THE LATE NEWSPAPER PUFF.

Puff, The Magic Protocol

Traditional models of concurrency resort to peculiarly indirect means to express interaction and study its properties. Formalisms such as process algebras/calculi, concurrent objects, actors, agents, shared memory, message passing, etc., all are primarily action-based models that provide constructs for the direct specification of things that interact, rather than a direct specification of inter...

Puff, puff, play: a sip-and-puff remote control for music playback

We introduce the Peripipe, a tangible remote control for a music player in the shape of a wooden tobacco pipe. The interaction is based on breath control, using sips and pu↵s as control commands. An atmospheric pressure sensor in the Peripipe senses changes in the air pressure. Based on these changes, the pipe determines when the user performs a pu↵, double-pu↵, sip, double-sip or a long pu↵ or...

The 68C glue puff of Drosophila.

The flow structure of a puff.

From time-resolved stereoscopic particle image velocimetry measurements over the entire circular cross section of a pipe, a first-of-its-kind quasi-instantaneous three-dimensional velocity field of a turbulent puff at a low Reynolds number is reconstructed. At the trailing edge of the puff, where the laminar flow undergoes transition to turbulence, pairs of counterrotating streamwise vortices a...
