The paper demonstrates the use of probabilistic methods to assess the electromechanical behavior of micro electromechanical systems (MEMS) under the presence of micromachining manufacturing and process uncertainties. Probabilistic Methods are used to assess uncertainties involved in the manufacturing of MEMS devices. Probabilistic methods guide the design of these devices to achieve a robust an...

......We are pleased to introduce IEEE Micro’s sixth annual Top Picks from Computer Architecture Conferences special issue. This issue has become an important tradition in the computer architecture community, and one of the most important forms of recognition of research excellence. It is also an opportunity for those who don’t follow the research conferences closely to get a quick snapshot of ...

With the rapid development of the petroleum industry, a large number of oil contaminants leaked into the soil in the petrochemical complex areas, gas stations, automobile factory and other places, which resulted in serious soil contamination. Micro-Biological degradation of oil pollution was the focus of the present study. Many hydrocarbon-contaminated environments were characterized by low or ...

introduction: this study aimed to perform a rigorous sample standardization and also evaluate the preparation of mesiobuccal (mb) root canals of maxillary molars with severe curvatures using two single-file engine-driven systems (waveone with reciprocating motion and oneshape with rotary movement), using micro-computed tomography (micro-ct). methods and materials: ten mb roots with single canal...

conclusions our study obtained some evidences on the association of micro albuminuria with diastolic dysfunction in obese normotensive no diabetic individuals. nonetheless, more assessment is necessary for obtaining a causal relationship between micro albuminuria and diastolic dysfunction. background recently, an association between impaired diastolic function and increased urinary albumin excr...

in this paper, we investigated the necessity and effects of optimal control methods in the stability and performance of a micro-grid that operates in islanded mode. the micro-gird is consisted of a combine heat and power (chp), a capacitor bank (cb), photovoltaic panel (pv) as power generation sources. in addition, battery and the building electricity and thermal load are placed on the load sid...

gallium extraction from jajarm bayer process liquor (jajarm, iran) was investigated using microemulsions. also the behavior of aluminum was studied as an impurity. kelex100 (4-ethyl, 1-methyl, 7-octyl, 8-hydroxyquinoleine), iso-decanol and n-butanol, and kerosene were used as the surfactant, co-surfactant, and oil phase, respectively. ternary phase diagrams were produced using various co-surfac...
