Closed-form physical model for VLSI bipolar devices consideringenergy transport

A closed-form physical model is reported for VLSI bipolar devices considering energy transport. Based on the model, for a base width of 810 Å, the bipolar device, biased at V_cb=2 V, has a peak electron temperature of over 700 K, which results in a 5% reduction in the collector current     

Comparison of calcium phosphate cement mixture and pure calcium hydroxide as direct pulp-capping agents

This review reports the different genetic factors that have been identified either as risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) or directly causing the disease. First are reviewed epidemiological data and biological mechanisms about the apoplipoprotein E gene allele epsilon 4 that is a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. The second part describes the mutations responsible for early-onset autosomal dominant AD found in three different genes. The gene located on chromosome 21 encodes the amyloid precusor protein (APP). The presenilin 1 and presenilin 2 genes, located on chromosome 14 and 1 respectively, encode not yet known membrane proteins.     

3D model retrieval using principal plane analysis and dynamic programming

Three dimensional models play an important role in many applications; the problem is how to select the appropriate models from a 3D database rapidly and accurately. In recent years, a variety of shape representations, statistical methods, and geometric algorithms have been proposed for matching 3D shapes or models. In this paper, we propose a 3D shape representation scheme based on a combination of principal plane analysis and dynamic programming. The proposed 3D shape representation scheme consists of three steps. First, a 3D model is transformed into a 2D image by projecting the vertices of the model onto its principal plane. Second, the convex hall of the 2D shape of the model is further segmented into multiple disjoint triangles using dynamic programming. Finally, for each triangle, a projection score histogram and moments are extracted as the feature vectors for similarity searching. Experimental results showed the robustness of the proposed scheme, which resists translation, rotation, scaling, noise, and destructive attacks. The proposed 3D model retrieval method performs fairly well in retrieving models having similar characteristics from a database of 3D models.     

Fivefold symmetry in real and reciprocal spaces

Tetrahedrally close-packed structures with juxtaposed pentagonal antiprisms, such as the μ, C14 Laves and the newly found C phases, were studied by means of HREM and SAD. It was found that each bright spot in the structural image corresponds to an antiprism. Differently oriented domains of these phases intergrow frequently with a fairly good match at the interphase boundary. All diffraction patterns of these phases show a fivefold distribution of spot-pairs, and it is shown that this fivefold symmetry comes from the pentagons and spot-pairs from two pentagonal prisms superposed in antisymmetrical positions.

Stability analysis for discrete linear systems with state saturation by a saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional

This paper concerns the stability analysis problem of discrete linear systems with state saturation using a saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional.We introduce a free matrix characterized by the sum of the absolute value of each elements for each row less than 1,which makes the state with saturation constraint reside in a convex polyhedron.A saturation-dependent Lyapunov functional is then designed to obtain a sufficient condition for such systems to be globally asymptotically stable.Based on this stability criterion,the state feedback control law synthesis problem is also studied.The obtained results are formulated in terms of bilinear matrix inequalities that can be solved by the presented iterative linear matrix inequality algorithm.Two numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
