Suspended micro-beams made from aligned carbon nanotubes and parylene deflect reversibly in an ac field and the deflection rate is three orders of magnitude greater than those for existing devices. The direction of beam deflection is determined by the area moment of inertia and the actuation mechanism involves rapid a…

Microtubules (MTs) are cytoskeletal protein polymers orchestrating a host of important cellular functions including, but not limited to, cell support, cell division, cell motility and cell transport. We construct a toy-model of the MT lattice composed of classical vector Ising spins (dipole moments) representing the t…

The lifetime of the transformers is largely affected by overheating of windings and then the insulation ages and it reduces its electrical insulating properties. Therefore, the proper placing of the relevant parts of the transformer can help to ensure more uniform distribution of temperature field and thus to increase…

The standard procedure for wavelength calibration of monochromators in the visible and near infrared wavelength range uses low-pressure gas discharge lamps with spectrally well-known emission lines as primary wavelength standard. The calibration of a monochromator in the wavelength range of 350 to 2500 nm usually take…
