Rewriting history: the information age and the knowable past by Tredinnick, Luke

“…History seems to slip away in the precession of simulacra accompanying mass media and digital computing: ever-present if inauthentic versions of the past overwhelm any sense of historical continuity. Arguably we live in an era of timeless time, or time without chronology in which the very patterns of our daily lives are disrupted. …”

Metamaterial based ultra-wideband antennas for portable wireless applications by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Naser-Moghadasi, Mohammad, Sadeghzadeh, Ramazan Ali, Virdee, Bal Singh, Limiti, Ernesto

“…Various approaches have been reported to reduce the physical size of RF antennas including using high permittivity substrates, shorting pins, reactive components, and more recently, metamaterials (MTM) based on composite right-/left-handed transmission-lines (CRLH-TLs). MTM exhibit unique electromagnetic response that cannot be found in the nature. …”

Mathematical and computational modelling for the design of pipe bends and compliant systems by Bishop, Steven Richard

“…In particular predictions are sought of any incipient jumps to resonance of the systems which might lead to potentially dangerous loads in the mooring lines or excessive displacements. Throughout the dynamics work stable steady state paths are closely followed and monitored so that any resulting bifurcation, including the possibility of chaotic behaviour, can be analysed with a view to its subsequent prediction.…”

Wideband microstrip quasi-elliptic function bandpass filter with high out-of-band rejection by Virdee, Bal Singh, Riaz, Muhammad, Shukla, Pancham, Onadim, Muhittin, Ouazzane, Karim

“…The design comprises stub-loaded halfwavelength resonators that are electromagnetically coupled to resonant structures that are interdigitally coupled to the input and output feed-lines. Perturbation introduced by the presence of the stub causes the resonators to act as a multimode device. …”

Periodic array of complementary artificial magnetic conductor metamaterials-based multiband antennas for broadband wireless transceivers by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Naser-Moghadasi, Mohammad, Sadeghzadeh, Ramazan Ali, Virdee, Bal Singh, Limiti, Ernesto

“…This study presents the empirical results of a low-profile light-weight antenna based on a periodic array of the complementary artificial magnetic conductor metamaterial structure, which is realised by loading the antenna with E-shaped slits and inductive microstrip lines grounded using metallic via-holes. The finalised prototype antenna operates over a broadband of 0.41–4.1 GHz, which corresponds to a fractional bandwidth of 165.84%, and has dimensions of 40mm × 35mm × 1.6mm or 0.054λo × 0.047λo × 0.0021λo, where λo is free-space wavelength at operating frequency of 410 MHz. …”
