(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis presents an approach to the structural design and optimization of a non-pressurized manned submersible (NPMS), a type of fully "flooded" submersible based on a SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV) Design Concept. Using ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Voice coils are a configuration of Linear Lorentz-force Actuator (LLA) that offer efficient transduction of electrical energy into linear motion. The simple geometry of a typical voice coil motor makes the configuration ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Hepatocyte morphology is known to be closely linked to cellular functions. As a result, morphogenesis is extremely important to attain organ-equivalent levels of tissue function from in vitro cultures. Thus, a challenge ...
