Glass sculptures that look like knitted yarn

tumblr_ndh5i5Cgs41qccpz7o4_1280.jpg

Artist Carol Milne creates remarkable glass sculptures that look like knitted yarn. She achieves the effect by knitting with pliable wax, which she then turns into a heat resistant mold. She pours molten glass into the mold to create the final sculpture. The process is described in detail in Carol Milne Knitted Glass: How Does She Do That? by Steve Isaacson. Milne’s work is part of the ongoing exhibition “Reaching Beyond: The Northwest Designer Craftsmen at 60″ at the Whatcom Museum in Bellingham, Washington through January 4, 2015.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
