What does the color coding in impedance field telemetry (IFT) heat maps in MAESTRO 10 indicate? These heat maps reveal essential data about how much current from one contact or channel reaches another. Here’s a quick rundown: • Lighter colors indicate higher current flow. • Darker colors represent lower current flow. A smooth transition from light to dark with increasing distance from the stimulated electrode suggests optimal electrode performance. Check out two illustrated IFT heat map examples below. 👇 Discover more about MED-EL’s IFT heat maps here: https://lnkd.in/d9RcX5nb #ElectrodeArray #CochlearImplant #Audiology #Audiologists

#Mastering_Heat_Transfer: A Fun Exploration of Core Concepts! 🚀😄 In this engaging video, we break down the three essential modes of heat transfer using simple yet effective visuals: #Convection: Watch as our character carries a book across the space, illustrating how heat moves through the motion of fluids. #Conduction: Notice how a group of characters passes the book hand-to-hand, representing the direct transfer of heat through solid materials. #Radiation: Observe the powerful throw of the book from one character to another, demonstrating how heat travels through electromagnetic waves. This creative approach not only simplifies complex concepts but also shows the vital role heat transfer plays in our daily lives and various industries.

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) brings out the tiniest details that are too cool to ignore! I mean, who needs regular size flowers when you’ve got atoms arranged like little works of art? 🌸👀 So, while everyone’s out frolicking in the leaves, we’ll be admiring electron diffraction patterns. Same vibe, right? 🍁⚛️ #TEM #QuTEM #MicroscopeMadness #Fall #Flower 

Nonlocal-Strain-Gradient-Based #Anisotropic Elastic Shell Model for Vibrational Analysis of Single-Walled #Carbon #Nanotubes by Matteo Strozzi, Isaac Elishakoff, Michele Bochicchio, Marco Cocconcelli, Riccardo Rubini and Enrico Radi C 2024, 10(1), 24; https://lnkd.in/dV7akthn Abstract In this study, a new anisotropic elastic shell model with a nonlocal strain gradient is developed to investigate the vibrations of simply supported single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The Sanders–Koiter shell theory is used to obtain strain–displacement relationships. Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity and Mindlin’s strain gradient theories are adopted to derive the constitutive equations, where the anisotropic elasticity constants are expressed via Chang’s molecular mechanics model. An analytical method is used to solve the equations of motion and to obtain the natural frequencies of SWCNTs. First, the anisotropic elastic shell model without size effects is validated through comparison with the results of molecular dynamics simulations reported in the literature. Then, the effects of the nonlocal and material parameters on the natural frequencies of SWCNTs with different geometries and wavenumbers are analyzed. From the numerical simulations, it is confirmed that the natural frequencies decrease as the nonlocal parameter increases, while they increase as the material parameter increases. As new results, the reduction in natural frequencies with increasing SWCNT radius and the increase in natural frequencies with increasing wavenumber are both amplified as the material parameter increases, while they are both attenuated as the nonlocal parameter increases.

[𝐕𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐥 & 𝐑𝐚𝐲𝐥𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐎𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬: 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐝] In my recent spare-time project, I applied the Runge-Kutta 4 method to solve the Rayleigh and Van der Pol oscillators. These nonlinear systems are well-known for their self-sustained oscillations, and both lead to limit cycles in phase space. For small damping values, the Van der Pol oscillator displays nearly circular, sinusoidal oscillations, while higher values bring out relaxation oscillations. The Rayleigh oscillator shares similar traits but with unique velocity-dependent damping. A productive way to stay engaged with computational methods!💻 #NonlinearSystems #NumericalComputation #DynamicSystems #VanderPolOscillator #RayleighOscillator

Light scattering refers to the phenomenon where light deviates from its straight path as it interacts with particles or structures in a medium. It can be elastic (no change in energy) or inelastic (energy change). Common examples include Rayleigh scattering, responsible for the blue color of the sky, and Mie scattering, relevant in the study of aerosols and particles. Applications range from understanding atmospheric processes to developing optical materials. #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking

Resonance occurs when an object vibrates at its natural frequency due to an external force. Imagine pushing someone on a swing. if you push at theet right moment (matching the swing's naturar frequency), the swing goes higher and higher. This is resonance in action. A resonance vibration test is used to find the natural frequencies at which an object vibrates. Engineers perform this test to ensure that products can withstand vibrations without getting damaged. Sine Sweep: The shaker vibrates the object through a range of frequencies,fromyow to highoThis isuct called a sine sweep. Observation: Engineers observe how the object responds to different frequencies. When the vibration matches the object's natural frequency, the object will vibrate more intensely. This is the resonant frequency. #ResonanceVibrationTest #StructuralEngineering #BuildingResilience #SafetyFirst #InnovationInAction #earthquake_since #seismology
