Ultra-High Speed Spinning of Poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate)(PEN).

Wear of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene

Ultra high-speed sorting.

BACKGROUND Cell sorting has a history dating back approximately 40 years. The main limitation has been that, although flow cytometry is a science, cell sorting has been an art during most of this time. Recent advances in assisting technologies have helped to decrease the amount of expertise necessary to perform sorting. METHODS Droplet-based sorting is based on a controlled disturbance of a j...

OA-26 Designing Active High Speed Filters

Filters built from resistors (R), inductors (L) and capacitors (C) are known as RLC or passive filters and are the dominant type of filter for high frequency applications. The performance of these filters is typically limited by the inductors which are large, expensive and far from ideal in an electrical sense. By using amplifiers and feedback, the same filter characteristics can be achieved wi...

Properties of crosslinked ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene.

Substantially reducing the rate of generation of wear particles at the surfaces of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) orthopedic implant bearing components, in vivo, is widely regarded as one of the most formidable challenges in modern arthroplasty. In the light of this, much research attention has been paid to the myriad of endogenous and exogenous factors that have been postula...

Ultra-High-Speed Reed-Solomon turbo decoder

—This article presents an FPGA implementation of an ultra-high-speed Reed-Solomon (RS) turbo decoder. A performance analysis is performed showing that RS Block Turbo Codes (RS-BTC) have decoding performance equivalent to Bose Ray-Chaudhuri Hocquenghem-Block Turbo Codes (BCH-BTC). A ratio between the decoder throughput and the decoder area is used to show the higher ef ciency of the RS full para...
