Field-Only Surface Integral Equations: Scattering from a Perfect Electric Conductor

February 1, 2020
Author(s)
Qiang Sun, Evert Klaseboer, Alex Yuffa, Derek Y. Chan
A field-only boundary integral formulation of electromagnetics is derived without the use of surface currents that appear in the Stratton--Chu formulation. For scattering by a perfect electrical conductor (PEC), the components of the electric field are

Overshoot Mitigation Using the Reference Governor Framework

January 12, 2020
Author(s)
DJ Anand, Hamid Ossareh, Collin Freiheit
This paper presents a novel reference governor scheme for overshoot mitigation in a tracking control system. Our proposed scheme, referred to as the Reference Governor with DynamicConstraint (RG-DC), recasts the overshoot mitigation problem as a constraint

Micromagnetic Study of Soft Magnetic Nanowires

December 27, 2019
Author(s)
Farzad Ahmadi, Michael J. Donahue, Yilmaz Sozer, Igor Tsukerman
In this paper, micromagnetic analysis of an array of long magnetic nanowires (NWs) embedded in a nonmagnetic matrix is performed. It is found that for NWs with diameters on the order of a hundred nanometers, the anisotropy and exchange energies are

Enhancing LAA Co-existence Using MIMO Under Imperfect Sensing

December 13, 2019
Author(s)
Somayeh Mosleh, Yao Ma, Jason B. Coder, Erik Perrins, Lingjia Liu
To meet the ever growing wireless network demands, in terms of subscribers and data throughput, operating long term evolution (LTE) in unlicensed bands, also known as license assisted access (LAA), is introduced as a promising solution. However, the LAA

Infrastructure for Model Based Analytics for Manufacturing

December 9, 2019
Author(s)
Sanjay Jain, Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Yung-Tsun Lee
Multi-resolution simulation models of manufacturing system, such as the virtual factory, coupled with analytics offer exciting opportunities to manufacturers to exploit the increasing availability of data from their corresponding real factory at different

On Practice and Theory of Constructive Composite Geometry and Topology

November 25, 2019
Author(s)
Thomas D. Hedberg Jr., Allison Barnard Feeney, Vijay Srinivasan
This paper synthesizes a theory from industrial best practices codified in recent standards. Recent editions of ASME and ISO standards codify the evolving industrial best practices in defining and modeling the information about products made from fibrous

Forced Edges and Graph Structure

November 19, 2019
Author(s)
Brian D. Cloteaux
For a degree sequence, its set of forced edges are the edges that appear in every realization of that sequence, while its forbidden edges appear in no realization. We examine sequences with forced or forbidden edges, showing relationships between these

Geometry Entrapment in Walk-on-Subdomains

November 19, 2019
Author(s)
Walid Keyrouz, Preston Hamlin, W. J. Thrasher, Michael V. Mascagni
One method of computing the electrostatic energy of a biomolecule in a solution combines the Walk-On-Spheres and Walk-On-Subdomains Monte Carlo algorithms. In the course of examining an implementation of this method, a performance issue was discovered in

Design of an intelligent PYTHON code to run coupled and license-free finite-element and statistical analysis software for calibration of near-field scanning microwave microscopes

October 2, 2019
Author(s)
Jeffrey T. Fong, N. Alan Heckert, James Filliben, Pedro V. Marcal, Samuel Berweger, Thomas Mitchell (Mitch) Wallis, Pavel Kabos
To calibrate near-field scanning microwave microscopes (NSMM) for defect detection and characterization in semiconductors, it is common to develop a parametric finite element analysis (FEA) code to guide the microscope user on how to optimize the settings
