Direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow at Re τ =110–650 is made in order to
assess the feedback control algorithms which have been proposed for reducing skin friction. …

Energy harvesting is a method by which energy naturally present in the environment is captured
and then converted into electricity for use in low‐power electronics. Among the various …

Thin-film electronics in its myriad forms has underpinned much of the technological innovation
in the fields of displays, sensors, and energy conversion over the past four decades. This …

In this paper, we propose a passive gap-spacing control method in order to avoid stiction
between top and bottom structures in in-plane sensor/actuator/generator applications. A …

11 C-Acetate can act as a probe of tissue metabolism through entry into catabolic or anabolic
metabolic pathways as mediated by acetyl–coenzyme A. The uptake of 11 C-acetate in …

Recently, micro power generation using electrets has attracted much attention due to its large
power output at a low frequency range. Since the theoretical power output is proportional …

The role of NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (NDH)‐dependent cyclic electron flow around photosystem
I in photosynthetic regulation and plant growth at several temperatures was examined …

Deposition of a metal on TiO 2 considerably accelerated photocatalytic reduction of carbon
dioxide to methane and/or acetic acid, and product distribution was dependent on the kind of …

The circadian clock controls physiological traits such as flowering time, photosynthesis, and
growth in plants under laboratory conditions. Under natural field conditions, however, little is …

We present the first micromachined rotational electret power generator, linearized theoretical
model of electret power generation, and novel method to produce uniformly charged …
