Cross-Entropy Method (CEM) is a gradient-free direct policy search method, which has greater stability and is insensitive to hyperparameter tuning. CEM bears similarity to population-based evolutionary methods, but, rather than using a population it uses a distribution over candidate solutions (policies in our case). Usually, a natural...

With the development of 5G communication technology and the rise of power semiconductors, the switching frequency of the circuit keeps increasing, which pushes for miniaturization of power modules and related components. Therefore, in this paper, a one-step molding technology was proposed for a DC/DC buck converter power module. We proposed a...

Silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial process is a key step in the fabrication of power devices, and the temperature field inside the reactor chamber plays an essential role in this process. In this paper, the temperature field in the horizontal chemical-vapor-deposition reactor chamber used for growing homo-epitaxial 4H-SiC material is studied using...

A fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP) with an embedded redistribution layer (RDL) via interconnection reduces the size, thermal resistance, and parasitic inductance of power module packaging. In this study, the effect of the RDL via size on the reliability of a FOPLP SiC MOSFET power module was investigated. To improve the thermal management...

In this work, we explore simultaneous designs of materials selection and structural optimization. As the material selection turns out to be a discrete process that finds the optimal distribution of materials over the design domain, it cannot be performed with common gradient-based optimization methods. In this paper, material selection is...

This letter presents a convenient approach based on the two-port kQ-product theory to analyze the influence of interwinding capacitive coupling on the efficiency of the transformer. It is demonstrated that a transformer with proper size can benefit from the interwinding capacitive coupling to maximize its efficiency at a desired frequency....

In a 54 m<sup>3</sup> large-scale penicillin fermentor, the cells experience substrate gradient cycles at the timescales of global mixing time about 20–40 s. Here, we used an intermittent feeding regime (IFR) and a two-compartment reactor (TCR) to mimic these substrate gradients at laboratory-scale continuous cultures. The IFR was applied to...

Cyber-physical systems embed software into the physical world. They appear in a wide range of applications such as smart grids, robotics, and intelligent manufacturing. Cyber-physical systems have proved resistant to modeling due to their intrinsic complexity arising from the combination of physical and cyber components and the interaction...

In this paper, tin oxidation (SnO x )/tin-sulfide (SnS) heterostructures are synthesized by the post-oxidation of liquid-phase exfoliated SnS nanosheets in air. We comparatively analyzed the NO2 gas response of samples with different oxidation levels to study the gas sensing mechanisms. The results show that the samples oxidized at 325 °C are...

Ultrasonic wedge bonding of aluminum (Al) wires is a widely applied interconnect technology for power electronic packaging. The joint quality of the wedge bonding is mainly affected by the process parameters and material properties. Inappropriate process parameters will lead to failure modes such as chip surface pit, metal layer peeling off,...

Particle tracers are sometimes used to track sources and sinks of riverine particulate and contaminant transport. A potentially new particle tracer is ~200 nm sized superparamagnetic silica encapsulated DNA (SiDNAFe). The main objective of this research was to understand and quantify the settling and aggregation behaviour of SiDNAFe in river...
