Examples of topologically unknotted tori by Juhasz, A, Powell, M

“…It is unclear whether these tori are smoothly unknotted, except for tori with four critical points whose middle level set is a split link. The double cover of S^4 branched along any of these surfaces is a potentially exotic copy of S^2 x S^2, and, in the case of turned twisted tori, we show they cannot be distinguished from S^2 x S^2 using Seiberg-Witten invariants.…”

Conformable ultrasound breast patch for deep tissue scanning and imaging by Du, Wenya, Zhang, Lin, Suh, Emma, Lin, Dabin, Marcus, Colin, Ozkan, Lara, Ahuja, Avani, Fernandez, Sara, Shuvo, Ikra Iftekhar, Sadat, David, Liu, Weiguo, Li, Fei, Chandrakasan, Anantha P., Ozmen, Tolga, Dagdeviren, Canan

“…The in vitro studies and clinical trials reveal that the array using a piezoelectric crystal [Yb/Bi-Pb(In <jats:sub>1</jats:sub> <jats:sub>/2</jats:sub> Nb <jats:sub>1/2</jats:sub> )O <jats:sub>3</jats:sub> -Pb(Mg <jats:sub>1/</jats:sub> <jats:sub>3</jats:sub> Nb <jats:sub>2/3</jats:sub> )O <jats:sub>3</jats:sub> -PbTiO <jats:sub>3</jats:sub> ] (Yb/Bi-PIN-PMN-PT) exhibits a sufficient contrast resolution (~3 dB) and axial/lateral resolutions of 0.25/1.0 mm at 30 mm depth, allowing the observation of small cysts (~0.3 cm) in the breast. …”

Piezoelectric single crystal based one-dimensional phased array for breast tissue imaging by Du, Wenya

“…In this thesis, I propose a conformable ultrasound breast patch (cUSBr-Patch) consisting of a one-dimensional (1D) phased array and a nature-inspired patch design, which offers large-area, deep tissue scanning and multi-angle, repeatable breast imaging while avoiding the drawbacks of conventional ultrasound imaging technologies. I used a Yb/Bi-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystal as the active element due to its superior piezoelectric properties (d33 = 2,800 pC/N, εr = 7,000, k33 = 0.93). …”

What Dicey forgot by Barber, NW

“…This chapter argues that the imperial critique of Dicey is correct, but that the remedy can be found in Dicey’s own work, in his discussion of sovereignty and in the hints he dropped about the social basis of the rule of law. In each case, a link is drawn between the community and the law that regulates it, a link that renders the rule of law morally defensible and efficacious. …”
