Availability Analysis For Heterogeneous Nucleation In A Uniform Electric Field

Industrial demands for more compact heat exchangers are a motivation to find new technology features. Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) is introduced as a promising phenomenon for heat transfer enhancement mechanisms. Similar to any new technology, EHD has not been understood completely yet and requires more fundamental studies. In boiling phase change phenomena, nucleation is the dominant mechanism i...

Background digital error correction technique for pipelined analog-digital converters

This paper describes a technique for digital error correction in pipelined analog-digital converters. It makes use of a slow, high resolution ADC in conjunction with an LMS algorithm to perform error correction in the background during normal conversion. The algorithm will be shown to correct for errors due to capacitor ratio mismatch, finite amplifier gain and charge injection within the same ...

The Development of an Educational Digital Library for Human-Centered Computing Blank for Blind Review Blank for Blind Review Blank for Blind Review Blank for Blind Review

Digital libraries have great potential to improve the educational experience. There are a wide variety of such repositories, especially those that focus specifically on education. However, a survey of existing work shows relatively few that have both a narrow subject focus and ample affordances for content browsing. We present our prototype design and implementation for the HumanCentered Comput...

Quasars in the MAMBO blank field survey

Our MAMBO 1.2 mm blank field imaging survey of ∼ 0.75 sqd has uncovered four unusually bright sources, with flux densities between 10 and 90 mJy, all located in the Abell 2125 field. The three brightest are flat spectrum radio sources with bright optical and X-ray counterparts. Their mm and radio flux densities are variable on timescales of months. Their X-ray luminosities classify them as quas...
