Using Secuirty Monitoring Tool to Improve Operation of the Water Distribution System

Kroll D., Hach Company, US

The distribution system represents the last analytical frontier in the water quality industry. Since 9/11, numerous communities have installed multi-parameter monitoring stations in locations throughout the distribution system as early warning systems based on potential [...]

Quantitative Detection by Single Ion Channel Event Statistics: an Algorithmic Approach

Lodesani F., Bennati M., Fiegna C., Tartagni M., ARCES, IT

The capability of having ligand-gated ion channels embedded in planar biomimetic membranes, together with a proper electronic system for elaborating the signal will give the possibility of creating high-performances sensors, able to detect low concentrations [...]

An efficient Adaptive Single-Mode (ASM) Pull-In Extraction Algorithm for Computer Aided Design of Electrostatic MEMS Devices

Elata D., Bochobza-Degani O., Nemirovsky Y., Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, IL

This paper presents a novel Adaptive Single-Mode (ASM) Pull-In extraction scheme for CAD of electrostatic MEMS. The scheme is 50 to 1000 times faster than various previously suggested methods. The extracted Pull-In parameters are shown [...]

A Robust Algorithm for Predicting Freezeout and Exhaustion Under Equilibrium Conditions

Pieper R., Michael S., Naval Postgraduate School, US

A numerically robust method for evaluating the temperature-dependent carrier concentrations and related Fermi levels is proposed. The method is applicable to simple cases for which analytical solutions are available as well as more complex cases [...]
