A novel approach to designing a guitar distortion effects pedal by Zheng, Luka

“…This was first done by overdriving the tube amplifier beyond its linear region, creating a harmonic distortion characteristic that is dominant in the 2nd harmonics, and changing to odd harmonic distortion as the output voltage swing is limited by the rail voltage. Guitar distortion pedals today seek to recreate the same sound effect of an overdriven tube amplifier with the use of nonlinear I-V characteristics of diodes. …”

Investigation on the braking characteristics of tractor-trailer on jackknifing by Gan, Zhilong

“…The results show that when the wheels remains in rolling motion, the brake input needs to be sufficient enough so as to inhibit the translational motion of the vehicle as well as work against the trailer swing motion or tractor spin-out. On the other hand, when the wheels are in sliding motion, the effective braking force exerted on the wheels is reduced and therefore increases the chance of jackknifing again. …”

A Highly Linear Ultra-Low-Area-and-Power CMOS Voltage-Controlled Oscillator for Autonomous Microsystems by Pacheco, Javier de Mena, Palacios, Tomas, Hempel, Marek, Vallejo, Marisa Lopez

“…It is designed to minimize leakage, limit high peak currents and provide an output whose frequency variation is linear with the input voltage, while allowing rail-to-rail input range swing. The oscillator occupies 592 μm2 , operates in a frequency range from 43 to 53 Hz and consumes a maximum average power of 210 pW at a supply voltage of 1 V and 4 pW at 0.3 V. …”

Design and 3D printing of reconfigurable structures by Teo, Ee Hian

“…The structure is made up of single modular units being repeatedly fixed together, this leads to the structure to isolate single modular units that are damaged, allowing it to be easily pin-pointed and replaced by fabricating another similar single unit, this cut cost as the structure can be salvaged by replacing a single unit instead of the whole structure.…”
