Force-deflection Behavior of a Smart Attachment Mechanism
Active Velcro is a unique form of distributed actuation that generates relative planar motion between two surfaces while maintaining a positive connection. The key distinguishing feature of this active surface is its ability to engage and retain the guest surface. This paper focuses on understanding the mechanism behind this ability. An analytical model that captures the quasi-static force-defl...
متن کاملPiled-Slab Searches
This paper deals with the conflict between simplicity and optimality in searching for a stationary target whose location is distributed in two dimensions, thus continuing an analysis that was begun in World War II. The search is assumed to be of the “piled-slab” type, where each slab consists of a uniform search of some simple region. The measure of simplicity is the number of regions (smaller ...
متن کاملAttachment relationships in Early Head Start families.
The remarkable papers in this Special Issue underscore the importance of applied research on families in poverty, the opportunities to developmental science of the Early Head Start National Research and Evaluation Project, and the mutual benefits from collaborations between research scientists and program practitioners. This commentary highlights the insights of these papers concerning the cons...
متن کاملThe Turbulent Wake of a Monopile Foundation
An experimental programme is presented, examining the turbulent wake of a monopile foundation in a current. Velocity was recorded across an extensive domain downstream of a model monopile in a 0.5 m deep basin, using an acoustic Doppler velocimeter array. The distribution of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) is examined across the entire domain. Tests were undertaken using several combinations of ...
متن کاملOsteopontin adsorption to Gram-positive cells reduces adhesion forces and attachment to surfaces under flow
The bovine milk protein osteopontin (OPN) may be an efficient means to prevent bacterial adhesion to dental tissues and control biofilm formation. This study sought to determine to what extent OPN impacts adhesion forces and surface attachment of different bacterial strains involved in dental caries or medical device-related infections. It further investigated if OPN's effect on adhesion is cau...
