Mechanical loss and magnetoelectric response in magnetostrictive/interdigitated-electrode/piezoelectric laminated resonators

The Effect of Substrate Clamping on Laminated Magnetoelectric Composite

A theory model was established to calculate the magnetoelectric voltage coefficient of piezoelectric/piezomagnetic laminated composites on silicon or magnesium oxide substrates. The magnetoelectric voltage coefficient is calculated as function of interface coupling factor k, volume ratio of piezoelectrics to piezomagnetic, and volume ratio of substrates to composite. It was found that the magne...

Mechanical quantum resonators

We describe the design for a solid-state quantum computational architecture based on the integration of GHz-frequency mechanical resonators with Josephson phase qubits, which have the potential for demonstrating a variety of singleand multi-qubit operations critical to quantum computation. The computational qubits are eigenstates of large-area, current-biased Josephson junctions. Two or more qu...

Aluminum-laminated Panels: Physical and Mechanical Properties

Aluminum lamination was performed to improve the physical and mechanical properties of several wood-based composite panels. The panels were aluminum-laminated on two faces in a hot press at 689 kPa and 120 °C for 6 min. Four types of wood-based composites were used as cores, and aluminum 3003 alloy sheets were used for face laminations. Polyurethane adhesive ensured bonding strength between the...

Comparing of Peanut Harvesting Loss in Mechanical and Manual Methods

The main purpose of this study is measuring and comparing of peanut harvesting loss in manual and mechanical methods in addition to economic analysis of them. Hence, a field was selected in Astaneh-Ashrafiyeh and divided to three different plots. Two plots were applied to measure mechanical harvesting loss and third one was applied for manual harvesting loss. According to test results, the lowe...
