Proceedings ArticleDOI
GaAs solar cells for Indoor Light Harvesting
TL;DR: In this paper, GaAs solar cells are compared to Dye Sensitised solar cells, traditionally used for indoor light harvesting, and a near linear relationship is measured between the open-circuit and maximum power voltages of GaAs cells at low light levels allowing their use with power conditioning circuits (MPPT) based on the fractional-voltage method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced vibrational energy harvester based on velocity amplification
TL;DR: In this paper, velocity amplification is employed in non-resonant structures to enhance the power harvested from ambient vibrations, and the final velocity is proportional to the number of masses and the mass ratios selected.
Proceedings Article
Dynamic controllability of temporally-flexible reactive programs
TL;DR: This paper considers three reactive programming language constructs whose behavior depends on runtime observations; conditional execution, iteration, and exception handling, and develops an algorithm which frames the dynamic controllability problem as an AND/OR search tree over possible program executions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Dynamics of Multiple Pair-Wise Collisions in a Chain for Designing Optimal Shock Amplifiers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the dynamics of velocity amplification through pairwise collisions between multiple masses in a chain, in order to develop useful machines for very high acceleration shock testing of MEMS devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Failure Mechanisms of Micro‐Scale Cantilevers Under Shock and Vibration Stimuli
TL;DR: In this article, micro-cantilevers were analyzed under vibration and shock on a modified Hopkinson pressure bar and vibration table to determine the mechanical properties of single crystal silicon (SCS).
