(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)There has been renewed interest over the past decade or two in the potential of using thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems for direct conversion of thermal energy into electricity. The invention of TPV systems can be traced ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Self-assembling micron-scale structures based on standard photolithographic and thin film deposition techniques are investigated. Differences in residual stress between successive thin film layers causes the structures to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Marine mammal whistle calls present an attractive medium for covert underwater communications. High quality models of the whistle calls are needed in order to synthesize natural-sounding whistles with embedded information. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis explains when, and why, solder-based phase change materials (PCMs) are best-suited as a means to modify a robotic mechanism's kinematic and elastomechanic behavior. The preceding refers to mechanisms that possess ...

Modeling and performance of a Pneumatic/Hydraulic hybrid actuator with tunable mechanical impedance (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1984)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1977)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This Masters thesis, conducted in support of the All Electric Ship (AES) early design effort, presents two computational programs for analysis and simulation: a full-scale, end-to-end AES simulator and an analytical ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1975)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The formation of carbonaceous engine deposits is a long standing and well documented phenomenon limiting the lifetime of diesel engines. Carbon remnants coat the surfaces of the combustion chamber, piston, and valves. As ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Carbonaceous deposits have long plagued the internal combustion engine, yet a fundamental comprehension of their underlying causes remains to be developed. In particular, piston land deposits can bring about an array of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1984)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)The dynamic operational nature of naval power and propulsion requires Ship Design and Program Managers to design and select prime movers using a much more complex speed profile rather than typical of commercial vessels. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)In this thesis, we conduct research toward understanding coupled physics-biology processes in ocean straits. Our focus is on new analytical studies and higher-order simulations of idealized dynamics that are relevant to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Managing the product development process is of vital concern to corporations. A critical aspect of product development that negatively impacts program cost and timing is rework. Unfortunately, in large organizations with ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)This thesis develops a method by which overtime could be reduced in a highly variable drug substance purification manufacturing environment. Purification production overtime (20%) is a big cost driver at Building XX1 (BXX). ...
