Designing biomimetic antifouling surfaces.
Marine biofouling is the accumulation of biological material on underwater surfaces, which has plagued both commercial and naval fleets. Biomimetic approaches may well provide new insights into designing and developing alternative, non-toxic, surface-active antifouling (AF) technologies. In the marine environment, all submerged surfaces are affected by the attachment of fouling organisms, such ...
متن کاملAnalysis and Engineering of Silicone Actuators as Artificial Muscles for use in Biomimetic Underwater Robots
The use of silicone as an actuator that could serve as an artificial muscle to power underwater vehicles was analyzed. Muscles have attributes that are highly desirable for use in biomimetic underwater robots mimicking fish. They allow a more elegant design, optimized to move in the best way to produce thrust. Current artificial muscles are often inefficient, either in terms of power or in the ...
متن کاملMicromachined biomimetic artificial haircell sensors.
The biological haircell is a modular building block of a rich variety of biological sensors. Using micro- and nanofabrication technology, an engineering equivalent artificial haircell sensor can be developed, imitating the structure and transfer function of the biological haircell. The artificial haircells can be made of hybrid semiconductor, metal and polymers. This paper discusses a number of...
متن کاملdesigning a fast locking pll
a phase-locked loop (pll) based frequency synthesizer is an important circuit that is used in many applications, especially in communication systems such as ethernet receivers, disk drive read/write channels, digital mobile receivers, high-speed memory interfaces, system clock recovery and wireless communication system. other than requiring good signal purity such as low phase noise and low spu...
Linear artificial molecular muscles.
Two switchable, palindromically constituted bistable [3]rotaxanes have been designed and synthesized with a pair of mechanically mobile rings encircling a single dumbbell. These designs are reminiscent of a "molecular muscle" for the purposes of amplifying and harnessing molecular mechanical motions. The location of the two cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) (CBPQT(4+)) rings can be controlled to b...
