Carbon Nanotube Actuators
Electromechanical actuators based on sheets of single-walled carbon nanotubes were shown to generate higher stresses than natural muscle and higher strains than high-modulus fer...

VIII. Stability of a viscous liquid contained between two rotating cylinders
In recent years much information has been accumulated about the flow of fluids past solid boundaries. All experiments so far carried out seem to indicate that in all cases stead...
College sophomores in the laboratory: Influences of a narrow data base on social psychology's view of human nature.
For the 2 decades prior to 1960, published research in social psychology was based on a wide variety of subjects and research sites. Content analyses show that since then such r...
The substantia nigra of the human brain
To achieve accuracy in studying the patterns of loss of midbrain dopamine-containing neurons in Parkinson's disease, we used compartmental patterns of calbindin D(28K) immunosta...
X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic chemical state quantification of mixed nickel metal, oxide and hydroxide systems
Abstract Quantitative chemical state X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis of mixed nickel metal, oxide, hydroxide and oxyhydroxide systems is challenging due to the comple...
The Effect of Cold-Work Distortion on X-Ray Patterns
With modern experimental technique, it is possible to measure a peak shape with sufficient accuracy to justify an interpretation based on the precise shape of the reflection. Th...
Interpretation of XPS Mn(2p) spectra of Mn oxyhydroxides and constraints on the mechanism of MnO<sub>2</sub>precipitation
Calculated Mn(2p3/2) X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) of Mn2+, Mn3+, and Mn4+ free ions are strikingly similar to Mn(2p3/2) spectra of Mn2+-, Mn3+-, and Mn4+-oxides and oxyhydr...
Calcium Supplementation and Increases in Bone Mineral Density in Children
In prepubertal children whose average dietary intake of calcium approximated the recommended dietary allowance, calcium supplementation increased the rate of increase in bone mi...
An application of normal mode theory to the retrieval of structural parameters and source mechanisms from seismic spectra
A cyclic process of refining models of the mechanical structure of the Earth and models of the mechanism of one or more earthquakes is developed. The theory of the elastic-gravi...
Compressed sensing and best 𝑘-term approximation
Compressed sensing is a new concept in signal processing where one seeks to minimize the number of measurements to be taken from signals while still retaining the information ne...
