From Unilateralism to Bilateralism: Challenges for the Multilateral Trade System
(United Nations University Press, 2006) -
From Wrinkles to Creases in Elastomers: The Instability and Imperfection-Sensitivity of Wrinkling
(The Royal Society, 2012)The stability of the wrinkling mode experienced by a compressed half-space of neo-Hookean material is investigated using analytical and numerical methods to study the post-bifurcation behaviour of periodic solutions. It ... -
Frontier Stories: Periphery as Center in Qing History
(Koninklijke Brill NV, 2014)Since at least the 1960s, the importance of the tremendous territorial expansion under Qing rule to the modern history of China has been generally acknowledged. Indeed, one can say that the frontier story is one of the ... -
Frontiers in Complex Dynamics

The Frozen Face Effect: Why Static Photographs May Not Do You Justice
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2012)When a video of someone speaking is paused, the stationary image of the speaker typically appears less flattering than the video, which contained motion. We call this the frozen face effect (FFE). Here we report six ... -
Frugal fat or munificent muscle: genomic imprinting and metabolism
(BioMed Central, 2014)Variation in body composition is a popular obsession. The culturally ‘ideal’ body type is light on fat and heavy on muscle but the human population is collectively laying on fat. A new study finds antagonistic effects of ... -
Frustrated Quantum Ising Spins Simulated by Spinless Bosons in a Tilted Lattice: From a Quantum Liquid to Antiferromagnetic Order
(American Physical Society, 2012)We study spinless bosons in a decorated square lattice with a near-diagonal tilt. The resonant subspace of the tilted Mott insulator is described by an effective Hamiltonian of frustrated quantum Ising spins on a nonbipartite ... -
FTIR Study of Copper Agglomeration during Atomic Layer Deposition of Copper
(Materials Research Society, 2009)The growth of of metallic copper by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using copper(I) di-sec-butylacetamidinate \(([Cu(^sBu-amd)]_2)\) and molecular hydrogen \((H_2)\) on \(SiO_2/Si\) surfaces has been studied. The mechanisms ... -
Fueling Low‐Level AGN Activity through Stochastic Accretion of Cold Gas
(American Astronomical Society, 2006)Using a simple description of feedback from black hole growth, we develop an analytic model for the fueling of Seyferts (low-luminosity active galactic nuclei [AGNs]) and their relation to their host galaxies, Eddington ... -
Full counting statistics of time-of-flight images
(American Physical Society, 2017) -
A Full Year's Chandra Exposure on Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasars From the Chandra Multiwavelength Project
(IOP Publishing, 2008)We study the spectral energy distributions and evolution of a large sample of optically selected quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey that were observed in 323 Chandra images analyzed by the Chandra Multiwavelength ... -
A Full-Sky Hα Template for Microwave Foreground Prediction
(IOP Publishing, 2003)A full-sky Hα map with 6' (FWHM) resolution is presented. This map is a composite of the Virginia Tech Spectral line Survey (VTSS) in the north and the Southern H-Alpha Sky Survey Atlas (SHASSA) in the south. The Wisconsin ... -
A Full-Sky, High-Resolution Atlas of Galactic 12 μM Dust Emission With WISE
(IOP Publishing, 2013)We describe our custom processing of the entire Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) 12 μm imaging data set, and present a high-resolution, full-sky map of diffuse Galactic dust emission that is free of compact sources ... -
Full-Spectrum Photonic Pigments with Non-iridescent Structural Colors through Colloidal Assembly
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)Structurally colored materials could potentially replace dyes and pigments in many applications, but it is challenging to fabricate structural colors that mimic the appearance of absorbing pigments. We demonstrate the ... -
A Fully Automated High-Throughput Training System for Rodents
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Addressing the neural mechanisms underlying complex learned behaviors requires training animals in well-controlled tasks, an often time-consuming and labor-intensive process that can severely limit the feasibility of such ... -
A fully integrated battery-connected switched-capacitor 4:1 voltage regulator with 70% peak efficiency using bottom-plate charge recycling
(2016-02-24)This work presents a switched-capacitor (SC) DC-DC voltage regulator that converts a 3.7V battery voltage down to ~0.8V in order to power the `brain' SoC of a flapping-wing microrobotic bee. A cascade of two 2:1 SC converters ... -
Fully Stretchable Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cell Array
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-07-03)Intrinsically and fully stretchable active-matrix-driven displays are an important element to skin electronics that can be applied to many emerging fields, such as wearable electronics, consumer electronics and biomedical ... -
A fully-integrated 3-level DC/DC converter for nanosecond-scale DVS with fast shunt regulation
(IEEE, 2011)In recent years, chip multiprocessor architectures have emerged to scale performance while staying within tight power constraints. This trend motivates per core/block dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) with fast ... -
Fun with Higgsless theories
(American Physical Society (APS), 2005)Motivated by recent works on “Higgsless theories,” I discuss an SU(2) 0 × SU(2) N × U(1) gauge theory with arbitrary bifundamental (or custodia l SU(2) preserving) symmetry breaking between the gauge subgroups and with ...
