Abstract:

Multilayer embedded passives (resistors, inductors, and capacitors) on a printed wiring board can help to meet high performance requirements at a low cost and at a smaller size. Such an integration of embedded passives has new challenges with respect to design, materials, manufacturing, thermal management and reliability. As the area of integral passives on printed circuit boards is relatively new, there is inadequate literature on the thermo-mechanical reliability of integral passives. Therefore, there is a compelling need to understand the thermo-mechanical reliability of integral passives

Abstract : The present study addressed the feasibility of reinforced-concrete squat walls totally reinforced with GFRP bars to attain reasonable strength and drift requirements as specified in different codes. Nine large-scale squat walls with aspect ratio (height to length ratio) of 1.33—one reinforced with steel bars (as reference specimen) and eight totally reinforced with GFRP bars—were constructed and tested to failure under quasi-static reversed cyclic lateral loading. The key studied parameters were: (1) use of bidiagonal web reinforcement; (2) use of bidiagonal sliding reinforcement; a

Abstract:

In heavily settled areas, deformations induced by the tunnel excavation may cause serious damage to nearby structures. In this study it is aimed to model ground deformations induced by main tunnels and connection tunnels excavations as well as groundwater drainage. Therefore, it is necessary to study effective means of controlling tunnel induced deformations. The main parameters affecting the failure and deformation state of the soil around a circular underground opening are the physical characteristics of the soil, the diameter of the opening, and the support pressure.

Abstract:

Ventilation imaging using 4D-CT is a convenient and cost effective functional imaging methodology which might be of value in radiotherapy treatment planning to spare functional lung volumes. To calculate ventilation imaging from 4D-CT we must use deformable image registration (DIR). This study validates the DIR methods and investigates the dependence of calculated ventilation on DIR methods and ventilation algorithms. The first hypothesis is if ventilation algorithms are robust then they will be insensitive to the precise DIR used provided the DIR is accurate. The second hypothesis is that th

Abstract:

Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) derived from two-dimensional echocardiography has been the cornerstone for LV function assessment for more than half a century. However, EF is only an indirect measure of cardiac output obtained from changes in LV volume, and does not necessarily reflect intrinsic myocardial contractile properties. Furthermore, LVEF measurement has a number of challenges that relate to image quality, LV geometry assumptions, and technical expertise, and has significant issues with intra-observer, inter-observer, and test-retest variability.

Abstract:

Cardiovascular diseases are responsible for approximately a third of all death worldwide, with hypertension being a major risk factor for many of those. Hypertension can lead to left ventricle hypertrophy and diastolic and systolic dysfunction. Myocardial deformation parameters have been shown to have high sensitivity at the early stage of contractile dysfunction. They can be derived from myocardial tagging, considered to be the goldstandard method, or from routinely acquired cine images using feature tracking (FT) techniques. This work aimed to validate FT as a post processing technique. Thre

Abstract:

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the gold standard imaging technique for assessment of ventricular dimensions and function. CMR also allows assessment of ventricular deformation but this requires additional imaging sequences and time consuming post processing which has limited its widespread use. A novel CMR analysis software package, ‘feature tracking’ (Tom Tec, Germany) can measure ventricular deformation directly from cine CMR images.

Abstract:

A basic requirement for safe geological storage of CO2 is the ability and integrity of the storage complex to contain the CO2. However, the storage formation and the caprock may contain fractures and/or faults that could provide a permeable conduit for CO2 migration out of the prime storage formation. Furthermore, CO2 injection may induce or reactivate fracture networks and faults providing a pathway for CO2 leakage. Recent experience from large scale industrial CO2 storage projects have shown that the geomechanical response of structural features to CO2 injection is a critical parameter contr

There is an impetus in the UK to move away from empirical pavement foundation design and the current method specification, towards an analytical design approach. For an analytical design approach to be adopted, the required performance properties of stiffness and resistance to permanent deformation of the foundation materials (sub grade and capping) need to be measured, both in the laboratory for design and in the field in order to ensure compliance. This thesis studies the influence of the sub grade on the constructability and performance of a series of full-scale pavement foundations. This h

Abstract:

Grade 91 steel has been extensively used for high temperature since it was introduced in the 1980s.

Many incidents reported about premature weld failures of Grade 91 steel suggest that the design standards and guidelines may be non-conservative for the pressure vessels and piping made of Grade 91 steel.
