Dynamic Phase Alignment in Navier-Stokes Turbulence
(American Physical Society (APS), 2021) -
Dynamic physical affordances for shape-changing and deformable user interfaces
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The world is filled with tools and devices designed to fit specific needs and goals, and their physical form plays an important role in helping users understand their use. These physical affordances provide products and ... -
Dynamic pigmentary and structural coloration within cephalopod chromatophore organs
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-03-01)Chromatophore organs in cephalopod skin are known to produce ultra-fast changes in appearance for camouflage and communication. Light-scattering pigment granules within chromatocytes have been presumed to be the sole source ... -
Dynamic pixel selection in free-space photon-counting optical communication systems for the exploitation of excess channel capacity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Atmospheric turbulence in free-space optical communications turns signal demodulation and decoding into a multimode problem as wavefronts of the transmitting laser beams are warped spatially past the desired form of a ... -
Dynamic planning and control for large-scale infrastructure projects : route 3N as a case study
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Dynamic Planning and control Methodology : understanding and managing iterative error and change cycles in large-scale concurrent design and construction projects
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Construction projects are uncertain and complex in nature. One of the major driving forces that may account for these characteristics is iterative cycles caused by errors and changes. Errors and changes worsen project ... -
Dynamic planning and control methodology for large-scale concurrent construction projects
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)Concurrent construction has been widely used for modem construction projects, as a method to shorten time-to-market. Concurrent construction, however, requires a careful and systematic approach to its planning and management, ... -
Dynamic planning and two- or multistage programming under risk
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, 1975) -
Dynamic planning under uncertainty for theater airlift operations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)In this thesis, we analyze intratheater airlift operations, and propose methods to improve the planning process. The United States Air Mobility Command is responsible for the air component of the world wide U.S. military ... -
A Dynamic Platform for Runtime Adaptation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-05)We present a middleware platform for assembling pervasive applications that demand fault-tolerance and adaptivity in distributed, dynamic environments. Unlike typical adaptive middleware approaches, in which sophisticated ... -
Dynamic polarizability and collective modes in narrow-band electron systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)The family of moiré materials, in particular the magic angle twisted bilayer graphene, has emerged recently as a platform to study strongly interacting physics. This thesis analyzes the impact of the ultranarrow Bloch bands ... -
Dynamic pose graph SLAM: Long-term mapping in low dynamic environments
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-05-16)Maintaining a map of an environment that changes over time is a critical challenge in the development of persistently autonomous mobile robots. Many previous approaches to mapping assume a static world. In this work we ... -
Dynamic positioning of beacon vehicles for cooperative underwater navigation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012-10)Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are used for an ever increasing range of applications due to the maturing of the technology. Due to the absence of the GPS signal underwater, the correct estimation of its position is ... -
Dynamic Potential Intensity: An improved representation of the ocean's impact on tropical cyclones
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2015-08)To incorporate the effects of tropical cyclone (TC)-induced upper ocean mixing and sea surface temperature (SST) cooling on TC intensification, a vertical average of temperature down to a fixed depth was proposed as a ... -
Dynamic power allocation and routing for satellite and wireless networks with time varying channels
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Satellite and wireless networks operate over time varying channels that depend on attenuation conditions, power allocation decisions, and inter-channel interference. In order to reliably integrate these systems into a high ... -
Dynamic power allocation under arbitrary varying channels - An online approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-06)A major problem in wireless networks is coping with limited resources, such as bandwidth and energy. These issues become a major algorithmic challenge in view of the dynamic nature of the wireless domain. We consider in ... -
Dynamic prediction of terminal-area severe convective weather penetration
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Despite groundbreaking technology and revised operating procedures designed to improve the safety of air travel, numerous aviation accidents still occur every year. According to a recent report by the FAA's Aviation Weather ... -
Dynamic Prefetching of Data Tiles for Interactive Visualization
(2015-10-19)In this paper, we present ForeCache, a general-purpose tool for exploratory browsing of large datasets. ForeCache utilizes a client-server architecture, where the user interacts with a lightweight client-side interface to ... -
