PopTouch: A Submillimeter Thick Dynamically Reconfigured Haptic Interface with Pressable Buttons

Herbert Shea, Amir Firouzeh, Ayana Mizutani

The interactions with touchscreens rely heavily on vision: The virtual buttons and virtual sliders on a touchscreen provide no mechanical sense of the object they seek to represent. This work presents PopTouch: a 500 mu m thick flexible haptic display that ...

Direct numerical simulations of two-phase immiscible wakes

François Gallaire

Tammisola et al (2012 J. Fluid Mech. 713 632-58) have observed a counter-intuitive destabilizing effect of the surface tension in planar wakes by means of a global linear analysis. In the present study, we conduct direct numerical simulation (DNS) of wakes ...
