in this paper, penetration of high velocity impact of 4340 steel and tungsten carbide projectiles with specific shapes in to ceramic armor that includes 10 mm alumina (95%) is considered analytically and simulated with ls-dyna software. bernoulli equation used to consider the penetration velocity in ceramics, shows that the penetration is better and easier by increasing projectile density. the ...

The ballistic response of the high strength, low alloy (HSLA-100) steel at ambient and temperatures of -400°C, -800°C and -1960°C is investigated in this work. Lambert-jonas equation is used to fit the experimental results into a curve. The effect of quenching on ballistic behavior of HSLA-100 is also studied. The experiments are conducted on 3mm thick rectangular specimens impacted by blunt ti...

We present an analytical model for nanoscale MOSFETs capable to describe the transition from drift-diffusion to ballistic transport. We start from a closed-form model of ballistic Fully Depleted SOI (FDSOI) and Double Gate (DG) MOSFETs with non degenerate statistics, and, on the basis of the Büttiker interpretation of dissipative transport in terms of virtual voltage probes, we show that a long...

Rumsey, D.W. M.S., Purdue University, December 2001, Electrical Characterization of Bulk MOSFETS in Terms of Backscattering Coefficients. Major Professor: Mark S. Lundstrom As the end of the roadmap for semiconductor devices is approached, channel lengths are shrinking, and drain current demands are remaining high. Current day devices operate in a quasi-ballistic regime. In order to assess devi...

Central limit theorems for random walks in quenched random environments have attracted plenty of attention in the past years. More recently still, finer local limit theorems — yielding a Gaussian density multiplied by a highly oscillatory modulating factor — for such models have been obtained. In the one-dimensional nearest-neighbor case with i.i.d. transition probabilities, local limits of uni...

Multiple scattering of waves in disordered media is a nightmare whether it is for detection or imaging purposes. So far, the best approach to get rid of multiple scattering is optical coherence tomography. This basically combines confocal microscopy and coherence time gating to discriminate ballistic photons from a predominant multiple scattering background. Nevertheless, the imaging-depth rang...
