-emitting diodes (ETSLEDs ). Practical devices have thus far been ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1953)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Solar photovoltaic (PV) deployment has been steadily expanding over the past decade. While decreasing our reliance on fossil fuels will be beneficial for the environment, increasing our exposure to an intermittent renewable ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Three-dimensional biomaterial scaffolds have begun to shown promise for cell delivery for cardiac tissue engineering. Although various polymers and material forms have been explored, there is a need for: injectable gels ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Molten salts are important heat transfer fluids used in nuclear, solar and other high temperature engineering systems. Dispersing nanoparticles in molten salts can enhance the heat transfer capabilities of the fluid. High ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)RNA-based therapy is an exciting new realm of experimental medicine due to the diverse roles of RNA in the human body. RNA function depends on sequence, structure, and cellular location. Whereas cytosolic short-interfering ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Small dimension engineering tubular structures subjected to a complex load system are designed like hollow circular shells. For minimum weight design, the ratio between the shell radius and the thickness has to be as large ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Block copolymer photonic gels are a simple and easily processed material which responds rapidly to environmental stimuli through a color change. The diblock copolymer that forms the gel self-assembles into a lamellar ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)In the drive from microfabrication to nanofabrication, porous alumina templates may play a key role in technological evolution. Under the right processing conditions, ordered pores can grow in anodic aluminum oxide, which ...
