Talagrand’s Inductive Method and Isoperimetric Inequalities Involving Random Sets
Talagrand’s isoperimetric inequality is extended to the case for which the distance from a random vector with independent components is measured not to a subset of a product space but…

Electroadhesive Robots – Wall Climbing Robots Enabled By a Novel, Robust, and Electrically Controllable Adhesion Technology
This paper describes a novel clamping technology called compliant electroadhesion, as well as the first application of this technology to wall climbing robots. As the name implies, electroadhesion is an…

Accurate 3D Rigid-Body Target Motion and Structure Estimation by Using GMTI/HRR with Template Information
A framework of simultaneously estimating the motion and structure parameters of a 3D object by using high range resolution (HRR) and ground moving target indicator (GMTI) measurements with template information…

Thick Protective UHTC Coatings for SiC-Based Structures: Process Establishment
A new process to form thick and dense ultra-high-temperature ceramic (UHTC) composite coatings over SiC surfaces is described. Coatings of ZrB2/SiC/(ZrC) thicker than 100 μm are formed by a reaction-bonded…

Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Deep Gray Matter Brain Structures: Effects of Age and Iron Concentration
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the brain has become a mainstay in the study of normal aging of white matter, and only recently has attention turned to the use of DTI…

High-Index-Contrast AlGaAs Waveguide Scattering Loss Reduction Via Oxidation Smoothing of Sidewall Roughness
The propagation loss of single mode high index contrast AlGaAs ridge waveguides is reduced nearly three orders of magnitude through application of a nonselective wet oxidation sidewall roughness smoothing technique.

Modeling and Verification of Time-Triggered Communication Protocols
We present the basis of the modeling method and discuss two related verification approaches for analyzing complex, real-time distributed systems.

Origami embedding of piecewise-linear two-manifolds
Answering a question of Erik Demaine, we prove that the surface of any bounded polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space can be folded flat.
