Modeling of Ionic Hydrogel Kinetics in Buffered Solutions
In this paper, we present the meshless Finite Cloud Method (FCM) for the solution of a time-dependent partial differential equation governing ionic gel swelling. Using a point distribution, FCM constructs interpolation functions without assuming any [...]
Variance Reduction in Monte Carlo Device Simulation by Means of Event Biasing
A theoretical analysis of the Monte Carlo (MC) method for the solution of the stationary boundary value problem defined by the Boltzmann equation is briefly outlined. This analysis clearly shows how event biasing can be [...]
Moment-based Analysis of Mechanical Effects on Trench-Hall Devices
This paper presents a novel method for the assessment of mechanical effects on trench-Hall devices based on a moment expansion combined with two-dimensional finite-element discretization. Analogously to plate theories, a truncated moment expansion of the [...]
Fast Fluid Analysis for Multibody Micromachined Devices
Recently developed fast integral equation methods for computing solutions to the Stokes' equation have proven to be a valuable tool for micro-machined device designers. The speed of these fast codes make it possible to simulate [...]
Efficient Poisson Equation Solvers for Large Scale 3D Simulations
Self-consistent semiconductor device modeling requires repeated solution of the 2D or 3D Poisson equation that describes the potential profile of the device for a given charge distribution. As a result, efficient methods for the solution [...]
Automatic Generation of Small-Signal Dynamic Macromodels from 3-D Simulation
Recent algorithmic developments have greatly accelerated 3-D simulation of micromachined devices, but simulation and optimization of systems which use those devices require much more easily evaluated, yet still accurate, macromodels. In this paper we focus [...]
