An Integrated System-on-Chip Test Framework

In this paper we propose a framework for the testing of system-on-chip (SOC), which includes a set of design algorithms to deal with test scheduling, test access mechanism design, test sets selection, test parallelization, and test resource placement. The approach minimizes the test application time and the cost of the test access mechanism while considering constraints on tests, power consumption

Can Persistence be a Matter of Convention?

This paper asks whether persistence can be a matter of convention. It argues that in a rather unexciting de dicto sense persistence is indeed a matter of convention, but it rejects the notion that persistence can be a matter of convention in a more substantial de re sense. However, scenarios can be imagined that appear to involve conventional persistence of the latter kind. Since there are strong

Hyperelastic constants from a modified hardness test using energy balance obtained from FE-analysis

In order to simplify the hyperelastic characterisation of rubber materials, an extension of the standard hardness test is proposed. A number of indentation depths are chosen for the hardness test and the indentation forces for these depths are recorded. By this modification, hyperelastic constants can be derived from the test, providing more information from the test by a small extra effort. Equiv

Theoretical and experimental evaluation of a plate heat exchanger aftercooler in an evaporative gas turbine cycle

The evaporative gas turbine pilot plant (EvGT) has been in operation at Lund Institute of Technology in Sweden since 1997. This article presents the experimental and theoretical results of the latest process modifications made, i.e. the effect of the installation of an aftercooler. The purpose of the aftercooler is to increase the performance of the cycle by utilizing more low-level heat in the hu

Central or Local Compensation of Earth-Fault Currents in Non-Effectively Earthed Distribution Systems

Centralized Petersen coil earthing in networks with extensive use of underground cable involves flow of large quantities of reactive earth fault current. In networks with long radial cable feeders this creates problems involving active losses and active and reactive earth fault current. One possible solution to the problem is the use of local compensation. This paper aims at understanding the limi

Multiplexing efficiency of MIMO antennas in arbitrary propagation scenarios

Multiplexing efficiency has recently been proposed as a performance metric for characterizing the absolute efficiency of MIMO antennas in a reference channel. In this work, we generalize this metric to account for arbitrary propagation channels, so the impact of the channel can also be studied. Using the extended definition of multiplexing efficiency, the respective roles of effective antenna gain

Waste in Overflow

Why is waste such an important topic for understanding the management of overflow? First, because waste is a classic symbol of overflow: to be flooded with too much stuff that demands handling, sorting, and decision-making is a feeling well known in consumer society. Facts and figures speak of the same overflow. Waste disposal is a growing problem. The downside of consumption is a growing mountain
