Abstract: Plastic pipes [e.g., polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or high density polyethylene (HDPE)] are commonly used to replace aging metallic pipe sections (e.g., cast iron) in water-distribution networks. However, our understanding ...

Abstract: Deployable origamibased arrays can offer many benefits for a wide variety of engineering applications. However, alignment in the deployed state is a primary challenge of these arrays; in optical systems, local (single ...
