A set of hybrid microstrip patch and semi-circular cavity antennas is introduced. The semi-circular cavity is implemented using Half-mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide (HMSIW) technique. Different shapes of patch include rectangular, semi-circular and equilateral triangular are excited using proximity effect by the circular SIW cavity at its TM010 mode of operation. The whole structures have b...

abstract: since the field of micro electromechanical systems (mems) continues to grow, the flow in micro devices have become an area that receives a significant attention. the microscopic flows are usually characterized by the knudsen number (kn). when the characteristic size of the particle decreases down to a value comparable to the mean free path of the molecules, the continuum assumption fa...

In this paper, we present the design of four different circular bioassay platforms, which are suitable for homogeneous microwave heating, using theoretical calculations (i.e., COMSOL™ multiphysics software). Circular bioassay platforms are constructed from poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) for optical transparency between 400-800 nm, has multiple sample capacity (12, 16, 19 and 21 wells) and mod...

Circular and Radial SIW cavity resonators are proposed to enhance the performance of SIW bandstop filter. Prior to this research work, rectangular cavity resonator was used to produce bandstop response. The design of the circular and radial SIW bandstop filters are done by directly coupling circular and radial cavity resonators to the SIW line. The SIW bandstop filters are designed to operate a...

This paper is devoted to illustrate the setting up of a RFbased streak Camera (RFC). Beam deflection was accomplished by replacing the standard deflecting plates of a conventional streak camera (SC) by a RF cavity located just after the accelerating optics. The magnetic field in the cavity imparts a transverse force to incoming electrons, whose direction depends on the time at which each indivi...

Case description- A 6 month old common mynah (Acridotheres tristis) of unknown sex, weighing 200 g, was referred to Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Ferdowsi University. The mynah had history of swallowing a foreign body for one day. Clinical findings- Circular-like radiopaque foreign body was seen from thoracic inlet to distal end of the celomic cavity in the lateral and ventrodorsal radiograph...

In this paper, empirical relations for the evaluation of both the resonant frequency fr and the quality factor Q for the dominant TM010 mode of a circular substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity resonator are proposed and validated. These formulas are based on well established analytical expressions valid for the case of circular metallic cavity resonator, in which an equivalent radius Req ...
