In the lumped-model approximation, ESL is represented by an ideal inductor (Lesl) in series with the ideal capacitor (Cnom) representing the device’s nominal capacitance value. The relevance of ESL to capacitor selection is primarily its effect on AC response. As the lumped model suggests, r...
Data lead to sorting, and data get lumped into clusters. Find ways during the design process to reduce the discrimination that will come from that sorting and clustering process. The ‘Do no harm’ approach is key. Practitioners and designers should also be wary of the automation of ...
The convergence of heat transfer analyses with temperature-dependent conductivity using linear brick or quadrilateral elements is improved. Symmetric modeling using cohesive elements is now available inAbaqus/Standard. Furthermore: You can specify a unit system in the model to use when translating to ot...
The justice system wants to save money and time by using sentencing algorithms. Yet the biases in their algorithms can cause serious harm in multiple ways. (See this 2016 report from ProPublica). The problem with these commercial algorithms is that they are opaque and the biases in them are ...
That’s a lot of hard living lumped into one dried out rhinoceros of a manThat’s a spunky haircut I bet she’s in a band or somethingGuys like that act as if the world owes them something but somewhere along the way they stop trying and start complaining Gals like that are always ...
The vast majority of microorganisms live and grow in aggregated forms such as biofilms and flocs (“planktonic biofilms”). This mode of existence is lumped in the somewhat inexact but generally accepted expression “biofilm”. The common feature...
Since the original discovery ofD. polymorphain 1769 (Pallas,1771) the systematics and evolution of Dreissenidae have been revised multiple times with new genera and species being described, split, and lumped (reviewed in Andrusov,1897; Mordukhai-Boltovskoi,1960; Logvinenko & Starobogatov,1968...
heating systemsuse boilers to heat water and circulators to move the heated water through pipes under your floors. The heat then radiates upward into your living space. Technically, baseboard heat and steam radiators also use radiant heat, so they are sometimes lumped into this type of system....
