(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)A sufficient understanding of the pathology that leads to cardiovascular disease is currently deficient. Atherosclerosis is a complex disease that is believed to be initiated and promoted by linked biochemical and biomechanical ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The contribution of this thesis is the development of tractable computational methods for reducing the complexity of two classes of dynamical systems, finite alphabet Hidden Markov Models and Jump Linear Systems with finite ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Modeling is an essential part of the analysis and the design of dynamic systems. Contemporary computer algorithms can produce very detailed models for complex systems with little time and effort. However, over complicated ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)In nature, one finds many examples of collective motion, from flocking birds to swarming bees. Any one organism makes its decisions based solely on local information; either it can sense what its close neighbors are doing, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Platform-based product families have been an effective way for companies to offer increased variety into markets, while containing the resulting complexity of developing large numbers of products. A product platform is the ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This paper discusses a modification to the Exploration-Exploitation Experts algorithm - (EEE). The EEE is a generalization of the standard experts algorithm which is designed for use in reactive environments. In these ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)This thesis presents new observations of the hysteresis behavior of piezoelectric stack actuators and proposes an Input-Range Dependent Maxwell Model for more accurate hysteresis compensation. Experimental studies show ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This research continues the work begun by Sungho Jo and Steve G. Massaquoi on modeling human walking and upright balance. The model of human neurological control of balance and gait generation put forward by Jo and Massaquoi ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The atomic force microscope (AFM) has become an essential tool in a wide range of fields, from materials science and semiconductor research to molecular biology. Various research efforts have enhanced the capabilities of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)This work analyzes various topologies of phosphorylation cycles with respect to two properties: modularity, that is the ability to be treated as separate functional units irrespective of interconnections, and insulation, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Electrical power demands for naval surface combatants are projected to rise with the development of increasingly complex and power intensive combat systems. This trend also coincides with the need of achieving maximum fuel ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A truss climbing robot has been extensively investigated because of its wide range of promising applications such as construction and inspection of truss structures. It is designed to have degrees of freedom to move in ...
