Turbulent boundary layer control (TBLC) for skin-friction drag reduction is a relatively new
technology made possible through the advances in computational-simulation capabilities …

The use of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), an ultra flexible polymer, as a substrate for the
realization of reconfigurable microwave devices in the 60-GHz band is presented. As bulk …

The effects of discontinuity in the elasticity and dam** on the dynamics of a non-smooth
electromechanical system are numerically and experimentally studied in this paper. The …

I. Introduction he current trend in the design of missiles, UCAVs and combat aircraft is to
reduce observability, size and mass and to increase range. Hence the intake integration is …

Flow control consists in modifying a flow natural state in order to converge towards another
state which is considered as favorable, as drag or noise radiation might be reduced. In this …

Co–Fe films are grown onto plane pre-treated Cu foils; the effects of the alloy composition on
the morphology and the crystal texture of the electrodeposited films and their anisotropic …

The present work presents the design and the characterisation of a swee** jet, a fluidic
actuator that has been shown to be able to enhance the aerodynamic performance of flow …

Multiple attractors and their fractal basins of attraction can lead to the loss of global stability
and integrity of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS). In this paper, multistability of a …

This paper deals with the theoretical and experimental study of an electromechanical system
with discontinuity excited by non-sinusoidal periodic voltage (EMSDENPV). After the …

This paper presents and discusses the development of a normally-off magneto-mechanical
airflow microvalve designed for active aerodynamic flow control application. The architecture …
