Verma, Amrit Shankar (author), Yan, Jiquan (author), Hu, Weifei (author), Jiang, Zhiyu (author), Shi, Wei (author), Teuwen, Julie J.E. (author)A fiber-reinforced composite wind turbine blade (WTB) is exposed to numerous impact threats during its service life causing damages that can be detrimental to its structural integrity. Currently, impact loads are not considered during blade design, so high safety factors are introduced, which result in a conservative design. However, as wind...review 2023

An, X. (author), Pan, S. (author), Jiang, H. (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)CMOS frequency references based on RC oscillators are usually preferred over bulky crystals in loT applications [1-5]. However, due to the process spread and finite temperature coefficient (TC) of most on-chip resistors, RC oscillators require trimming and temperature compensation to achieve decent accuracy. Enabled by high-resolution...conference paper 2023
