Planar Helical Antenna of Circular Polarization by Chen, Zhuozhu, Shen, Zhongxiang

“…The designed antenna operates at the center frequency of 10 GHz. Simulated results show that the planar helical antenna achieves wide-impedance bandwidth (|S11| <; -10 dB) from 7.4 to 12.8 GHz (54%) and 3-dB AR bandwidth from 8.2 to 11.6 GHz (34%), while retaining a thickness of only 0.11λ0 at the center frequency. …”

Bombyx and Bugs in Meiji Japan: Toward a Multispecies History? by Onaga, Lisa A.

“…In the lively, experimental spirit of multispecies research, I explore how a broader view of the domesticated silkworm species, which includes the “bugs” that afflicted it, forces us to reenvision familiar histories of sericulture that centered upon the means and end of “silk making.” In this case, a “multispecies” history draws our attention to the materiality of the biotic world that humans and nonhumans cohabit in order to produce a more holistic view of what “make silk.” …”

The Brazilian disc test for rock mechanics applications : review and new insights by Li, Diyuan, Wong, Louis Ngai Yuen

“…The maximum tensile stress and the maximum tensile strain are both found to occur about 5 mm away from the two loading points along the compressed diameter of the disc, instead of at the center of the disc surface. Therefore, the crack initiation point of the Brazilian test for rocks may be located near the loading point when the tensile strain meets the maximum extension strain criterion, but at the surface center when the tensile stress meets the maximum tensile strength criterion.…”

Vibrational characteristics of shape memory alloy-embedded 3D woven composite plate by Baitab, Danish Mahmood, Majid, Dayang Laila, Abdullah, Ermira Junita, Hamid, Mohd Faisal Abdul

“…Results: SMA wire imparts a significant effect on dynamic properties as SMA at the center has given higher bending mode frequencies upon activation while the torsional mode frequencies are more affected when the SMA wire is embedded off-center. …”
