This work describes a method to derive from measurements an accurate lumped element model of spiral integrated inductors on silicon substrate. The analysis method is based on a wideband two–port measurement of the S-parameters of the device under test and enables an accurate evaluation of the parasitic effects that limit the performance of these integrated devices.

|A new method is proposed for the transient analysis of circuits with large number of linear lumped elements and lossy coupled transmission lines, and with few mildly nonlinear terminations. The method combines the Volterra-series technique with Asymptotic Waveform Evaluation approach and corresponds to recursive analysis of a linear equivalent circuit.

In this paper a theoretical model for transient behaviour analysis of the discharge current pulse in the transversely excited atmospheric pressure CO2 laser with dielectric corona pre-ionization is presented. The laser discharge tube is modelled by a non-linear distributed RLC electric circuit. The transmission line method is applied to the non-linear distributed circuit and it is approximated ...

Inductors represent a very complex behavior especially in the field of RF techniques. Some manufacturers offer SPICE models for their inductors built up by lumped elements. The lumped element values are determined by matching the simulation model to an average of the measurements. This leads to curious numbers, and if the model is used in a simulation tool, all these values have to be adjusted ...

Nowadays, physical models of head used in pedestrian head impact standard tests are not accurate enough to represent the human head behavior and to assess the head injury risk in case of impact in a realistic way. In order to remove this technological barrier, the Strasbourg University Finite Elements Head Model (SUFEHM) is used in conjunction with a lumped model of the impact point at bonnet l...
