Historically based on the transfer of ancestral know-how, the art of carpentry changed considerably at the beginning of the 21st century with the arrival on the market of engineered wood products (EWP) and computer numerically controlled machines (CNC). Th ...
The paper aims at defining a methodology to evaluate the lightning performance of a system of overhead distribution lines. As is well known, the evaluation of the lightning performance relies generally on a Monte Carlo approach that generates many differen ...

This paper shows SPICE simulation results of active guard ring structures which are typically employed in Smart Power ICs. Active guard rings act as barriers limiting the flow of minority carriers injected into the substrate toward sensitive circuits. The ...
A method for achieving a representation of an object within a data structure for a Computer Aided Design system employing a Medial Axis Transformation (MAT), the representation of the object comprising a set of adjacent bounded surface elements called MAT ...
This paper presents an extended model for transient and ac circuit-level simulation of minority carriers propagation through the substrate of smart power integrated circuits (ICs). A p-n junction and a diffusion resistor with capacitive components are prop ...
