(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The flame plasma treatment studied in this thesis was able to oxidize the surface of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) in a fraction of a second. It was found to be a much faster way to modify PDMS surface wettability than the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Currently there are no of MRI image-based stereotactic apparatus for target determination in the brain of animals. Until now, the only stereotactic devices for directing problems and electrodes in animal brains for ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)A year after the South Asia earthquake, over 60% of the survivors are still vulnerable due to the lack of adequate shelter, the absence of basic facilities for water and sanitation and livelihood restoration. The harsh ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This paper discusses the synchronization and adaptation of systems of nonlinear oscillators. The paper presents several simulations, which attempt to illustrate these systems as clearly as possible, in particular in the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This thesis examined the characteristics of the Hexamite Hx11 ultrasonic sensor for the purpose of three dimensional positioning for mobile robots with multi-plane motions. The sensor system was studied and an experiment ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)American consumers make a number of decisions that significantly impact their energy use. Some of the most important of these decisions were identified and analyzed for the purpose of including them in a Consumer Energy ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Energy is a very important aspect of human life. In the past few centuries, energy consumption has increased dramatically to a point where humans are very much dependant of energy. Under the current nonrenewable energy ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A one-person cardboard structure was designed to temporarily shelter the homeless during harsh weather conditions. The overall form is based on the folding Yoshimura pattern. It is collapsible, wind and water resistant, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The potential of using carbon nanotube coated flexible cloth as strain gauges was studied. Samples were prepared by sonicating strips of cloth inside a 1mg/ml carbon nanotube in propylene carbonate solution. A dynamic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Testing is a critical element of systems engineering, as it allows engineers to ensure that products meet specifications before they go into production. The testing literature, however, has been largely theoretical, and ...
