Large-scale seismic signal analysis with Hadoop
In seismology, waveform cross correlation has been used for years to produce high-precision hypocenter locations and for sensitive detectors. Because correlated seismograms generally are found only at small hypocenter separation distances, correlation detectors have historically been reserved for spotlight purposes. However, many regions have been found to produce large numbers of correlated se...
متن کاملTransformable topological mechanical metamaterials
Mechanical metamaterials are engineered materials whose structures give them novel mechanical properties, including negative Poisson's ratios, negative compressibilities and phononic bandgaps. Of particular interest are systems near the point of mechanical instability, which recently have been shown to distribute force and motion in robust ways determined by a nontrivial topological state. Here...
متن کاملProgrammable mechanical metamaterials.
We create mechanical metamaterials whose response to uniaxial compression can be programmed by lateral confinement, allowing monotonic, nonmonotonic, and hysteretic behavior. These functionalities arise from a broken rotational symmetry which causes highly nonlinear coupling of deformations along the two primary axes of these metamaterials. We introduce a soft mechanism model which captures the...
متن کاملHierarchical Auxetic Mechanical Metamaterials
Auxetic mechanical metamaterials are engineered systems that exhibit the unusual macroscopic property of a negative Poisson's ratio due to sub-unit structure rather than chemical composition. Although their unique behaviour makes them superior to conventional materials in many practical applications, they are limited in availability. Here, we propose a new class of hierarchical auxetics based o...
متن کاملLarge-volume conventional magnetic shields
2014 Increasing demand for low-field regions of large volumes has resulted in the construction of many magnetically-shielded walk-in rooms. Most have been of the cubic, two-layer high-03BC type, but several have used three layers, including one built by this author about three years ago. This room used several innovations, including "shaking" to increase the permeability of the magnetic sheets....
