DRAFT 2 CMI-MDP Programme 1 Introduction This dictionary/glossary has not been developed as a definative work but as a useful reference book for engi- neering students to search when looking for the meaning of a word/phrase. It has been compiled from a number of existing glossaries together with a number of local additions. Each reference has a standard layout Transistor [Elec] Where [Elec] indicates the engineering area where the definition is used and the original source, see section 1.1. In a number of cases there are multiple definitions, these have been kept to indicate the variation in use even within the same industry. The MDP project is very grateful to the compilers of the other collections for their kind permission to reuse their data, but accepts responsibility for any errors or mistranscription. Links to some of the original data sources are given in section 1.1 and the users is urged to consult these if additional information is required. 1.1 Engineering Disciplines Aerospace & thermodynamic engineering involves developing, designing, testing items related to aircraft power generating systems. • [aeroth] - general Agricultural & Food engineering involves every aspect of food production, processing, marketing, and distribution.

Since no current can flow in thermal equilibrium, this particular case isn't much interest to us in trying to create electronic devices. Therefore, in this lecture, we discuss the situations and governing equations in which a charge carrier responds under non-equilibrium conditions. Topics to be covered include: • Recombination and Generation: An increase (generation) or decrease (recombination) in charge carrier concentrations away from or towards equilibrium. (e.g. due to absorption of light) • Current Continuity: Charge conservation, applied in the context of drift/diffusion. • Minority Carrier Diffusion Equations: Minority carrier diffusion in the presence of a large majority carrier concentration. • Quasi-Fermi Levels: Treating carrier densities under non-equilibrium conditions. 2 Revisiting Equilibrium Considerations 2.1 What is Meant by Thermal Equilibrium? When we discussed equilibrium charge carrier concentrations, it was argued that the production of charge carriers was thermally activated. This was shown to be true regardless of whether or not the semiconductor was intrinsic or extrinsic. When a semiconductor is intrinsic, the thermal energy necessary for charge carrier production is the bandgap energy EG, which corresponds to the energy needed to break a Silicon-Silicon covalent bond.

  • Dynamics of Urban Centre and Concepts of Symmetry: Centroid and Weighted Mean

[email protected] Abstract. The city is a kind of complex system being capable Keywords: evolving structure, of auto-organization of its programs and adapts a principle of urban system, programmatic economy in its form generating process. A new concept of moving centre, centroid, dynamic centre in urban system, called “the programmatic weighted mean, symmetric moving centre”, can be used to represent the successive optimization, successive appearances of various programs based on collective facilities equilibrium and their potential values. The absolute central point is substituted by a magnetic field composed of several interactions among the collective facilities and also by the changing value of programs through time. The center moves continually into this interactive field. Consequently, we introduce mathematical methods of analysis such as “the centroid” and “the weighted mean” to calculate and visualize the dynamics of the urban centre. These methods heavily depend upon symmetry. We will describe and establish the moving centre from a point of view of symmetric optimization that answers the question of the evolution and successive equilibrium of the city. In order to explain and represent dynamic transformations in urban area, we tested this programmatic moving center in unstable and new urban environments such as agglomeration areas around Lausanne in Switzerland.

  • Wastewater Technology Fact Sheet: Ammonia Stripping
    United States Office of Water EPA 832-F-00-019 Environmental Protection Washington, D.C. September 2000 Agency Wastewater Technology Fact Sheet Ammonia Stripping DESCRIPTION Ammonia stripping is a simple desorption process used to lower the ammonia content of a wastewater stream. Some wastewaters contain large amounts of ammonia and/or nitrogen-containing compounds that may readily form ammonia. It is often easier and less expensive to remove nitrogen from wastewater in the form of ammonia than to convert it to nitrate-nitrogen before removing it (Culp et al., 1978). Ammonia (a weak base) reacts with water (a weak acid) to form ammonium hydroxide. In ammonia stripping, lime or caustic is added to the wastewater until the pH reaches 10.8 to 11.5 standard units which converts ammonium hydroxide ions to ammonia gas according to the following reaction(s): + - NH4 + OH 6 H2O + NH38 Source: Culp, et. al, 1978. Figure 1 illustrates two variations of ammonia FIGURE 1 TWO TYPES OF STRIPPING stripping towers, cross-flow and countercurrent.

Printed in Sweden by US-AB, Stockholm 2008 Distributor: FOOS/Structurkemi ii ABSTRACT Carbide derived carbons (CDCs) have been synthesised through chlorina- tion of VC, TiC, WC, TaC, NbC, HfC and ZrC at different temperatures. The aim of the investigation was to systematically study changes of struc- tural and adsorption properties depending on the synthesis conditions. CDCs were characterised using nitrogen and carbon dioxide adsorption, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron micros- copy, and electron energy loss spectroscopy. The studies revealed the CDCs structures to range from amorphous to ordered, from microporous to mesoporous. It was found that structural ordering and porosity can be modi- fied by: i) synthesis temperature, ii) precursor, iii) density and volume of precursor, iv) catalysts, v) incorporation of nitrogen in to carbide structure, and CDCs can be tuned up to the demanded quality. They also exhibited a high potential for methane storage. iii iv LIST OF PUBLICATIONS Paper I. Porosity development along the synthesis of carbons from metal carbides S.

  • Hydrogen Bond Assisted Adhesion in Portland Cement-Based Materials

Rossetto1,2, V. C. Pandolfelli1 1Departamento de Engenharia de Materiais - DEMa, Universidade Federal de S. Carlos - UFSCar, Rod. Washington Luiz, km 235, S. Carlos, SP 13565-590 2Instituto de Física de S. Carlos, Universidade de S. Paulo - IFSC-USP, Av. Trabalhador São-Carlense 400, S. Carlos, SP 13566-590 [email protected] Abstract Adhesion is a physical-chemical parameter able to render innovations to Portland cement-based materials. However, this concept still lacks experimental evidence to underlie further developments in this subject. This work has demonstrated how distinct substances can impart different adhesion forces after evaluating the hydration degree and the mechanical strength of non-reactive cementitious materials. The substances capable of making tridimensional hydrogen bonds, such as water, for instance, were the most effective in providing cementitious samples with improved bending strength. It implies that water is not only important because of its role in cement hydration, but also because it develops adhesion between hydrated cementitious surfaces. More than speculating the fundamental understanding on adhesion in Portland cement-based materials, the present paper intends to stimulate thinking on how to take the benefits of the water confined between the hydrated cementitious surfaces as an in-built nanoadhesive, so far little explored, but at the same time so prone to yield high performance materials. Keywords: adhesion, hydrogen bond, mechanical properties, Portland cement. Resumo Adesão é um parâmetro físico-químico que pode promover inovações em materiais à base de cimento Portland.

Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Hagg Lobland, Haley E. Definition of brittleness: Connections between mechanical and tribological properties of polymers. Doctor of Philosophy (Materials Science and Engineering), August 2008, 51 pages, 5 tables, 13 illustrations, 106 references. The increasing use of polymer-based materials (PBMs) across all types of industry has not been matched by sufficient improvements in understanding of polymer tribology: friction, wear, and lubrication. Further, viscoelasticity of PBMs complicates characterization of their behavior. Using data from micro-scratch testing, it was determined that viscoelastic recovery (healing) in sliding wear is independent of the indenter force within a defined range of load values. Strain hardening in sliding wear was observed for all materials—including polymers and composites with a wide variety of chemical structures—with the exception of polystyrene (PS). The healing in sliding wear was connected to free volume in polymers by using pressure- volume-temperature (P-V-T) results and the Hartmann equation of state. A linear relationship was found for all polymers studied with again the exception of PS. The exceptional behavior of PS has been attributed qualitatively to brittleness.
