The aim of this work is to set up mathematical models and numerical methods to investigate the mass transfer process occurring during the peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy. More precisely the final goal is the set up of tools to find for each patient submit ...
Relaxor-ferroelectric single crystals PZN-xPT [(1-x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3] and PMN-xPT [(1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3] continue to attract much interest due to their anomalously large piezoelectric properties (d33 > 2000 pm/V; k33 > 90%) when poled ("do ...
The region-by-region polarization switching in ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 thin films sandwiched between Pt electrodes has been directly observed using piezoelectric scanning probe microscopy. A resolution improved by one order-of-magnitude compared to the ...
Vehicular Networks (VNs) seek to provide, among other applications, safer driving conditions. To do so, vehicles need to periodically broadcast safety messages providing precise position information to nearby vehicles. However, this frequent messaging (e.g ...
Because of their low voltage level, supercapacitors need arrangement with series connection in order to obtain voltage levels from few dozen to few hunderd of volts. As for batteries, devices have then to be defined to balance the voltages across each seri ...
This paper introduces a mathematical model to evaluate fast and cost-effective 3D image sensors based on single photon detectors. The model will help engineers evaluate design parameters based on operating conditions and system performance. Ranging is base ...
We consider in this paper an induction heating process. A mathematical model is presented, together with numerical methods used in order to describe the magnetic field, as well as the temperature field evolution. Experimental measurements were performed in ...
Using a serial bilayer model we show that heterogeneous ferroelectric systems may exhibit substantial Maxwell-Wagner piezoelectric relaxation. The relaxation has its origin in the coupling of the dielectric and piezoelectric properties. The model predicts ...
