Detection of Floating Grains in DC Aluminum Casting
Free-moving "floating" grains have been linked to macrosegregation in direct-chill (DC) aluminum castings. The presence of these grains in the sump of a solidifying ingot has been acknowledged based on measurements of cast microstructures and by recent work using a turbulent jet to suspend …

Charging of aggregate grains in astrophysical environments.
… charged due to the constant collisions with free moving electrons and ions. Cosmic dust can also be charged by other means such as UV and X-ray radiation, and secondary electron emission due to the impact of energetic electrons and ions. The presence of charged dust particles alters the …

On the feasibility of integrated optical waveguide-based in situ monitoring of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)
… as sensors and actuators. Because these free moving structures are fabricated using processes similar to microfabrication, MEMS devices and traditional electronics can be integrated on the same substrate. This merging of the technologies will allow the miniaturization of large scale …

Development of a microfabricated turbine-driven air bearing rig
… of a process methodology for fabrication of freely-rotating high aspect ratio devices, but it is also a vehicle for research into micro-fabricated gas bearings and rotordynamics. The process flow involves the use of 16 masks, 9 aligned deep reactive ion etching (ORIE) steps, aligned fusion …

Population Codes and Their Correlates In Decision Making
… outcomes to plan ahead, when allowed to forage freely in an interactive environment. In uncertain environments, the prediction of outcome requires access to a model of the reward structure. We recorded the activity of a population of individual neurons in dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) …
