Drop events are infrequent on Electronic Control Units (ECUs) such as powertrain control modules, however they can cause significant damage at interconnects due to high stress levels, as these ECU designs utilize heavy components onto Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) that are in return built onto larger size of electronic products in the automotive electronics. This paper introduces the efforts to develop...
Documenting a preliminary pilot study of the quantification of the reliability of recyclable elements and sub-assemblies in a precast concrete structure, this paper explores the feasibility of applying a most recently developed expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm embedded safety assessment technique. The recent push to increase sustainable practices in the construction industry can be attended...
We demonstrate the fabrication and improvements of our next generation Thermoelectric Nanowire Characterization Platform (TNCP) that is utilized to investigate the thermoelectric properties of individual nanowires to obtain the Seebeck coefficient S, electrical conductivity σ and thermal conductivity κ from the same test specimen. Only from these data, the so-called figure of merit ZT can be obtained...
We demonstrate the fabrication and initial testing of a novel micromachined Thermoelectric Nanowire Characterization Platform (TNCP) which will be applied to measure the thermoelectric properties of a single thermoelectric nanowire. The assembly of the nanowire onto the TNCP is conducted by means of dielectrophoresis (DEP) in combination with a controlled deposition and evaporation of a liquid sample...
