Reconstructing a scene from many images has been an important problem in computer vision. Typically, 2D image feature points are detected, matched, and triangulated to …
Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) has become the gold standard for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD) since Gould et al. [11] claimed so whilst the most …
The cluster expansion formalism for alloys is used to investigate phenomena in several refractory alloys: Co3W (superalloy), NbTiVZr, HfNbTaTiZr, and AlHfNbTaTiZr (high entropy alloys). Density …
The focus of this thesis is to propose an automation solution for our group’s further experiment requirements on SSBM-composite. The design of the flexible robotic …
When solids are subjected to high strain rates, deformation and mechanical energy tend to localize through a variety of mechanisms, including adiabatic shear banding (ASB). …
The surface morphologies of different soft material systems comprise various ruga phases (wrinkle, crease, fold or ridge). In the past a few decades, despite that …
Wireless networks of implantable microscale devices are being explored as a means of recording and stimulation of neural activity for various therapeutic applications. Beyond the …
Intracortical braincomputer interfaces (iBCIs) that record from microelectrode arrays (MEAs) provide high spatial and temporal resolution access to human cortical activity. Current iBCIs for human …
Stroke is one of the most common causes of adult disability, resulting in both physical and cognitive impairments. Physical impairments caused by stroke include the …
Structured light scanners reconstruct 3D information about a scene by projecting a known pattern of light, such as a laser line or time-multiplexed gray code, …
Microphone arrays have been used in environments that require remote speech acquisition - cars, desk recording systems, teleconferencing and judicial proceedings to name a few. …
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer with application as the material for pipeline transport systems. Due to the longterm, low-stress conditions of …
We discover a new, curvature-localizing, subcritical buckling mode that produces a shallow-kink configuration in multi-layer graphene. Our density functional theory (DFT) analysis reveals the mode …
Phase transforming electrode materials are among the most promising candidates for the next generation of high energy capacity lithium ion batteries. Phase transformation in electrodes …
Mechanical integrity of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays an important role in determining the long-term reliability and performance of advanced high capacity anode materials. Failure …
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the single leading cause of death in the world and restorative treatment for IHD poses a global healthcare challenge. Myocardial …
Predicting crack patterns and toughness of structural biomaterials (SBs) is a complex problem due to their complicated microstructures. Most SBs are heterogeneous in nature and …
