MAE 204. Engineering Mechanics I Statics. 3 Credits. Introduction to mechanical engineering problems and their solutions through the study of statics of particles and rigid bodies. Emphasis will be placed on the relationship of the static loads with the mechanical properties of the materials being considered. Introduction to the concepts of stress and strain and internal forces as applied to st...

We found that the motion aftereffect measured using a directionally ambiguous counterphase grating (flicker MAE) can be stronger when it is measured for the non-adapted eye than when measured for the adapted eye. The monocularly viewed adaptation stimulus was the movement of a missing-fundamental grating (2f+3f motion), for which the movement of the higher-order spatial structure was dominantly...

The performance of four methods for interpolation of body surface potential maps (BSPMs) for different electrode grid densities was assessed. This study is part of a research project on the influence of the variability of 12-lead electrocardiograms on computer interpretation due to small electrode position changes. Interpolated BSPMs can be used to simulate this variability. The set of BSPMs st...

PURPOSE Porcine retina is an excellent model for studying diverse retinal processes and diseases. The morphologies of porcine retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) have, however, not yet been described comprehensively. The aim of the present study was to créate a classification of the RGCs using the 1, 1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI) tracing method. METHODS Abou...

The cyto-architecture and morphology of the neuronal types of the dorsomedial cortex of the lizard, Hemidactylus flaviviridis has been studied with the help of Cresyl violet staining and Golgi impregnation method. The dorsomedial cerebral cortex displayed three neuronal layers. Layer-I contains only few neuronal somas and also the dendrites ascending from the subjacent layers. Layer-II is chara...

We show that values of the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE), which are about two orders of magnitude larger than the usual ones for transition metal cations in insulators (approximately 0.01-1 cm(-1)), can be found for the less common ion Fe+. In SrCl2:Fe+, the MAE is 93 cm(-1) when calculated using second-order perturbation multi-configurational calculations (CASPT2) while a similar value is f...

Large magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) is desirable and critical for nanoscale magnetic devices. Here, using ligand-field level diagrams and density functional calculations, we well explain the very recent discovery [I. G. Rau et al., Science 344, 988 (2014)] that an individual Co adatom on a MgO (001) surface has a large MAE of more than 60 meV. More importantly, we predict that a giant MAE up...

A horizontally moving vertical grating viewed through a diamond-shaped aperture can be made to appear to move either upwards or downwards by introduction of appropriate depth-ordering cues at the boundaries of the aperture (Duncan et al. 2000 Journal of Neuroscience 20 5885-5897). The grating is perceived to move towards (and sliding under) occluding 'near' surfaces, and parallel to 'far' surfa...

Large magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy (MAE) is a critical requirement for nanomagnets for applications in magnetic memory and storage devices. Due to small spin-orbit interaction the MAE of ferromagnetic films or single molecule magnets based on 3d metals is small and in typical magnetic nanostructures it is of the order of 2-3 meV. We show that MAE as high as 140 meV can be achieved by ap...

This paper introduces Team Alibabas systems participating IJCNLP 2017 shared task No. 2 Dimensional Sentiment Analysis for Chinese Phrases (DSAP). The systems mainly utilize a multi-layer neural networks, with multiple features input such as word embedding, part-of-speechtagging (POST), word clustering, prefix type, character embedding, cross sentiment input, and AdaBoost method for model train...
