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). …”

THE BEAUTY OF FALLING : A Life in Pursuit of Gravity / by Rham, Claudia de 656071

“…The author will emphasize that General Relativity predicts its own downfall, and where the theory breaks down - at the particle level - is exactly where scientists are focusing in their search for new physics. The author brings the reader to a new gravitational frontier and, in doing so, introduces her own work - a theory of "massive gravity."…”

Experimental study on cache-performance optimization for graph storage by Foo, Wei Ling

“…This advantage is beneficial and applicable to graph traversal algorithms when closely related nodes are stored in a cache line. Hao Wei et al. [1] introduced a graph ordering algorithm, Gorder, a greedy procedure to reorder graph nodes in such a way that optimises their placement on a cache line. …”

Optimizing geometry of extruded PMMA microstructured optical fiber preforms by Sia, Johnathan Seng Hong

“…The experiment runs conducted achieve high R-squared value during multiple regression line analysis. This indicate that the optimize parameter of 170.859°C and extrusion speed of 0.3mm/min predicted using the regression line model, has a high probability in achieving a straight preform with 12 clear and distinct hole.…”
