Photograph - Dorothy Rungeling with Plane

A photograph of Dorothy Rungeling in front of a plane with the Mack Trucks and Buses logo. This photograph is from her personal scrapbooks, the page is labelled "1956 International Air Race Hamilton to Havana".

Photograph - Dorothy Rungeling's Fifth Plane

A photograph of Dorothy Rungeling inside her fifth and last plane (as written in her scrapbook). The airplane is described as a 1956 Beech Bonanza, 4 seat, retractable gear, 225 Continental engine.

Photograph - Dorothy Rungeling with Plane (Pacer 125), 1954

A photograph of Dorothy Rungeling in front of a plane (likely the second plane she owned). This photograph later appeared in the Canadian general interest magazine "Saturday Night". Mrs. Rungeling was featured in the "Canadian Personalities" section for her latest accomplishment, receiving her commercial pilot's licence.

Vector flow mapping using plane wave ultrasound imaging

Les diagnostics cliniques des maladies cardio-vasculaires sont principalement effectués à l’aide d’échographies Doppler-couleur malgré ses restrictions : mesures de vélocité dépendantes de l’angle ainsi qu’une fréquence d’images plus faible à cause de focalisation traditionnelle. Deux études, utilisant des approches différentes, adressent ces restrictions en utilisant l’imagerie à onde-plane, post-traitée avec des méthodes de délai et sommation et d’autocorrélation. L’objectif de la présente étude est de ré-implémenté ces méthodes pour analyser certains paramètres qui affecte la précision des estimations de la vélocité du flux sanguin en utilisant le Doppler vectoriel 2D. À l’aide d’expériences in vitro sur des flux paraboliques stationnaires effectuées avec un système Verasonics, l’impact de quatre paramètres sur la précision de la cartographie a été évalué : le nombre d’inclinaisons par orientation, la longueur d’ensemble pour les images à orientation unique, le nombre de cycles par pulsation, ainsi que l’angle de l’orientation pour différents flux. Les valeurs optimales sont de 7 inclinaisons par orientation, une orientation de ±15° avec 6 cycles par pulsation. La précision de la reconstruction est comparable à l’échographie Doppler conventionnelle, tout en ayant une fréquence d’image 10 à 20 fois supérieure, permettant une meilleure caractérisation des transitions rapides qui requiert une résolution temporelle élevée.

A Microstrip Patch Resonator with a Via Connecting Ground Plane

patch resonator with a via connecting ground plane is proposed and studied experimentally. The resonant frequency of this patch resonator is tunable up to about 34 % by adjusting the via position in the center line. The lowest resonant frequency of this patch resonator has been reduced by more than 64% of the same size patch resonator

Axially Symmetric Radiation Patterns from Flanged E-Plane Sectoral Horn

A simple technique for obtaining identical E- and H-plane patterns from E-plane sectoral feed horn is presented. Halfpower beam width and gain of the antenna are also improved considerably. Experimental results for a number of horns with flanges of various parameters are also presented. This system may find practical application in radar and space communication systems

Investigations on Broadband Plannar Monoplole Antennas with Truncated Ground Plane

The space constraints on wireless gadgets is a challenge to antenna designers as the ground plane dimensions of the printed monopole significantly affect s the antenna characteristics.Investigations on ground plane truncations have led to the development of an extremely broad band printed monopole antenna.Omnidirectional radiation characteristics with moderate gain makes this antenna highly suitable for mobile/wireless applications .This thesis also highlights the development of UWB printed antenna along with design equations .Optimum ground plane dimensions for compact antenna applications,folding technique for miniaturization and double folding for dual band application are the other highlights of this thesis.

Strip-loaded hollow dielectric H-plane sectoral horn antennas for square radiation pattern

The radiation characteristics of a new type of hollow dielectric H-plane sectoral horn antenna are presented. Metallic strips of optimum length are loaded on the H-walls of the sectoral horns. The effects of strip loading for producing square patterns in the H plane are discussed.

Exchange-correlation effects on quantum wires with spin-orbit interactions under the influence of in-plane magnetic fields.

Within the noncollinear local spin-density approximation, we have studied the ground state structure of a parabolically confined quantum wire submitted to an in-plane magnetic field, including both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions. We have explored a wide range of linear electronic densities in the weak (strong) coupling regimes that appear when the ratio of spin-orbit to confining energy is small (large). These results are used to obtain the conductance of the wire. In the strong coupling limit, the interplay between the applied magnetic field¿irrespective of the in-plane direction, the exchange-correlation energy, and the spin-orbit energy-produces anomalous plateaus in the conductance vs linear density plots that are otherwise absent, or washes out plateaus that appear when the exchange-correlation energy is not taken into account.
