Based on the hydrodynamic energytransport model, using two-dimensional device simulator Medici, the relation between structureparameters and hot carrier effect immunity for deep-sub-micron N-channel MOSFET's is studiedand compared with that of counterpart conventional planar device in this paper. The examinedstructure parameters include negative junction depth, concave corner and effective channel length.Simulation results show that grooved gate device can suppress hot carrier effect deeply even indeep sub-micron region. The studies also indicate that hot carrier effect is strongly influencedby the concave corner and channel length for grooved gate device. With the increase of concavecorner, the hot carrier effect in grooved gate MOSFET decreases sharply, and with the reducingof effective channel length, the hot carrier effect becomes large.展开更多

The discrete element method (DEM) was used for the simulations. The terms stratification and penetration are defined and the change in fine panicle concentration is discussed. Mathematical models relating fine particle ratio to time are established using the least squares method. The effect of structural parameters on fine panicle ratio is analyzed. Stratification and penetration rate are discussed by considering the time derivative of the fine panicle ratio. The conclusions are: an increase in inclination or wire diameter has a positive effect on par- ticle stratifying; The optimal screen width is 40 mm for panicle stratification; The inclination angle has a negative effect on the penetration; The effect of wire diameter and screen width on the penetration rate is negligible.展开更多

The results show that the desilication ratio in the solution prepared by the addition of sodium silicate(solution-SS) is much greater than that in the solution by the addition of green liquor(solution-GL), and low alumina concentration in the sodium aluminate solutions facilitates the desilication process. It is also shown that alumino-silicate anions in the solution-GL, and Q^3 polymeric silicate anions in solution-SS are predominant, respectively. In addition, increasing the concentration of silica favors respectively the formation of the alumino-silicate or the Q^3 silicate anions in the solution-GL or the solution-SS. Therefore, it can be inferred that the low desilication ratio in the silicate-bearing aluminate solution is mainly attributed to the existence of alumino-silicate anions.展开更多

When it is mounted under the structure of this robot, the magnet produces a large amount of normal force resulting from the interaction between its field lines and the steel frame of the arena, reducing the risk of slipping its wheels. Thus, the heavier a robot, the greater the difficulty for the opponent to remove it from the arena. This article explains the properties of Nd-Fe-Br magnets and analyzes the influence of these characteristics in the relation induction/weight. Additionally, to a comparative analysis, this research analyzes the positioning, geometry and polarization of the magnets under study, based on numerical results obtained using Inventor and K & J Magnets Calculator software, given that these factors influence in their energetic product generation. Furthermore, more than just working with what we believe is a subject of great interest for sumo robot's teams, this study encourages their competitiveness, an essential factor for the competition.展开更多

The quinary inor- ganic compounds crystallize in a body-centered tetragonal lattice with space group I4/mmm, which contain double Fe2As2 layers that are separated by insulating Ca2F2 layers. The electrical and magnetic measurements on the polycrys- talline samples demonstrate that the new materials undergo superconducting transitions at Tc = 30.5 and 28.2 K, respec- tively, without extrinsic doping. The correlations between Tc and structural parameters are discussed.展开更多

This paper investigates the effective conductivity of SOFC electrodes recon- structed numerically by packing spherical particles in a computational domain, followed by a dilation process to simulate the sintering procedure. The effects of various parameters on the effective conductivity of the electrodes are investigated, including material composition, porosity, particle size and contact angle. Results show that the effective conductivity ratio (aeff/ao) of the computed con- ducting phase is mainly affected by its total volume frac- tion (VF) in electrode (including the porosity). The effective conductivity can be improved by increasing the VF, electrode particle size or the contact angle between electrode particles. Based on the numerical results, the conventional percolation model for the calculation of O'eft is improved by adjusting the Bruggeman factor from 1.5 to 2.7. The results are useful for understanding the microstructure properties of SOFC composite electrode and for subsequent electrode optimization.展开更多

Instanton induced contributions are well defined for the nucleon structure function. The non-perturbative contribution to the quark distributions of structure function, F2(x, Q2), is considered within an instanton model for the QCD vacuum. We find that the structure function may possess numerically large non-perterbative contributions which are related to the violation of chirality and correspond to the correction of parton distribution of the leading twist. It is shown that the instantons give a negative contribution to the structure function at the NLO approximation. A comparison between our results, considering instantaon effect, and the case when we do not take this effect is done. Taking into account the instanton size, p, via the modified running coupling constant we get to a good agreement between our results at the NLO and NNLO approximations and the available experimental data, specially at the low values of the Bjorken variable x 〈 0.1 which confirms the validity of our calculations.展开更多
