An algorithm that simplifies the evaluation of the reverse dark current–voltage (J–V) characteristic of semiconductor thin film devices is presented. This algorithm, recognized with the symbols “0KRDA”, is an approximation ...

In industry, some parts are prone to failures or their design is simply sub-optimal. In those critical situations, one would like to be able to make changes to the part, making it lighter or improving its mechanical ...

Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy is additively processed by selective laser melting for the first time. Reversible martensitic transformation of the as-built material is proven by differential scanning calorimetry. ...

We have investigated the magnetic properties of 14 nm thick and 1 μm long nickel and permalloy nanotubes with external diameters of 40 and 100 nm as a function of the angle θ at which the external magnetic field is applied. ...

Mesh segmentation and parameterization are crucial for Reverse Engineering (RE). Bijective parameterizations of the sub-meshes are a sine-qua-non test for segmentation. Current segmentation methods use either (1) topologic ...

The production of µ-particles of Metamagnetic Shape Memory Alloys by crushing and subsequent ball milling process has been analyzed. The high energy involved in the milling process induces large internal stresses and high ...
