Ameel, Timothy A | Microchannel fluid behavior using micropolar fluid theory | In this paper, we describe microchannel fluid behavior using a numerical model based on micropolar fluid theory and experimentally verify the model using micromachined channels. The micropolar fluid theory augments the laws of classical continuum mechanics by incorporating the effects of fluid ... | | 1998 |

Normann, Richard A.; Horch, Kenneth W.; Cha, Kichul | Mobility performance with a pixelized vision system | A visual prosthesis, based on electrical stimulation of the visual cortex, has been suggested as a means for partially restoring functional vision in the blind. The prosthesis would create a pixelized visual sense consisting of punctate spots of light (phosphenes). The present study investigated the... | Visual Prosthesis; Mobility; Phosphene Simulator | 1992 |
