    • Characterizing the Switching Thresholds of Magnetophoretic Transistors. 

      Abedini-Nassab, R; Baker, C; Chilkoti, A; Garcia, JV; Joh, DY; Margolis, DM; Murdoch, DM; ... (11 authors) (Adv Mater, 2015-10-28)
      The switching thresholds of magnetophoretic transistors for sorting cells in microfluidic environments are characterized. The transistor operating conditions require short 20-30 mA pulses of electrical current. By demonstrating ...

    • Enhancing imaging systems using transformation optics. 

      Kundtz, NB; Landy, Nathan I; Smith, David R; Urzhumov, Yaroslav A (Opt Express, 2010-09-27)
      We apply the transformation optical technique to modify or improve conventional refractive and gradient index optical imaging devices. In particular, when it is known that a detector will terminate the paths of rays over ...

    • Springback Analysis for Rod Bending in Spinal Fusion Surgery Applications 

      Wallace, Terence (2010)
      Spinal fusion is quickly becoming a common surgical operation in today's medical field. A major component of spinal fusion surgery is the use of metal rods. These rods, which are made of titanium or stainless steel, must ...

    • The Ductile to Brittle Transition in Polycarbonate 

      Pogacnik, Justin (2011)
      An advanced bulk constitutive model is used with a new cohesive zone model that is stress state and rate-dependent in order to simulate the ductile to brittle failure transition in polycarbonate. The cohesive zone model ...
