In the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium, the Work Package Heating and Current Drive (WPHCD) is undertaking the development and design of the DEMO Heating and Current Drive (HCD) system, supported by the Work Package Plant Level Systems Engineering, D ...
Modern optical systems are subject to very restrictive performance, size and cost requirements. Especially in portable systems size often is the most important factor, which necessitates elaborate designs to achieve the desired specifications. However, cur ...
This paper outlines the theoretical background of the punching shear provisions implemented in the fib Model Code 2010 and presents a practical example of its applica tion. It is the aim to explain the mechanical model that forms the basis of the punching ...
We investigate the technological con-strains and design limitations of ultrathin body junctionless dou- ble gate MOSFET (JL DG MOSFET). Relationships between the silicon thickness and the doping concentration compatible with design requirements in terms of ...
This paper discusses the technical challenges and trade-offs tied to design of medium frequency transformers (MFTs) for medium-voltage (MV) high-power (HP) power electronic applications, namely emerging solid state transformers (SSTs). A detailed analysis ...
This work has been triggered by an industrial project targeting the design of a mechatronic injector for the medical field. Injections are usually performed using a syringe, a quite clumsy tool that transforms the injection task in a positioning one. The q ...
For more than a decade, Europe has been the wireless continent; today, wireless has almost completely shifted to the U.S. and Asia. This shift has had a profound impact on the electronic, semiconductor, and design ecosystem: long-time leaders have disappea ...
This paper proposes a novel type of RFID application, i.e., RFID seeking. Several existing types of RFID applications such as monitoring, searching, locating/navigating, are similar with RFID seeking. However, they are either inapplicable or vulnerable for ...
This paper summarizes a study that was undertaken to reveal potential challenges and opportunities for integrating optimisation tools in Net/Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) Design. The paper reviews current trends in simulation-based Building Performan ...
Electronic design automation (EDA) has enabled the integrated circuit industry to sustain exponentially increasing product complexity growth until today, while maintaining consistent product development timeline and costs. We argue that the success of EDA- ...
