Microwave hyperthermia is an effective non-ionizing heating method for tumor sensitization. Therapy planning is necessary to achieve optimal hyperthermia treatment. This study aims to simulate two microwave antennas with different geometrical ...

In this work, we propose a path integral random walk (PIRW) solver, the first accurate stochastic method for steady-state thermal analysis with mixed boundary conditions, especially involving Fourier heat transfer Robin boundary conditions. We ...

The project-driven teaching concept is increasingly recognized by universities. The circuit practice course is no longer a single circuit design and welding, but is driven by the realization of the specific parameter requirements of the project. The ...

The temperature distribution of electronic equipment has been simulated with CFD software Fluent. The results show that in the closed shell the temperature above heating elements is higher than that of below them, and the maximum temperature is 342 K(69 ...

Due to the short die-to-die distance and inferior heat dissipation capability, Face-to-Face (F2F) boned 3D ICs are often considered to be vulnerable to electrical and thermal coupling. This study is the first to quantify the impacts of the electro-...

Thermal analysis of integrated circuits (IC) is a high performance computing problem because the nanoscale spatiotemporal features of the problem result in a large discrete problem. In previous works, compact models of ICs were introduced to speed up ...

Out of the many options available for thermal simulation of digital electronic systems, those based on solving an RC equivalent circuit of the thermal network are the most popular choice in the EDA community, as they provide a reasonable tradeoff ...

In this article, we propose an efficient finite-element-based (FE-based) method for both steady and transient thermal analyses of high-performance integrated circuits based on the hierarchical matrix (H-matrix) representation. H-matrix has been shown to ...

Power delivery to the tier farthest away from the package in 3D VLSI is challenging. This is because the current provided by the package on the bottom is (1) first used by other tiers before it reaches the top, and (2) delivered using extremely small-...

In this brief, we propose an efficient parallel finite difference-based thermal simulation algorithm for 3-D-integrated circuits (ICs) using generalized minimum residual method (GMRES) solver on CPU-graphic processing unit (GPU) platforms. First, the new ...

An electromagnetic railgun is one of the applications of electromagnetic launchers, which are devices used to accelerate projectiles to velocities exceeding those attained with conventional propelling systems. A magnetic field is generated when current ...

Full-chip power ground electro-migration assessment requires a power map, thermal map and checks for IR drops exceeding the design specifications. This paper provides a survey of the three main computation operations required to get these information.

This paper presents an application-driven algorithm for Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM) for the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). For efficient design of such a DTM policy, we perform an offline thermal analysis of an HEVC encoder and demonstrate ...

We consider a real-time system running periodic tasks with probabilistic execution times. In this system, temperature behavior of the processor is affected by the jobs characteristics and scheduling algorithm. In turn, the processor temperature affects ...
