352 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotoexcitations in disubstituted acetylene polymersWe have used a variety of optical techniques to study the photoexcitations dynamics in several disubstituted acetylene polymer thin films. We found that although these polymers have a degenerate ground state, as determined by iodine doping and C6Q photodoping, they show strong photoluminescence (PL)...Photoexcitations; Disubstituted acetylene polymers; Trans-Polyacetylene; Electron-electron interactions1997
353 Goller, FranzPhysiologically driven avian vocal synthesizerIn this work, we build an electronic syrinx, i.e., a programmable electronic device capable of integrating biomechanical model equations for the avian vocal organ in order to synthesize song. This vocal prosthesis is controlled by the bird's neural instructions to respiratory and the syringeal mot...2010-03
354 Miller, Jan D.Tar sand pretreatment with diluentImportant aspects of kerosene penetration into tar sand have been investigated.

356 Zhdanov, Michael S.Focusing geophysical inversion imagesA critical problem in inversion of geophysical data is developing a stable inverse problem solution that can simultaneously resolve complicated geological structures. The traditional way to obtain a stable solution is based on maximum smoothness criteria. This approach, however, provides smoothe...Focusing; Geophysical inversion images; Minimum gradient support functionals; MGS1999
357 Kasera, Sneha K.Secret key extraction using Bluetooth wireless signal strength measurementsBluetooth has found widespread adoption in phones, wireless headsets, stethoscopes, glucose monitors, and oximeters for communication of, at times, very critical information. However, the link keys and encryption keys in Bluetooth are ultimately generated from a short 4 digit PIN, which can be crack...2014-01-01
358 Macleod, Robert S.Sensitivity and specificity of substrate mapping: An in silico framework for the evaluation of electroanatomical substrate mapping strategiesBackground - Voltage mapping is an important tool for characterizing proarrhythmic electrophysiological substrate, yet it is subject to geometric factors that influence bipolar amplitudes and thus compromise performance. The aim of this study was to characterize the impact of catheter orientation on...2014-01-01

360 Nesdill, DaureenReproducible research and electronic notebooksReproducibility of research is an increasing concern as researchers move from print to a hybrid print/electronic to a totally electronic research project. In addition, research in many disciplines rely on large datasets, i.e. Big Data. Funding agencies have responded to this concern by addressing th...Electronic Lab Notebooks; Reproducible research; Data management; Collaboration; Best practices; Provenance; Audit trail; Metadata2016

362 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Ferrimagnetic resonance in films of vanadium [tetracyanoethanide]x, grown by chemical vapor depositionFerrimagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements in thin films of V[TCNE]x grown by chemical vapor deposition exhibit a series of sharp lines at 300 K. The orientational dependence of these lines is a result of the sample geometry provided the magnetization tracks the applied magnetic field. The FMR inten...Spin; Anisotropy; Magnetization2004
363 Armentrout, Peter B.Guided ion beam and theoretical studies of the reaction of Ag+ with CS2: gas-phase thermochemistry of AgS+ and AgCS+ and insight into spin-forbidden reactionsThe gas-phase reactivity of the atomic transition metal cation, Ag+, with CS2 is investigated using guided-ion beam mass spectrometry. Endothermic reactions forming AgS+ and AgCS+ are observed but are quite inefficient. This observation is largely attributed to the stability of the closed shell Ag+(...2010
364 Horch, Kenneth W.Selective activation of muscle groups in the feline hindlimb thorough electrical microstimulation of the ventral lumbo-sacral spinal cordSelective activation of muscle groups in the feline hindlimb by electrical stimulation of the ventral lumbo-sacral spinal cord was investigated. Spinal cord segments L5 to S1 were mapped using a penetrating tungsten needle electrode. Locations that produced isolated contraction of quadriceps, ti...Functional electrical stimulation; Motor pools; Spinal chord stimulation2000
365 Gur, YanivAssessment of white matter microstructure in stroke patients using NODDIDiffusion weighted imaging (DWI) is widely used to study changes in white matter following stroke.

368 Mathews, V. JohnHowling suppression in hearing aids using least-squares estimation and perceptually motivated gain controlABSTRACT Howling is a significant problem even in digital hearing aids equipped with adaptive feedback cancellation. Among the many causes of howling is the inability of the adaptive filter to track rapid changes in the feedback path. Many systems use howling detectors to detect the start of howlin...2006
