Sensors and Actuators A: Physical. 134:201-212
Factors affecting the efficiency of liquid–vapor phase-change actuators during dynamic operation are explored. To do this, a model actuator was specifically designed so that actuator geometry, material properties and operation could be easily varie

In this communication, we present the numerical analysis of nonlinear vibrations of a pre-stressed, laminated, thin, square plate. The laminate is modeled as an isotropic nonlinear plate with effective elastic properties and the model is validated ex

The behavior of thin-film piezoelectric membranes at high deflections and strains for use as generators is examined. Experiments are conducted with a bulge tester to obtain pressure-deflection relationships, residual stresses, and electrical output c

Surface roughness, grain size and chemistry of Pt/Ti bottom electrodes have been investigated for their contribution to interfacial adhesion with PbZr 0.52 Ti 0.48 O 3 (PZT) thin films used in a microelectromechanical systems power-generating applica

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films between 1 and 3 μm thick were grown using solution deposition techniques to study the effects of crystal structure and orientation on the direct piezoelectric output of these films on platinized Si membranes. By v

We have examined the effect of arachidonic acid on the transient increases in intracellular Ca2+ evoked by NMDA and AMPA in cultured hippocampal pyramidal cells loaded with Fura-2 AM. Repeated brief pulses of NMDA elicited Ca2+ transients that showed

Mouse oncostatin M (mOSM) has been recently cloned; however, its full spectrum of biologic functions has not been defined. To assess its potential role in inflammation, we have tested the activity of mOSM in vitro in regulation of fibroblasts and hep

RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted) is a member of the C-C superfamily of chemokines and is reported to function as a potent chemoattractant for monocytes, eosinophils, and a subpopulation of CD4+ T cells. Using a r
