The Shear TEsting Programme (STEP) is a collaborative project to improve the accuracy and reliability of weak lensing measurement, in preparation for the next generation of wide-field surveys. We review sixteen current and emerging shear…
Transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) is a material characterization technique based on laser-induced thermoelastic excitation of thermal and acoustic gratings. On opaque samples, these gratings are dynamic surface displacements that reflect…
The accurate measurement of complex liquid permittivity in a frequency range provides important information on liquid properties in comparison to single frequency permittivity investigations. The multifrequency microwave characterization…
We review the tools and procedures for the analysis of the data collected by X-ray photoelectric gas polarimeters, like the ones on-board the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). Although many of such tools are in principle common…
Plasmonic detectors have the potential to provide a method of rapid spectroscopy without the need of moving mirrors or gratings. Previous measurements have demonstrated frequency tunable detection based on plasmonic excitations, however…
Established techniques for characterizing a layer on a substrate system via surface acoustic wave (SAW) dispersion measurement are often slow due to the need for scanning excitation or detection positions. We present a method for…
The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method has been increasingly used to study fluid problems in recent years; but its computational cost can be high if high resolution is required. In this study, an adaptive resolution method based…
We present a new method to measure rheological response of liquids confined to nano-scale which exhibit a considerable slow-down in dynamics compared to bulk liquids. The method relies on using a robust force sensor that has a sensitivity…
Shear viscosity of the classical $\Phi^4$ theory is measured using classical microcanonical simulation. To calculate the Kubo formula, we measure the energy-momentum tensor correlation function, and apply the Green-Kubo relation. Being a…
Piezo-driven rotator is convenient for tilted magnetic field experiments due to its precise angle control. However, the rotator itself and the sample mounted on it are difficult to be cooled down because of extra heat leaks and presumably…
Automatic prostate segmentation is an important step in computer-aided diagnosis of prostate cancer and treatment planning. Existing methods of prostate segmentation are based on deep learning models which have a large size and lack of…
Starting from the general modal solutions for a homogeneous layer of arbitrary material and crystalline symmetry, a matrix formalism is developed to establish the semi analytical expressions of the surface impedance matrices (SIM) for a…
Bulk piezoelectric micro-gyroscope is a miniaturized inertial sensor that uses a differential thickness-shear bulk mode of a PZT block as the drive mode of the gyroscope. In the paper, a second differential thickness-extensional mode is…
Multifunctional capability, flexible design, rugged lightweight construction, and self-powered operation are desired attributes for electronics that directly interface with the human body or with advanced robotic systems. For these and…
Seeking to improve and innovate the technology currently used in their research work, the Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico Plasma Laboratory designed and built a portable device able to generate a voltage sweep for an electrostatic…
We present an experimental study of the flow dynamics of a lamellar phase sheared in the Couette geometry. High-frequency ultrasonic pulses at 36 MHz are used to measure time-resolved velocity profiles. Oscillations of the viscosity occur…
Recent Couette-cell shear experiments of carbopol gels have revealed the formation of a transient shear band before reaching the steady state, which is characterized by homogeneous flow. This shear band is observed in the small-gap limit…
A non-contact scanning-probe-microscopy method was used to probe local near-surface dielectric susceptibility and dielectric relaxation in poly-vinyl-acetate (PVAc) near the glass transition. Dielectric spectra were measured from 10-4 Hz to…
Two-dimensional thin plates are widely used in many aerospace and automotive applications. Among many methods for the attenuation of vibration of these mechanical structures, piezoelectric shunt damping is a promising way. It enables a…
Granular solid hydrodynamics (GSH) is a continuum-mechanical theory for granular media, the range of which is shown in this paper. Simple, frequently analytic solutions are related to classic observations at different shear rates,…
