OPTICAL BISTABILITY IN ZINC-SULFIDE AND ZINC-SELENIDE THIN-FILM INTERFERENCE FILTERS AND IN GALLIUM-ARSENIDE AND COPPER-CHLORIDE ETALONS (NONLINEAR).
… in time and laser-induced "damage" indicate a thermal mechanism. The problem of water vapor absorption in such filters must be addressed before the inherent potential and advantages of these devices in two-dimensional image processing applications can be realized. Trans- verse effects in GaAs …

A Patient-specific Irreversible Electroporation Treatment Planning Model Based on Human Tissue Properties
… membranes, leading to cell death. Due to its non-thermal mechanism, IRE is particularly well suited for treating a tumor that is unresectable due to its close location to crucial structures such as blood vessels and nerves. Predicting the region of treatment is critical for optimal treatment of …

Non-Thermal Contribution to Ruthenium Photothermal Catalyst in Carbon Dioxide Methanation
… and the release of CO2 into the atmosphere. Photothermal catalysis offers a promising strategy for sustainable chemical transformations by combining thermal and photonic energy to accelerate reactions under mild conditions to convert greenhouses into energy sources. However, quantifying …

Investigations of the Effects of Flame Configuration on the Combustion of Laminar Diffusion Flame
… As for NO formation in DIDF, there are two mechanisms in present work: thermal mechanism and prompt mechanism. It is found that thermal NO and prompt NO forms at different positions in DIDF and thermal NO is dominated compared with prompt NO.

GAMMA-RAY IMAGING OBSERVATIONS OF THE CRAB AND CYGNUS REGIONS
… second component, possibly produced by some non-thermal mechanism, may be necessary to explain the observations. Finally, upper limits are also derived for the flux from Cygnus X-3.</p>

Flow Control on an Airfoil Under Reversed Flow Conditions Using Nanosecond Dielectric Barrier Discharge Actuators
… duration and achieve control authority via a thermal mechanism. Before active control testing could be undertaken, however, a full characterization of the baseline flow characteristics had to be performed. A NACA 0015 airfoil was immersed in reverse flow at Reynolds numbers in the range …

Tissue Engineered Scaffolds and Three Dimensional Tumor Constructs to Evaluate Pulsed Electric Field Treatments
… great and it leads to cell death. The particular mechanisms that drive this response are still not completely understood. Thus, further characterization of this behavior for cell death induced by pulsed electric fields (PEFs) will advance the understanding of these types of therapies and encourage …

Improvements in Pulse Parameter Selection for Electroporation-Based Therapies
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a non-thermal tissue ablation modality in which electrical pulses are used to generate targeted disruption of cellular membranes. Clinically, IRE is administered by inserting one or more needles within or around a region of interest, then applying a series of …
