Live Verification in an Interactive Proof Assistant by Gruetter, Samuel, Fukala, Viktor, Chlipala, Adam

“…We present a prototype for a tool that enables programmers to verify their code as they write it in real-time. After each line of code that the programmer writes, the tool tells the programmer whether it was able to prove absence of undefined behavior so far, and displays a concise representation of the symbolic state of the program right after the added line. …”

Relevancy rankings : pay for performance search engines in the hot seat by Goh, Dion Hoe-Lian, Ang, Rebecca P.

“…Pay for performance (PFP) search engines provide search services for documents on the Web but unlike “traditional” search engines, they rank documents not on content characteristics but according to the amount of money the owner of a Web site is willing to pay if a user visits the Web site through the search results pages. …”

Technological transmission of knowledge in Neolithic northwestern China: mineralogical and chemical analyses of Yangshao and Majiayao painted ware by Spataro, M, Hein, A

“…Sixteen sherds come from the early Yangshao-period Banpo site in the Wei River Valley, east of Xi’an, 17 from the eponymous site of Majiayao and five from Waguanzui in the upper Yellow River region in eastern Gansu province. …”

Control co-design of a large offshore wind farm considering the effect of wind extractability by Pahus, ML, Nishino, T, Kirby, A, Vogel, CR

“…We also introduce a 'gridded' turbine layout optimisation into the CCD, which allows us to quickly find optimal angles of the primary axes of a regular turbine array to maximise the annual energy production (AEP) of a given number of turbines at a given offshore farm site. The developed CCD method is used to demonstrate an important trade-off between the minimum number of turbines and minimum farm area required to achieve a certain AEP at the Seagreen offshore farm site as an example. …”

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). …”
