Hydrodynamic study of stereociliary tuft motion in hair cell organs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Research Laboratory of Electronics, 1987) -
Hydrodynamic superradiance in wave-mediated cooperative tunneling
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-12)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Superradiance occurs in quantum optics when the emission rate of photons from multiple atoms is enhanced by inter-atom interactions. When the distance between two atoms is comparable ... -
Hydrodynamics and critical slowing down
(2017-09)We introduce an effective theory which extends hydrodynamics into a regime where the critical slowing down would otherwise make hydrodynamics inapplicable. -
Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of shallow tidal channels and intertidal flats
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993) -
Hydrodynamics control shear-induced pattern formation in attractive suspensions
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019)© 2019 National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. Dilute suspensions of repulsive particles exhibit a Newtonian response to flow that can be accurately predicted by the particle volume fraction and the viscosity ... -
Hydrodynamics involving a free-surface body juncture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Hydrodynamics of a multiple tidal inlet system : Katama Bay, Martha's Vineyard, MA
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Observations, theoretical models, and a numerical model (ADCIRC) are used to investigate the effects of tides, waves, bay bathymetry, and changing inlet geometry on the hydrodynamics of the multiple-inlet Katama system, ... -
Hydrodynamics of aqueous humor outflow
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a leading cause of irreversible blindness resulting from elevated intraocular pressure caused by a pathologic increase in the resistance to aqueous humor outflow from the eye. Currently, ... -
Hydrodynamics of aqueous humour outflow
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Hydrodynamics of cell-cell mechanical signaling in the initial stages of aggregation
(American Physical Society, 2010-04)Mechanotactic cell motility has recently been shown to be a key player in the initial aggregation of crawling cells such as leukocytes and amoebae. The effects of mechanotactic signaling in the early aggregation of amoeboid ... -
Hydrodynamics of contained oil slicks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976) -
Hydrodynamics of flexible-body swimming motions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The performance and agility of fish swimming motions have intrigued both biologists and fluid mechanicians for many years. Both have endeavored to understand the mechanics of fish swimming and to resolve the paradoxical ... -
Hydrodynamics of flow through gels with applications to the eye
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983) -
The hydrodynamics of high diving
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-06)Diving consists of jumping into water from a platform, usually while performing acrobatics. During high diving competitions, the initial height reaches 27 m. From this height, the crossing of the water surface occurs at ... -
Hydrodynamics of high speed planing hulls with partially ventilated bottom and hydrofoils
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The influence of a cambered shaped bottom step on the performance of sea going V-stepped planing hulls is investigated using numerical methods. The shape of the step was designed to decrease the Drag/Lift ratio of the hull ... -
Hydrodynamics of jumping in archer fish, Toxotes microlepis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The maneuvering of fish is not only of interest to those wishing to better understand how fish function, but also is a great inspiration for designing underwater vehicles. This thesis provides the first characterization ... -
Hydrodynamics of magnet-coil actuated robotic fish
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)The hydrodynamics of two robotic fish were analyzed: a low cost toy robotic fish for developing live fish experimental techniques, HEXBUG(TM) Aquabot, and a low cost robotic fish for swarm robotics experiments, Scuba Fish. ... -
