Finding function and form.
The ability to recreate Nature's molecules through chemical synthesis is undoubtedly one of the greatest triumphs of the human imagination. To date, thousands of natural products have been synthesized and targets that looked like an impossible task only recently, such as a single glycoform of erythropoietin, have been reached. An achievement that would have astonished researchers several decade...
متن کاملAlgebraic tensegrity form-finding
This paper concerns the form-finding problem for general and symmetric tensegrity structures with shape constraints. A number of different geometries are treated and several fundamental properties of tensegrity structures are identified that simplify the form-finding problem. The concept of a tensegrity invariance (similarity) transformation is defined and it is shown that tensegrity equilibriu...
متن کاملForm-Finding Model Shows How Cytoskeleton Network Stiffness Is Realized
In eukaryotic cells the actin-cytoskeletal network provides stiffness and the driving force that contributes to changes in cell shape and cell motility, but the elastic behavior of this network is not well understood. In this paper a two dimensional form-finding model is proposed to investigate the elasticity of the actin filament network. Utilizing an initially random array of actin filaments ...
متن کاملBio-Inspired Miniature Direction Finding Acoustic Sensor
A narrowband MEMS direction finding sensor has been developed based on the mechanically coupled ears of the Ormia Ochracea fly. The sensor consists of two wings coupled at the middle and attached to a substrate using two legs. The sensor operates at its bending resonance frequency and has cosine directional characteristics similar to that of a pressure gradient microphone. Thus, the directional...
متن کاملDirac ’ s inspired point form and hadron form factors
Noticing that the " point-form " approach referred to in many recent works implies physics described on hyperplanes, an approach inspired from Dirac's one, which involves a hyperboloid surface, is presented. A few features pertinent to this new approach are emphasized. Consequences as for the calculation of form factors are discussed.
