Introduction: Lithospheric delamination beneath the western U.S. is believed to be the driving mechanism responsible for the evolution of magmatic and topographic features observed at the surface in the western U.S.. This process requires hot asthenosphere to be in contact with the ... Read More
The ceramic metal halide lamps belong to the most efficient high intensity light sources of these days. Presently it is the nitrogen contamination that causes the most significant problems during ignition. If this material gets into the lamp's interior in high concentrations, it will ... Read More
The goal of a tokamak is to use high magnetic fields to contain plasma and produce nuclear fusion that can be used for power generation. MIT’s Plasma Science Fusion Center (PSFC) and collaborators are proposing a machine, the Advanced Divertor eXperiment (ADX) to test new technology for ... Read More
The use of grating couplers to couple conventionally phased and polarized light near vertically in and out of optical slab or film waveguides [1] represents an attractive method to interface optical fiber to photonic ICs. Previously developed grating coupler designs use transversely ... Read More
The Fraunhofer Ernst-Mach-Institute (EMI) developed a novel, high-g accelerometer, which is an undamped MEMS device, containing self-supporting piezoresistive elements. The main requirements for such a sensor are high sensitivity, high resonant frequency and a solid mechanical design. ... Read More
The elbow joint in dogs constitutes a complex interaction of three bones, the humerus, radius and ulna. Medial coronoid disease (MCD) is a common cause of lameness in dogs, i.e. fracturing of the most prominent portion of the ulnar joint surface driven in flexion and in pivot against ... Read More
The High Flux Isotope Reactor at the Oak Ridge National Lab is in the research stage of converting its fuel from high-enriched uranium to low-enriched uranium. One of the areas being explored is the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon due to the interaction of thin fuel plates (50 ... Read More
Primary current distribution model for anodization of low-doped p-type silicon through a circular opening in frontside insulating mask is developed. The model is applied in two regimes of the process – pore formation and electropolishing – by definition of current density dependent ... Read More
The paper illustrates the use of COMSOL for obtaining the quantum mechanics wave function Ψ(x,y,z,t) as a solution to the time dependent Schrödinger equation. Once having Ψ(x,y,z,t), it can be used to compute the probability of a particle being in a specific zone within the spatial ... Read More
The purpose of this work is to investigate the triggering behaviour of safety fuses for mobile on board supply systems. The influence of different materials and shapes of the fuses on the triggering behaviour are analyzed. Furthermore, the simulation results obtained by the use of COMSOL ... Read More
