Avoiding surface instability and slurry jamming in simultaneous multilayer coating of structured particulate films
(Springer US, 2021-10)Abstract Simultaneous multilayer coating techniques are widely known, but their industrial application remains limited to narrow market sectors. One barrier to adoption may be the mismatch between industries ... -
Avoiding the perils of cyclic growth on Dell's direct environment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)The high technology industry suffers from a phenomenon that is common to many businesses and industries throughout the world - a "hockey-stick" demand skew. Such a skew derives its name from the shape of the quarterly ... -
aVoilà : optimizing and evaluating procurement paths across the commercial aviation product life cycle
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Spirit AeroSystems is engaged in an unprecedented collaboration to supply a composite fuselage section for a new aircraft program. In most cases, Spirit cannot effectively leverage its composite sourcing experience with ... -
Awakened by a sleeping pill
(eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd., 2013-11)Characteristic changes in brain activity accompany the paradoxical increase in alertness observed in some patients with severe brain injury when they are treated with the sleeping pill zolpidem. -
The awakening of the CDK10/Cyclin M protein kinase
(Impact Journals/National Center for Biotechnology Information (U.S.), 2017-02)Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) play important roles in the control of fundamental cellular processes. Some of the most characterized CDKs are considered to be pertinent therapeutic targets for cancers and other diseases, ... -
Awakening Perast : interconnecting past and present architecture in a baroque town
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Perast, a baroque town on the Montenegrin coast, and a UNESCO protected site, is an amalgam of nearly three hundred buildings that capture the region's unique history. A vibrant regional center in the XVII and XVIII ... -
Award-Winning Laboratory Technology Aims to Prevent Aircraft Collisions
(2023-12-18)A next-generation collision avoidance system will help pilots and unmanned aircraft safely navigate the airspace. -
Award-Winning Tools Enable Agencies to Efficiently and Easily Analyze Surveillance Footage
(2021-08-09)Closed-circuit television and other surveillance systems are commonplace in busy, high-traffic areas. However, when investigators need to use these systems to search through recorded footage, these systems’ clunky interfaces ... -
Awarding Equitably: a process design framework for city grantmakers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Internal processes such as hiring, procurement, and grantmaking are the hidden engine that power the delivery of local government services. My research begins with a case study on designing the City of Boston’s organization-wide ... -
Aware surfaces : large-scale, surface-based sensing for new modes of data collection, analysis, and human interaction
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)This thesis describes the design and construction of pressure sensing matrices for capturing human location and activity data from large surfaces in a space such as the floors, walls, tabletops, countertops, and furniture. ... -
AXCIS : rapid processor architectural exploration using canonical instruction segments
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In the early stages of processor design, computer architects rely heavily on simulation to explore a very large design space. Although detailed microarchitectural simulation is effective and widely used for evaluating ... -
Axel
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-12)Recent scientific findings suggest that some of the most interesting sites for future exploration of planetary surfaces lie in terrains that are currently inaccessible to conventional robotic rovers. To provide robust and ... -
Axial and transverse momentum balance in subchannel analysis.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1975) -
Axial Casimir force
(American Physical Society, 2019-04)Quantum fluctuations in vacuum can exert a dissipative force on moving objects, which is known as Casimir friction. Especially, a rotating particle in the vacuum will eventually slow down due to the dissipative Casimir ... -
Axial charge of the triton from lattice QCD

Axial vectors in DarkCast
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2022-11-21)Abstract In this work, we explore new spin-1 states with axial couplings to the standard model fermions. We develop a data-driven method to estimate their hadronic decay rates based ... -
Axial-Current Matrix Elements in Light Nuclei from Lattice QCD
(Sissa Medialab, 2016-08)I present results from the first lattice QCD calculations of axial-current matrix elements in light nuclei, performed by the NPLQCD collaboration. Precision calculations of these matrix elements, and the subsequent extraction ...
