An Empirical Comparison of Combinatorial and Random Testing

Author(s)
Laleh Ghandehari, Jacek Czerwonka, Yu Lei, Soheil Shafiee, Raghu N. Kacker, D. Richard Kuhn
Some conflicting results have been reported on the comparison between t-way combinatorial testing and random testing. In this paper, we report a new study that...

Modeling of moment connections for structural fire analyses

Author(s)
Mina S. Seif, Therese P. McAllister, Joseph A. Main, William E. Luecke
Performance-based methodologies to evaluate the fire performance of structures are needed to move beyond the prescriptive procedures presently in use, which...

Fire Model Validation – Eight Lessons Learned

Author(s)
Kevin B. McGrattan, Richard D. Peacock, Kristopher J. Overholt
This paper provides a summary of a decade-long effort to verify and validate a variety of different fire models used in the commercial nuclear industry. The...

Fast-Capacitance for Advanced Device Characterization

Author(s)
Pragya R. Shrestha, Kin P. Cheung, Jason T. Ryan, Jason P. Campbell, Helmut Baumgart
Fast-CV measurements are frequently being used to study transient phenomena associated with advanced devices. In this study, we show that many artifacts plague...

Unusual Bias Temperature Instability in SiC DMOSFET

Author(s)
Zakariae Chbili, Kin P. Cheung, Jason P. Campbell, John S. Suehle, D. E. Ioannou, Aivars Lelis, Sei-Hyung Ryu
We observe an unusual instability in the SiC DMOSFET transistor characteristics. From a series of bias conditions at elevated temperatures, we conclude that a...

Constant Shape Factor Frequency Modulated Charge Pumping (FMCP)

Author(s)
Jason T. Ryan, Jason P. Campbell, Jibin Zou, Kin P. Cheung, Richard Southwick, Anthony Oates, Rue Huang
Abstract— We examine the seemingly frequency-dependent gate leakage current component of frequency-modulated charge pumping and show it to be a measurement...

Dependence of the Filament Resistance on the Duration of Current Overshoot

Author(s)
Pragya R. Shrestha, David M. Nminibapiel, Jason P. Campbell, Kin P. Cheung, Helmut Baumgart, Shweta Deora, G. Bersuker
The characteristics of a conductive filament in HfO2 RRAM is shown to be dependent on the duration of the current compliance overshoot, which may occur during...

Trust Issues with Opportunistic Encryption

Author(s)
Scott W. Rose
Recent revelations have shed light on the scale of eavesdropping on Internet traffic; violating the privacy of almost every Internet user. In response, protocol...

Micro-Deformation in the Fracture of a Toughened Epoxy

Author(s)
Donald Hunston, Cyril Clerici, Aurélien Blond, Aaron Forster
Thermoset resins are used in many composites and structural adhesives because they have excellent proper-ties. Unfortunately, they tend to be quite brittle...

IAQ 2013 Tools Topic Overview

Author(s)
Steven J. Emmerich, Larry Schoen
The complex relationships between indoor and outdoor environmental conditions, coupled with the impacts of climate change, make it more important than ever...

Polarized 3HE Spin Filters for Neutron Science

Author(s)
Thomas R. Gentile, Wei-Chen N. Chen
The large spin dependence of the absorption cross section for neutrons by 3He gas provides a method to polarize neutron beams. For certain applications, such...

Optimal Spread in Network Consensus Models

Author(s)
Fern Y. Hunt
Suppose we seek a set of nodes in a network that will enable the fastest spread of information in a decentralized communication environment. If communication...
