Developing Designer Identity Through Reflection
can address every future situation effectively, so designers must be prepared to appreciate design situations subtly and with discipline, invent and re-invent processes, and take personal responsibility for the effects of their designs rather than handing off responsibility for quality outcomes to a single process or theory (Nelson & Stolterman, 2003). Designers act as human instruments, analog...
متن کاملDesigner disordered materials with large, complete photonic band gaps.
We present designs of 2D, isotropic, disordered, photonic materials of arbitrary size with complete band gaps blocking all directions and polarizations. The designs with the largest band gaps are obtained by a constrained optimization method that starts from a hyperuniform disordered point pattern, an array of points whose number variance within a spherical sampling window grows more slowly tha...
متن کاملExperiences Developing an E-Whiteboard-Based Circuit Designer
E-whiteboards large image display surfaces (LIDS) that support data input with pen-based sketching have become more readily available in recent times. We describe a prototype environment making use of this new user interface technology aimed at the teaching of digital circuit design and behaviour. In this paper we focus on some of the key user interface design and implementation challenges we f...
متن کاملJournal club. A theoretical physicist examines exotic particles lurking in new materials.
such a device might work to hide an object outside its confines. In their theoretical scheme, the custommade shield creates an ‘anti-object’ image that cancels out the light-scattering of the hidden object nearby, so that in optical terms the whole system is replaced by empty space. The researchers provide a prescription for making anti-objects of arbitrary shape embedded in slabs of metamateri...
متن کاملMaterials for Optical Cryocoolers
Vibration free cooling of detectors to cryogenic temperatures is critical for many terrestrial, airborne, and space based instruments. Cooling of solids by anti Stokes fluorescence is an emerging refrigeration technology that is inherently vibration free and compact, and enables cooling of small loads to cryogenic temperatures. In this Highlight, advances in laser cooling of solids are discusse...
