Rotation Inside Convex Kakeya Sets by Janzer, B

“…We also show that in three dimensions the answer is negative, even for the case when S is a line segment – but that in any dimension the first question has a positive answer when S is a line segment. …”

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). …”

Machine-Learning-Assisted Analysis of Visible Spectroscopy in Pulsed-Power-Driven Plasmas by Datta, Rishabh, Ahmed, Faez, Hare, Jack D.

“…Radiation transport simulations, which use spectral emissivity and opacity values generated using the collisional-radiative code PrismSPECT, are used to determine the spectral intensity generated by the plasma along the spectrometer’s line of sight (LOS). The spectra exhibit Al-II and Al-III lines, whose line ratios and line widths vary with the density and temperature of the plasma. …”

Explicit Two-Sided Unique-Neighbor Expanders by Hsieh, Jun-Ting, McKenzie, Theo, Mohanty, Sidhanth, Paredes, Pedro

“…Our constructions are obtained from instantiations of the tripartite line product of a large tripartite spectral expander and a sufficiently good constant-sized unique-neighbor expander, a new graph product we defined that generalizes the line product and the routed product of previous well-known works. …”

3D simulation-based research on the effect of interconnect structures on circuit reliability by He, Feifei, Tan, Cher Ming

“…The simulation of the EM reliability of the interconnects is usually performed using the line-via structure at the EM test temperature (e.g. 300 oC).However, such simulation using the line-via structure may not give the same void nucleation location as in the real circuit structure, especially at the circuit operation temperature (e.g. 90C). …”
