He famously called his flat-roofed houses "machines for living in"; he was obsessed not with the organic forms that inspired Frank Lloyd Wright but with planes, sports cars, freeways and the efficient shapes of factories and warehouses.
The device has demonstrated an efficient on-chip shaping of photons enabled by nanomechanics driven at microwave frequencies.
However, in the past years, several technologies were developed and others were improved allowing efficient use and shaping of optical beams.
Tumoral and immunological markers predicted by systems biology methods are involved in the shaping of an efficient immune reaction and can serve as targets for novel therapeutic approaches.
That merges into elegant, numerical shape optimal design techniques which combine advantages of both approaches and allow for effective and efficient shape optimization of free formed surfaces, directly on the finite element mesh and for a large number of variables.
Results indicate that considering maximum energy storage capacity as the objective of optimization procedure leads to efficient shape design of LHTESS.
The more an efficient DMU impacts the shape of the efficient frontier, the higher the increase in the efficiency scores of the inefficient DMUs its removal brings about and, hence, the higher its contribution to the overall discriminant power of the method.
The most widely used GLM model with log link has been shown to suffer substantial efficiency losses when the log-scale error variance is large or the error distribution on the log scale is symmetric but heavy-tailed, but is more efficient for alternative shapes of the distribution (Manning and Mullahy, 2001).
He also made noted con-tributions to the development of efficient shape design optimization methods based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, which have been widely used in Industry for the aerodynamic design of contemporary transonic airplanes.
In recent years, there have been significant advances in our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying the motor commands that allow the hand to be shaped for efficient grasp of the object.
