Magnesium alloys exhibit complex deformation related mechanical behavior, viz. plastic anisotropy, tension-compression asymmetry and premature failure. Their origins are in the underlying heterogeneous deformation due to dislocation slip and deformation twinning on different crystallographic systems. The twin formations lead to microstructure evolution, strain localization and initiation of sho...

In this paper we describe an implementation and modeling of a novel fatigue monitoring sensor based on integration of piezoelectric transduction with floating gate avalanche injection. The miniaturized sensor enables continuous battery-less monitoring and failure predictions of biomechanical implants. Measured results from a fabricated prototype in a 0.5μm CMOS process demonstrate excellent agr...

Usage of Gis Technology in Civil Engineering

GIS technology is more and more used even in the technical practice of a construction industry. In the preparatory phase of the construction, the problems of a spatial positioning (location) of the construction have to be solved jointly with the checking of the feasibility and purposefulness, the traffic projects are worked out, and the alternative, more detailed solutions of technical problems...
