This model can model various MOS device structures with combinations of high-k dielectric materials and multilayer gate stacks,revealing quantum effects on the device performance. Comparisons are made for gate current behavior between nMOSFET and pMOSFET high- k gate stack structures. The results presented are consistent with experimental data, whereas a new finding for an optimum nitrogen content in HfSiON gate dielectric requires further experimental verifications.展开更多

Furthermore, by applying double-K fracture theory, KiniⅠC,KunⅠC, as well as the critical effective crack length and the critical crack tip opening displacement, were evaluated. Based on the double-K fracture parameters above, the calculation model of equivalent strength for induced crack was established, thus the calculation method on its initiation, stable propagation and unstable fracture was ascertained. Moreover, the finite element simulation analysis of stress field in ShaPai arch dam and the on-site observational splaying points of induced crack at different altitudes validated the reliability of the model. Finally, crack inducer′s optimal setting in RCC arch dam was studied. It improves the design level of induced crack in RCC arch dam and satisfies the necessity of engineering practice.展开更多

Individuals in agitation manifest their condition through "pain behavior", which includes facial expressions. Clinicians regard the patient's facial expression as a valid indicator for pain and pain intensity. Hence, correct interpretation of the facial agitation of the patient and its correlation with pain is a fundamental step in designing an automated pain assessment system. Computer vision techniques can be used to quantify agitation in sedated patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). In particular, such techniques can be used to develop objective agitation measurements from patient motion. In the case of paraplegic patients, whole body movement is not available, and hence, monitoring the whole body motion is not a viable solution. Hence in this case, the author measured head motion and facial grimacing for quantifying facial patient agitation in critical care based on Fuzzy k-NN.展开更多

However,uniform formulas remain elusive—even for more basic invariants such as the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension or the Bernstein degree, and are usually limited to families of representations in a dual pair setting. We use earlier work by Joseph to provide an elementary and intrinsic proof of a uniform formula for the Gelfand-Kirillov dimension of an arbitrary unitary highest weight module in terms of its highest weight. The formula generalizes a result of Enright and Willenbring(in the dual pair setting) and is inspired by Wang's formula for the dimension of a minimal nilpotent orbit.展开更多
