As MOSFET dimensions are reduced to the sub-100 nm level, the electrical performance is critically dependent on the two-dimensional topology and concentrations of dopants in the semiconductor. In order to characterize, predict, and control the device topology, and hence the device behavior, it is essential to have a method of obtaining an accurate description of the 2-D profile. Moreover, knowl...

By applying fractal electromagnetic force fields on a thin layer of brine, we generate steady quasi-two-dimensional laminar flows with multiscale stagnation point topology. This topology is shown to control the evolution of pair separation (Delta) statistics by imposing a turbulentlike locality based on the sizes and strain rates of hyperbolic stagnation points when the flows are fast enough, i...

In this paper the piecewise level set method is combined with phase field method to solve the shape and topology optimization problem. First, the optimization problem is formed based on piecewise constant level set method then is updated using the energy term of phase field equations. The resulting diffusion equation which updates the level set function and optimization ...

We have developed an extension of the NEAT neuroevolution method, called NEATfields, to solve problems with large input and output spaces. The NEATfields method is a multilevel neuroevolution method using externally specified design patterns. Its networks have three levels of architecture. The highest level is a NEAT-like network of neural fields. The intermediate level is a field of identical ...

Two incompatible topologies appear in the study of adaptive systems: the graph topology in control design, and the coefficient topology in system identification. Their incompatibility is manifest in the stabilization problem of adaptive control. We argue that this problem can be approached by changing the geometry of the sets of control systems under consideration: estimating np parameters in a...

We give some easy to use criteria for deciding whether a MM obius plane, Laguerre plane or Minkowski plane, given in some normal form, is 2-dimensional. As an application of our results we prove that a Laguerre plane or Minkowski plane with a given topology on the point set is a (topological) 2-dimensional plane if and only if each derived aane plane at points of at least one parallel class is ...

This paper presents design and simulation of a low cost and low false alarm rate method for improved cyber-state awareness of critical control systems the Known Secure Sensor Measurements (KSSM) method. The KSSM concept relies on physical measurements to detect malicious falsification of the control systems state. The KSSM method can be incrementally integrated with already installed control sy...

We consider quasiperiodic nonconservative perturbations of two-dimensional nonlinear Hamiltonian systems. introduce the notion a degenerate resonance and study topology zone with odd even orders degeneracy. A special attention is paid oscillation synchronization while an invariant torus passing through zone. establish existence intervals respect to control parameter. The based on analysis pendu...
