Glycocalyx acting as a mechanotransducer of fluid shear stress 

Yao, Yu, Ph. D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
It is widely recognized that fluid shearing forces acting on endothelial cells (ECs) have a profound effect on EC morphology, structure and function. Recent investigations in vivo have indicated the presence of a thick ...

Design of compliant mechanisms for attenuation of unidirectional vibrations in rotational systems 

Szczesny, Spencer E., 1981- (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The purpose of this research was to generate the knowledge required to design compliant mechanisms that (1) attenuate undesired small-motion angular vibrations in rotational power transmission systems and (2) preserve the ...

Ultrasonic wave propagation in thick, layered composites containing degraded interfaces 

Small, Peter D. (Peter David) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The ultrasonic wave propagation of thick, layered composites containing degraded bonds is investigated. A theoretical one-dimensional model of three attenuative viscoelastic layers containing two imperfect interfaces is ...

Estimation of nonlinear mechanical properties of atherosclerotic plaques 

Zhu, Ting F. (Ting Fredrick) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
A numerical method has been developed to estimate the mechanical properties of atherosclerotic plaques by combining genetic algorithm with finite element methods. Plaque images derived from optical coherence tomography ...

Decision support tool for the tanker second-hand market using data mining techniques 

Karaindros, Athanasios A. (Athanasios Andreas) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
This thesis proposes an innovative decision support tool intended for market leaders and those anticipating market states of "sale and purchase". This is feasible with the use of powerful data mining techniques and the ...

Performance analysis and algorithm enhancement of feature-aided-tracker (FAT) simulation software using 1-D high-range-resolution (HRR) radar signature profiles 

O'Brien, Michael J. (Michael James), 1981- (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The current Lincoln Laboratory (LL) MATLAB Feature-Aided-Tracker (FAT) software was adjusted and appended to provide a robust ground-target radar tracking simulation tool. It utilizes algorithms from the LL UAV Radar Moving ...

Constitutive modeling of the finite deformation behavior of membranes possessing a triangulated networked microstructure 

Arslan, Melis (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
Many biological, natural and synthetic materials possess a networked or micro-truss-like microstructure. In this thesis work, a general microstructurally-informed continuum level constitutive model of the large stretch ...

Active control of an automobile suspension system for reduction of vibration and noise 

Clements, Kristen Lynn (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
A new method for controlling road noise transmitted through the suspension system of an automobile was developed, using a Lincoln LS automobile as the target vehicle. In this vehicle, road surface roughness generates ...

A design tool architecture for the rapid evaluation of product design tradeoffs in an Inernet-based system modeling environment 

Wronski, Jacob (Jacob Andrzej) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
This thesis presents a computer-aided design tool for the rapid evaluation of design tradeoffs in an integrated product modeling environment. The goal of this work is to provide product development organizations with better ...

Manipulation of flexible structural modules by space robots during LSS construction 

Tzeranis, Dimitrios Spyridon (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
Future space structures are expected to have very large size. Such Large Space Structures (LSS) will be constructed in-orbit, probably by assembling large structural modules. This is a dangerous and difficult task for ...
