Output-based adaptive RANS solutions using higher-order FEM on a multi-element airfoil
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Higher-order methods in computational fluid dynamics have the potential to provide accurate solutions at lower computational costs than traditional methods. Obtaining accurate flow solutions requires the use of computational ...
There will be floods : a material remembrance of Presidents Island, Memphis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
In the wash of the Mississippi River just south of Memphis, Tennessee, lies President's Island, the largest island in the Mississippi. It is now no longer an island, as it was annexed in 1947 by a growing Memphis in search ...
Support vector machine gesture recognition for a wearable assistive robot for patients with hand osteoarthritis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
Osteoarthritis affects tens of millions of adults in the US alone. A frequent form of this disease is hand osteoarthritis, which affects certain joints of each hand, typically symmetrically. While there is currently no ...
Integrated visible-light liquid-crystal devices
