MMS design allowing to move several cabins vertically, without counterweights. The vertical motion is performed with linear synchronous motors having stators distributed along the shafts and supplied by sectors. A simplified analytic approach developped at ...
The transient and static behavior of an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) are analyzed through finite elements simulations and physically based equations. The standard model using a bipolar transistor driven by a MOSFET is abandoned for three partia ...
The Ward-Dutton (WD) partitioning scheme is used extensively to develop transient and high-frequency advanced compact models in MOSFET analysis. However, it remains an open question if this scheme can be used for field-dependent mobility that is enhanced i ...
Analysing and optimising electromagnetic structures like filters, multiplexers, printed circuits and antennas etc. demand for electromagnetic CAD tools to be accurate and fast at the same time. In very rare cases a closed form (approximate) solution of the ...
The design and minaturization of microwave circuits involves the analysis and optimization of a large varity of structures, which, in general, are based on arbritrary objects embedded in also arbritary media. The most common situation is found when optimiz ...
In this paper, we derive an integral equation describing the antenna-mode currents along a two-wire transmission line (TL). We show that when the cross-sectional dimensions of the line are electrically small, the integral equation reduces to a pair of TL-l ...
Ground-motion prediction equations (GMPE) for horizontal peaks of acceleration and velocity, and for horizontal response spectral ordinates, have employed a variety of definitions for the horizontal component of motion based on different treatments of the ...
We elaborate in this thesis the numerical simulation of the fluid-structure interaction by the spectral element method. To this end we consider the Navier-Stokes equations for a viscous Newtonian incompressible fluid with an elastic solid the movement of w ...
We study a class of hyperbolic stochastic partial di®erential equations in Euclidean space, that includes the wave equation and the telegraph equation, driven by Gaussian noise concentrated on a hyperplane. The noise is assumed to be white in time but spat ...
In this paper, we seek similarity solutions to the shallow water (Saint-Venant) equations for describing the motion of a non-Boussinesq, gravity-driven current in an inertial regime. The current is supplied in fluid by a source placed at the inlet of a hor ...
