Double-sided heat dissipation numerical modeling of an embedded half-bridge power module with multiple chips

Thermal management has always played a significant role in power module design. Double-sided heat dissipation is more efficient at transferring heat than the traditional package. Although there are several thermal modeling approaches to power modules, the application of the numerical models, which are computationally fast and accurate, has...

GazeNeRF: 3D-Aware Gaze Redirection with Neural Radiance Fields

We propose GazeNeRF, a 3D-aware method for the task of gaze redirection. Existing gaze redirection methods operate on 2D images and struggle to generate 3D consistent results. Instead, we build on the intuition that the face region and eyeballs are separate 3D structures that move in a coordinated yet independent fashion. Our method leverages...

Machine learning assisted early anomaly detection of LEDs with spectral power distribution modeling

Spectral power distribution (SPD) is the radiation power intensity at different wavelengths, containing the most basic photometric and colorimetric performance of the illuminant, which is able to predict the lifetime of LEDs. This paper proposes an SPD model assisted by machine learning algorithms to detect the early failure of white LEDs. The...

Drug Trafficking in Relation to Global Shipping Network

This paper aims to understand to what extent the amount of drug (e.g., cocaine) trafficking per country can be explained and predicted using the global shipping network. We propose three distinct network approaches, based on topological centrality metrics, Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible spreading process and a flow optimization model of...

Analysis of Metallization Effects of Pressure-Assisted Cu Nanoparticle Sintering on DBC by Experiment and Nanoscale Simulation

Substrate metallization is a crucial factor affecting the mechanical properties of sintered nanoparticles in microelectronics applications, as it is essential for ensuring good adhesion between the substrate and the sintered material. In this study, we investigated the influence of metallization on pressure-assisted nanocopper sintering and...

Investigation on Transient Failure Mode of Asymmetric Trench Gate SiC MOSFET Under Single-Pulse Avalanche Stress

In this article, the avalanche withstand capability and transient failure model of commercial 1200 V asymmetric trench gate SiC MOSFETs are investigated by experiment and simulation under single-pulse unclamped inductive switching (UIS) conditions. The limiting avalanche current and limiting avalanche energy of the device are determined by...

A 2m-Range 711uW Body Channel Communication Transceiver Featuring Dynamically-Sampling Bias-Free Interface Front End

Body Channel Communication (BCC) offers a low-loss signal transmission medium for ultra-low-power wearable devices on human body [1]. However, the effective communication range on human body is limited to less than 1m in the state-of-the-art BCC transceivers [2], where the signal loss at the interface of body surface and BCC receiver remains to...

Case-driven category analysis of 3D building property

Many immigrants from rural areas pour into urban areas, especially in China, and urban development faces the challenges to provide sufficient space for citizens’ acommodation, works and social contacts. So 3D development and use of land and city space become the reality with various complex buildings and constructions with modern architecture...
