Kinetic inductances of superconducting nanostrips with a meander pattern are theoretically investigated based on the London model, and effect current crowding at turns is considered. The complex approach developed for analytical investigation kinetic inductance thin $d<\lambda$ narrow $w\ll \lambda^2/d$ strips, where $d$ strip thickness, $w$ width, $\lambda$ penetration depth. We show that dist...

The nose is a common site for basal and squamous cell carcinomas. Surgical excision can leave a defect that is appropriate for reconstruction with full thickness skin grafting. Tie-over dressings have gained popularity in this setting. We propose that steri-strips alone provide the necessary support to facilitate excellent graft take.

Micromagnetic simulation of domain wall motion in thin, narrow strips leads to a simplified analytical model. The model accurately predicts the same domain wall velocity as full micromagnetic calculations, including dependence on strip width, thickness, and magnitude of applied field pulse. Domain wall momentum and retrograde domain wall motion are both observed and explained by the analytical ...

Abstract: The effect of phase development on peel strength of alumina-copper metalized joint has been investigated. The alumina-copper joint was prepared in three stages. The alumina substrate was, first, metalized at 1500°C in H2-furnace by a new formulation. In the second step, a nickel layer was electroplated on the metalized layer with approximately 10µm thickness. Finally, copper strip...

This paper has presented the characteristic impedance and signal propagation delay time for both surface and embedded microstrip lines that comprise a conducting strip line with width w, thickness t of conductivity σ, on a substrate of thickness h, relative permittivity εr, relative permeability sub, on top of an infinite grounded electrode. The strips couples to the ground plane. It is observ...

Rambouillet X Finn crossbred wether lambs were evaluated for differences in longissimus muscle cross-sectional area and overlaying subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness resulting from the use of the beta-agonist clenbuterol. Treatment groups received 0 and 2 ppm clenbuterol in the diet for approximately 40 d prior to slaughter. Longissimus muscle cross-sectional area and fat depth over the 12th...
