An efficient phase-field model of shear fractures using deviatoric stress split
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2023-05-24)Abstract We propose a phase-field model of shear fractures using the deviatoric stress decomposition. This choice allows us to use general three-dimensional Mohr–Coulomb’s failure function for formulating the ... -
Efficient photon coupling from a diamond nitrogen vacancy center by integration with silica fiber
(Nature Publishing Group, 2015-10)A central goal in quantum information science is to efficiently interface photons with single optical modes for quantum networking and distributed quantum computing. Here, we introduce and experimentally demonstrate a ... -
An Efficient Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Interface Circuit Using a Bias-Flip Rectifier and Shared Inductor
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-01)Harvesting ambient vibration energy through piezoelectric means is a popular energy harvesting technique which can potentially supply 10-100's of [mu]W of available power. One of the main limitations of existing piezoelectric ... -
An efficient piezoelectric energy-harvesting interface circuit using a Bias-Flip rectifier and shared inductor
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-05)Energy harvesting is an emerging technology with applications to handheld, portable and implantable electronics. Harvesting ambient vibration energy through piezoelectric (PE) means is a popular energy harvesting technique ... -
Efficient Planning for Near-Optimal Compliant Manipulation Leveraging Environmental Contact
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018-09)Path planning classically focuses on avoiding environmental contact. However, some assembly tasks permit contact through compliance, and such contact may allow for more efficient and reliable solutions under action ... -
Efficient Planning in Non-Gaussian Belief Spaces and Its Application to Robot Grasping
(Springer International Publishing, 2016-08-26)© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2017. The limited nature of robot sensors make many important robotics problems partially observable. These problems may require the system to perform complex information-gathering ... -
Efficient Planning under Uncertainty with Macro-actions
(AI Access Foundation, 2011-02)Deciding how to act in partially observable environments remains an active area of research. Identifying good sequences of decisions is particularly challenging when good control performance requires planning multiple ... -
Efficient plasmonic emission by the quantum Čerenkov effect from hot carriers in graphene
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-06)Graphene plasmons have been found to be an exciting plasmonic platform, thanks to their high field confinement and low phase velocity, motivating contemporary research to revisit established concepts in light–matter ... -
Efficient polyhedral enclosures for the reachable set of nonlinear control systems
(Springer London, 2016-02)This work presents a general theory for the construction of a polyhedral outer approximation of the reachable set (“polyhedral bounds”) of a dynamic system subject to time-varying inputs and uncertain initial conditions. ... -
Efficient Post-Quantum TLS Handshakes using Identity-Based Key Exchange from Lattices
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-07)Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) is considered an alternative to traditional certificate-based public key cryptography to reduce communication overheads in wireless sensor networks. In this work, we build on the well-known ... -
An Efficient Precoding Algorithm for mmWave Massive MIMO Systems
