Abstract: Pyrometers are commonly used for high temperature measurement, but their accuracy is often limited by uncertainty in the surface emissivity. Radiation heating introduces additional errors due to ...

Abstract: Thermoelectric devices have many scaling benefits that motivate miniaturization, but assembly of small components is a significant challenge. Self-assembly provides a promising method for integrating ...

Abstract: This paper introduces the floating-opposing-arm (FOA) centrifugal clutch, presents a mathematical model for its analysis, and demonstrates the validity of a model to predict clutch performance ...
