Testing and reliability assessment are crucial aspects when considering the thermal domain’s influence on the overall system. Thermal interactions occur between all subsystems, and their separation can disrupt internal thermal interactions, altering ...

Conduction and entropy analysis of a mixed memristor-resistor model for neuromorphic networks
To build neuromorphic hardware with self-assembled memristive networks, it is necessary to determine how the functional connectivity between electrodes can be adjusted, under the application of external signals.

Models of solar and space plasmas require an accurate model for thermal transport. The simplest such model is to assume that the fluid approach is valid and that local transport models can be used. These local transport coefficients are derived under the

Specular Reflection Leads to Maximum Reduction in Thermal Conductivity [PDF]
In contrast to established work that use diffuse surface scattering as the mechanism to lower the thermal conductivities, we show that the largest reduction of heat conduction in thin films is achieved via specular scattering. Our results create a new paradigm for heat conduction manipulation since smooth surfaces , in contrast to rough surfaces , are ...

The temperature distribution during heating in hot plate welding process
Most of the industrial machines use the belt transmission for the power transfer. These mechanisms often use the round belts with a few millimetres in diameter, which are made of the thermoplastic elastomers, especially the polyurethane. Their production

Quantum Conductance Oscillations in Metal/Molecule/Metal Switches at Room Temperature [PDF]
Conductance switching has been reported in many molecular junction devices, but in most cases has not been convincingly explained. We investigate conductance switching in Pt/stearic acid monolayer/Ti devices using pressure-modulated conductance microscopy.

Electrical Conductivity of Nanoscale Hydrophobic Porous Media: Surface Charge Density and Heterogeneous Pore Structure [PDF]
Electrical conductivity is an inherent property of a hydrophobic porous media (HPM) and has critical applications. This research aims to provide a solution for predicting the electrical conductivity of nanoscale HPM with heterogeneous pore structure. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are compared with the modified Poisson-Boltzmann (MPB) model for ...

Conductance and polarization in quantum junctions [PDF]
We revisit the expression for the conductance of a general nanostructure -- such as a quantum point contact -- as obtained from the linear response theory. We show that the conductance represents the strength of the Drude singularity in the conductivity $\sigma(k,k';i\omega \to 0)$.

Investigations on electrostatic dissipative materials derived from Poly(vinyl alcohol)/ferrofluid composites [PDF]
Biodegradable polymer composites based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and ferrofluid (FF) were prepared by solutioncasting method. Such composites were characterized by various methods in order to evaluate their potential for use as elec-trostatic ...
