Design and Optimization of Low Power and Low Light Sensor

Christian Enz, Assim Boukhayma, Antonino Caizzone, Raffaele Capoccia

The current trend towards embedding more and more light sensors in portable and wearable devices is calling for higher integration and reuse of the sensor interface electronics. In many applications, the light needs to be generated locally, which becomes t ...

High Speed SAR ADC Architectures in 28nm FDSOI CMOS

Mustafa Kilic

The demand on high speed Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) has increased considerably the last years. From communications circuit to high speed oscilloscopes, Giga Samples per second (GS/s) ADCs are requested. With the scaling of the CMOS technology, des ...

Punching strength of continuous flat slabs

Jürgen Einpaul

Reinforced concrete slabs with uniform thickness are common in residential and commercial buildings but can also be found in other types of structures. Such slabs are susceptible to punching shear failures, where a supporting column penetrates through the ...

Compressive Membrane Action Effects on Punching Strength of Flat RC Slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Raffaele Cantone, Beatrice Belletti, Luca Manelli

The design of reinforced concrete flat slabs in practice can be governed at failure by punching shear close to concentrated loads or columns. Punching shear resistance formulations provided by codes are calibrated on the basis of experimental tests on isol ...

The Critical Shear Crack Theory for punching design: from a mechanical model to closed-form design expressions

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

The Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) is a consistent approach used for shear design of one- and two-way slabs failing in shear and punching shear respectively. The theory is based on a mechanical model allowing to determine the amount of shear force that ...

Influence of moment redistribution and compressive membrane action on punching strength of flat slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Jürgen Einpaul

The punching shear strength of interior column connections of flat slabs has traditionally been investigated with isolated test specimens subjected exclusively to hogging bending moments. However, the behavior of such specimens is different from that of ac ...

Effect of Deformation History on Punching Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Slabs

Robert Koppitz

Deformation-dependent punching shear resistance often constitutes the decisive design criterion for reinforced concrete slabs supported by columns. The increasing number of aging structures exhibiting insufficient punching resistance and detailing deficien ...

Joint Power Allocation and Path Selection for Multi-Hop Noncoherent Decode and Forward UWB Communications

Xiaoli Ma, Marco Mondelli, Qi Zhou

With the aim of extending the coverage and improving the performance of impulse radio ultra-wideband (UWB) systems, this paper focuses on developing a novel single differential encoded decode and forward (DF) non-cooperative relaying scheme (NCR). To favor ...

Effect of transverse load on the critical current of a coated conductor Roebel cable

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

Roebel cables are one possible option for use in the manufacture of high current conductors for various technical applications. In this work the behaviour of critical current under transverse loads up to 90 MPa was studied in coated conductor Roebel cables ...

Design for punching of prestressed concrete slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, António Manuel Pinho Ramos, Thibault Clément

Prestressing in flat slabs helps in controlling deformations and cracking under service loads and allows reducing the required slab thickness, leading thus to more slender structures and being therefore an economic solution for long spans. However, as a co ...
