In order to introduce magnetic conductive thin plates in quasi-static PEEC method, a coupling with the integrodifferential method is proposed. This coupling enables to take the advantage of each method. The complex conductor geometry is achieved thanks to the PEEC method. The modeling of thin plates is taken into account thanks to an integro-differential one.

In the present work, the design and the environmental conditions of a micromachined thermal accelerometer, based on convection effect, are discussed and studied in order to understand the behavior of the frequency response evolution of the sensor. It has been theoretically and experimentally studied with different detector widths, pressure and gas nature. Although this type of sensor has alread...

AbsrrmrWe propose an estimation method of crosstalk noise for generic RC trees. The proposed method derives an analytic waveform of crosstalk noise in a 2-7r equivalent circuit. The peak voltage is calculated from the closed-form expression, and the crosstalk induced delay is estimated using the derived noise waveform. We also develop a transformation method from generic RC trees with branches ...

This paper describes an original approach for determining independent loops needed for mesh-current analysis in order to solve circuit equation system arising in inductive Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) approach. Based on the combined used of several simple algorithms, it considerably speed-up the loops search and enables the building of an associated matrix system with an improved c...

The accurate simulation of the electromagnetic behaviour of interconnects and on-chip inductors is becoming more and more important for chip designs. For this purpose, we investigate the use of the electric field integral equation, which can be used to construct a full-wave electromagnetic model. To facilitate the combined analysis of the chip’s circuit and the electromagnetic behaviour, the el...

We present equivalent circuit models of skeletal muscle tissue for the directions parallel and transverse to the fiber. The parallel model is based on a distributed parameter equivalent circuit approach where the tissue between the electrodes is divided into small segments, each of which is represented by an equivalent circuit. Parameters for the equivalent circuits are calculated from the elec...

Electromagnetic solvers based on the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) approach have proven to be well suited for the solution of combined circuit and EM problems. The inclusion of all types of Spice circuit elements is possible. Due to this, the approach has been used in many different tools. Most of these solvers have been based on a rectangular or Manhattan representation of the geom...

Silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays were produced by electroless method on polycrystalline Si substrate, in HF/ AgNO3 solution. Although the monocrystalline silicon wafer is commonly utilized as a perfect substrate, polycrystalline silicon as a low cost substrate was used in this work for photovoltaic applications. In order to study the influence of etching time (which affects the SiNWs length) on d...

Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) methods, for solving electromagnetic problem ,uses two discretizations, to volume cells for resistive-inductive partitions and to surface cells for capacitive partitions. Three-dimensional (3-D) problem geometry is partitioned to hexahedral volume cells. Around outer surface of these cells, with half-cell shift, surface cells will take place. When FastC...
