This work focuses on understanding the electronic properties of materials to enhance performance Tunnel Field Effect Transistor (TFET) through Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulations. Material selection prefers a p-type material with in-plane high density state (DOS) (and low out-of-plane effective mass, m*, where defined for many layer systems), and valence band maxima (VBM) energy stacked...

With the complex of the tunnel construction, tunnel construction become more and more difficult, in order to ensure the safety of tunnel construction, the paper introduced a kind of tunnel construction monitoring system based on sensor. The system achieves the real-time monitoring of tunnel construction environment including temperature and humidity, gas concentration, dust concentration, locat...

Tophaceous gout is a recognized cause of carpal tunnel syndrome. Of 2649 carpal tunnel releases, 15 hands in 13 patients were identified with tophaceous gout in the carpal tunnel. The incidence of tophaceous gout in the carpal tunnel was 0.6%. Twelve of 13 patients were male, and 8 of 10 patients with a history of gout developed carpal tunnel syndrome despite adequate medical treatment. Thus, c...

Carpal tunnel syndrome is diagnosed by clinical symptoms, Tinel's sign, Phalen's test and electromyography. Carpal tunnel pressure measurement can also aid in the precise identification of excessive pressure sites that indicate locations for release. In this study, pressure measurements made during endoscopic carpal tunnel release at 5 points were significantly higher anywhere in the carpal tun...

This paper develops a dynamic model of mismatch. Workers and jobs are randomly assigned to labor markets. Each labor market clears at each instant but some have more workers than jobs, hence unemployment, and some have more jobs than workers, hence vacancies. As workers and jobs move between labor markets, some unemployed workers find vacant jobs and some employed workers lose or leave their jo...

A FOUNDATION FOR TUNNEL-COMPLEX PROTOCOLS Alwyn E. Goodloe Carl A. Gunter Tunnel-complex protocols construct different tunnel topologies by directing tunnelestablishment protocols to set up pair-wise tunnels between different nodes, where the resulting tunnel complex satisfies some security requirement such as negotiating a defense in depth. Such protocols ease the burden on network managers de...

Endoscopic carpal tunnel release is a controversial procedure used in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome. Although endoscopic carpal tunnel release is associated with less incisional pain and faster recovery time than the open carpal tunnel release, opponents of endoscopic carpal tunnel release suggest that its benefits are outweighed by its higher complication rates from median nerve tran...
