[1] Levees are the primary elements of self-formed submarine channels, yet little is know about their morphodynamics. We present field observations of static levee morphology and stratigraphy in addition to laboratory experiments that link levee morphodynamics to turbidity current flow properties. These observations are used to motivate a levee growth model. Using a three-dimensional seismic vo...

This paper presents a channel preemption model for vertical handoff in heterogeneous WLAN (wireless LAN) embedded cellular networks. The novelty of this paper is right in that a newly initiated mobile node (MN) outside the WLAN coverage can preempt the channels occupied by an MN inside the WLAN coverage when the cellular channels are completely used up. The channel preempted MN is forced to swi...

We propose and demonstrate a two dimensional/three dimensional hybrid channel AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) structure with a flat transconductance profile using polarization-induced channel engineering. A quasi three dimensional electron gas profile with 5–6 nm of vertical channel depth was formed by grading the channel region linearly from GaN to Al0.15Ga0.85 N over 50 Å. ...

Graphene has attracted considerable interest for future electronics, but the absence of a bandgap limits its direct applicability in transistors and logic devices. Recently, other layered materials such as molybdenum disulphide (MoS(2)) have been investigated to address this challenge. Here, we report the vertical integration of multi-heterostructures of layered materials for the fabrication of...

It is well known that lower channel profits are achieved in the bilateral (manufacturer-re­ seller) monopoly if manufacturer and reseller independently optimize their respective profits: They take each other's decisions as given i.e., adopt decision rules that ignore their influence on the other channel member. Higher profits are achieved if they coordinate their profit maximiz­ ing decisions. ...

An experimental and numerical study of free convection heat transfer from a channel consisting of a vertical sinusoidal wavy surface and a vertical flat plate has been carried out. The vertical wavy surface was maintained at a constant temperature, while the flat plate is adiabatic. A Mach-Zehnder Interferometer was used to determine the local heat transfer coefficients of sinusoidal wavy surfa...

The ;400 km2 Clearwater River basin, located on the Pacific flank of the actively uplifting Olympic Mountains of western Washington State, contains a well-preserved flight of Holocene fluvial terraces. We have collected a large data set of numeric ages from these terraces that is used to elucidate the geomorphic, fluvial, active tectonic, and climatic processes that operate at Holocene spatial ...

We present a polynomial time improvement of the linear channel pin assignment LCPA algorithms presented by Cai and Wong in 1990. We solve the LCPA problem according to minimum channel density under a special priority schedule subject to vertical constraints and ux. The priority driven linear channel pin assignment algorithm (PDCPA) reduces the channel height by an average of 17 % without increa...
