ABSTRACT
MOEMS based micro-sized pressure sensor can be developed to detect even
sub-micron range dimension change using the photonic crystal. The applied pressure on the
object will change the dimension of the waveguide carved in the photonic crystal. As a result,
this change in spacing can alter the propagation feature of electromagnetic waves that pass
through them that is changing the transmission spectrum. So, this change can directly be
mapped to pressure on the observed object. In this paper, the pressure sensor using photonic
crystal has been modeled and analyzed.
Analysis and simulations of optimal geometry shapes of the 4 and 9 nano hole ...IJECEIAES
The possibility to limit and manipulate photons at nanometer scales attracted a lot of interest for exciting applications from subwavelength in laser, biosensors, biomedical and optoelectronics devices, the sensor optical properties, however; are complex due to two resonances through propagating and localized surface plasmons. The optical properties of surface plasmons (SPs) at the resonant wavelength is depending on the geometrical nanostructure of materials. In this article, we used different geometry of nanoholes array, 4 and 9 nanoholes array in a metallic film gold nanoparticle with different thickness (20,50,100) nm on SiO2 substrate with refractive index 1.46, we designed two different geometries; 4- holes: hole radius r1=200 nm, period p1=600 nm; and 9- holes: r2=100 nm, period p2=300 nm. Transmission and reflection spectrum have been calculated and simulated by FDTD Lumerical program. From results are observed the effect of thickness is interesting, transmission is increased at (t=20nm) for two arrays. Furthermore, the number of hole and its area has an influence on optical transmission and other parameters (E, H, Ref) which are characteristics of design of metallic nanostructure. We can see that there is a peak value of the wavelength at 519 nm approximately to 73% strong light transmission with 4-NHA in the other hand wavelength of 519 nm transmission is 45% with 9-NHA. strong light transmission is hopeful for many applications (biomedical devices, nanoantennas and laser optical fiber).

RESULTS OF FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS FOR INTERLAMINAR FRACTURE REINFORCED THERM...MSEJjournal1
The double cantilever beam (DCB) is widely used for fracture toughness testing and it has become popular
for opening-mode (mode I) delamination testing of laminated composites. Delamination is a crack that
forms between the adjacent plies of a composite laminate at the brittle polymer resin. This study was
conducted to emphasize the need for a better understanding of the DCB specimen of different fabric
reinforced systems (carbon fibers) with a thermoplastic matrix (EP, PEI), by using the extended finite
element method (X-FEM). It is well known that in fabric reinforced composites fracture mechanisms
include microcracking in front of the crack tip, fiber bridging and multiple cracking, and both contribute
considerably to the high interlaminar fracture toughness measured. That means, the interlaminar fracture
toughness of a composite is not controlled by a single material parameter, but is a result of a complex
interaction of resin, fiber and interface properties.

In this study, using Harfang Code 32 device, the slag catcher pipelines in one of the South Pars phases
were tested. In radiography method of these lines, no clear defect was observed in radiographic films due
to the high thickness of 40 mm. However, marvelous results were obtained using advanced ultrasonic.
Review and analysis of the results will result in high potential of three-dimensional ultrasonic method in
identifying defects in pipelines with high thicknesses and preventing financial and life-threatening risks

In this paper, a developed three-dimensional Molecular Dynamics (MD) model for AFM-based
nanomachining is applied to study mechanical indentation and scratching at the nanoscale. The
correlation between the machining conditions, including applied force, depth, tip speed, and
defect mechanism in substrate/workpiece is investigeted. The simulations of nanoscratching
process are performed on different crystal orientations of single-crystal gold substrate, Au(100),
Au(110), and Au(111). The material deformation and deformed geometry are extracted from the
final locations of atoms, which are displaced by the rigid indenter. The simulation also allows
for the prediction of forces at the interface between the indenter and substrate. Material
properties including modulus of elasticity and hardness are estimated. It is found that properties
vary significantly at the nanoscale. In addition to the modeling, an AFM is used to conduct
actual indentation and scratching at the nanoscale, and provide measurements to which the MD
simulation predictions are compared. Due to computational time limitation, the predicted forces
obtained from MD simulation only compares well qualitatively with the experimental results.

Natural ageing of stabilized and unustabilized ldpe films used as greenhouses...eSAT Journals
Abstract
This article focuses on the study of both stabilized and unstabilized low-density polyethylene films aged under natural weathering in the middle of Morocco (Sidi Kacem city). The study was undertaken on three samples for each LDPE films: a new sample taken as reference; another exposed to outdoor weathering for one year; and a sample exposed for two years.
The outdoor exposure effects were followed by analysis of the total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). This technique provides information on the main chemical functions and evaluates the internal causes of natural ageing of our samples. The infrared spectra show the formation of hydroperoxides -O-OH, carbonyls >C=O, aliphatic esters R-(CO)-O-R, ether R-O-R, vinyl C=C, vinylidene >C=CH2 and trans-vinylene RHC=CRH in the amorphous regions. These compounds lead to initiate the mechanism of photo-oxidation of the unstabilized LDPE samples. Therefore, the increase in the formation of oxidation products into the aged samples (LDPEUS) indicates an accelerated degradation of these latter on climatic factors (UV, O2, humidity, rain ...). The UV stabilizer (free radicals scavengers) added to the formulation of LDPE films can delay the attack of the amorphous phase and prevent the formation of compounds that can cause and accelerate photo-oxidation. The results obtained by the infrared have been confirmed by observing the morphology of the samples with scanning electron microscopy technology (SEM).

Design of a Selective Filter based on 2D Photonic Crystals Materials IJECEIAES
Two dimensional finite differences temporal domain (2D-FDTD) numerical simulations are performed in cartesian coordinate system to determine the dispersion diagrams of transverse electric (TE) of a two-dimension photonic crystal (PC) with triangular lattice. The aim of this work is to design a filter with maximum spectral response close to the frequency 1.55 μm. To achieve this frequency, selective filters PC are formed by combination of three waveguides W 1 K A wherein the air holes have of different normalized radii respectively r 1 /a=0.44, r 2 /a=0.288 and r /a= 0.3292 (a: is the periodicity of the lattice with value 0.48 μm). Best response is obtained when we insert three small cylindrical cavities (with normalized radius of 0.17) between the two half-planes of photonic crystal strong lateral confinement.
Design and manufacturing of iris waveguide filters for satellite communicationTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
We propose in this paper, two bandpass filters in waveguide technology having rectangular symmetrical discontinuities with a half-radius r, designed and operating respectively in the X-Band (9-11.5) GHz and C-Band (3.5-5.5) GHz. These filters consists of eight irises placed symmetrically respectively on standard rectangular waveguides WR90 and WR229 in which resonant irises are inserted. These irises are used to couple the sections very strongly in this filter, which allows the bandwidth to be increased and the matching to be controlled. The comparison between the numerical and electromagnetic results, which we obtained for the filters, constitutes a means of validation of computer simulation technology (CST) environment and Mician for the design of the other circuit elements in the various frequency bands. We observed excellent consistency between the simulation curves and those of the measurements. The results obtained are promising and pave the way for the use of these structures in the fields of telecommunications.

Due to the development of microfluidic systems biomedical microelectromechanical systems (BioMEMS) for magnetic labelling detection by magnetic microbeads circling in microfluidic channels, we used the magnetic field created by microcoils. The magnetic field associated with the electric current, but with negatively affects if its value increases too much. Handling bio-species in the microfluidic chip requires that the temperature maintained to keep the cells to prevent their destruction. In this paper we have described the spiral square coil design of different structures to produce an effective magnetic flux density. The simulation of the magnetic flux density is carried out with the help of the COMSOL software. We have presented an optimization of the geometric parameters of the microcoil for a better performance and a miniaturization of the structure with copper wire section S=25 µm2 and inter-wire space a=5 µm. We have also developed this microcoil by adding a ferromagnetic core to the inner center, the results obtained in this work shown that the magnetic flux density increases around 1.07 times in Bx and 1.45 times in Bz. This new approach in designing a microcoil allows to obtaining a fast trapping of the microbeads and a highly sensitive biological element detection and avoiding increase heat ratio in microfluidic systems.
GEOMETRY AND CHARACTERIZATION OF LOW INDEX SILICON MICRO RING RESONATORSoptljjournal
An optical ring resonator is indeed a series of waveguides in which a closed loop coupled with some sort of input and output of light is at least one. The consequence of the index difference on dielectric waveguide characteristics such as single-mode process, losses, efficiency of fiber to waveguide coupling, minimum bending radius, hybridity mode, birefringence, polarization effects, repeatability and stability, integration
size, realizable circuits, technical constraints and usable materials is indeed very significant for study. The purpose of this article is to analyze the effect of the features of the waveguide with regard to the index correlation and to explore the difficulties. This article assesses the effect of the intensity index on the characteristics of the dielectric waveguide, such as the single-mode device, losses, technical constraints and materials available. This work is an approximation for the design of optical waveguides, so that by lowering the silicon index, we can achieve versatility
Few-mode optical fiber surface plasmon resonance sensor with controllable ra...IJECEIAES
A few-mode optical fiber surface plasmon resonance sensor with graphene layer is investigated, firstly, with the aim of studying the behavior of the guided modes and, secondly, with the aim of determining the range of the measured refractive index for some selected few-mode fibers. The results show that as the number of modes propagated in the fiber increases, the maximum sensitivity of a particular mode decreases while the range of the measured refractive index of that mode increases. Also, it is shown that the range can be easily tuned with sensitivity consideration by only adjusting the operating wavelength without any modification of the sensor, which is desirable from practical point of view. In addition, it is shown that the core diameter of the fiber should be chosen according to sensitivity and range needing, where a compromise between them must be found. The study presented in this paper can significantly help in developing new sensing techniques, such as multi-parameter sensing, by monitoring the various responses of the modes. Also, it can be used to customize the sensor for specific sensing applications in various fields, especially to measure refractive indices in subranges of 1.38 to 1.46.

This paper presents a technique to determine the Dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the building dielectric materials using propagation constant measurements. The material sample is loaded in an X-band (8.5GHz12.5GHz) rectangular waveguide and its two port S-parameters are measured as a function of frequency using a Vector Network Analyzer without TRL Calibration. The results obtained from samples of dielectric materials (Air, Cellular concrete and Wood) on the X-band frequencies show the validity of the proposed technique to determine the complex permittivity of the building dielectric materials on the X-band frequencies.
Design of the Probe Sensor for the TDR Soil Moisture Sensor SystemIJLT EMAS
The probe sensor is of two parallel plates type which is used to determine the moisture content of the soil. The probe sensor is connected to a resistance to time period converter circuit of the TDR soil moisture sensor system whose output time period depends upon the resistance of the soil which in turn depends upon the moisture content of the soil acting as medium between the plates of the probe sensor. The TDR probe sensor is designed and simulated using the Integrated Electro software in order to determine the effects of the parameters like length, thickness and gap between the plates on electric field and energy density. The simulation results are used to predict and determine the geometry of the probe sensor, the materials that should be used in making the plates of the probe sensor and coating the plates of the probe sensor for reducing the effects of the fringing field and noise in the environment.
DETERMINING METAL SURFACE WAVINESS PARAMETERS AND HEIGHT LIQUID SURFACE WAVE ...IAEME Publication
The work is concentrated on an experimental approach to determine surface waviness of metal and height of liquid surface wave. It is based on illuminated those surfaces with a highly coherent light such as laser, and observed movement of center of speckle pattern which were gained from the movement surfaces by using tracking program. The movements of the speckle pattern work on carries important information about those surfaces. Two triangulation methods employed to evaluate metal waviness and liquid surface wave. The first method apply on a solid material (metal) and taking a video directly from the reflected surface, the second method apply on the liquid material (oil ) and taking a video after reflected from screen. The methods used here have a great potential for precise and non-contact optical measurements for surface wave measurements.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Photonic sensing technology is innovative approach to identify and measure physical
variables. Photonic crystal is array of periodic change in refractive index which can engineer
the flow of light passing through it. The slightest change in the arrangement of index of
refraction and corresponding dimension alters the transmission spectrum, which provides the
photonic crystal very sensitive detection capability. Stable alignment, thermal stability, low
cost, low energy requirement, faster response and compatibility with fiber-optic cable makes
photonic sensor for pressure sensing have applications in various field from structural health
monitoring, underwater applications, bio-medical applications to aerospace engineering.
In this paper, we propose a model for photonic crystal based pressure sensor. The model
consists of a waveguide carved in two dielectric slabs surrounded by photonic crystal. The
dielectric slabs are mobile. The photonic crystal is mounted on the object under observation. As
such its pressure can be coupled to the movement of the dielectric slabs in the photonic crystal
and pressure variation can be mapped to the separation of these slabs and thus measured. As a
consequence the optical properties of the photonic crystal like the transmission spectrum
change. The altered transmission spectrum act as a signature of the pressure applied. The
spectral analysis has been done to detect the change in the pressure.
II. THEORY
The photonic crystal is defined as periodic profile of refractive index which allows the
controlled flow of the light through it. The artificial photonic crystal structures can be
fabricated using immensely developed CMOS technology. It appears in one-dimension,
two-dimension and three dimensions. It exists in two configurations: rods in air configuration
and holes in slab configuration. The photonic crystal appears in different lattice structures
example square lattice and hexagonal lattice. In this paper, two works are carried out. One is
using two-dimensional square lattice photonic crystal with rods in air figuration and another is
using two-dimensional hexagonal lattice photonic crystal with holes in slab configuration.
The defect engineering is an important aspect of the photonic crystal which is
responsible for the controlled propagation of light through it. Defect engineering is the
controlled change in the index profile of the photonic crystal to modify course of the
electromagnetic waves passing through it. The line defect and point defect are the two types of
defect popularly used and are very useful for creating band gap structures for different
applications.
The photonic band gap property can be explored for the sensing applications. The band
gap is referred to as an optical insulator. The bandgap property is precisely dependent on the
refractive index arrangement of the photonic crystal. The smallest change in the refractive
index profile example change in radius of holes or change in the dimension of the waveguide,
there is a precise change in the band gap property. Thus the band gap structures are efficient and
highly sensitive sensor devices.
FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) Method: FDTD method provides a solution to
Maxwell's equation. In FDTD method a finite rectangular grid is divided into space and time.
These equations are solved using MEEP simulation tools. MEEP implements FDTD method to
compute transmission spectrum.

The model of photonic crystal consist waveguide carved with the help of two dielectric
slabs, with the upper plate mobile. As the pressure is applied on the photonic crystal, the
dielectric slab moves and change the dimension of the waveguide. As a result the index profile
of the photonic crystal is altered and thus changing the spectral property. This change in optical
property is directly proportional to the applied pressure.

(holes in slab configuration)
The modeling and simulation has been done with the help of MEEP simulation tool.
MEEP tool works in time domain and provides implementation of Finite Difference Time
Domain Method. MEEP is MIT Electromagnetic Equation Propagation. MEEP is
'dimensionless' tool where µ0, 0, c are unity. The output of MEEP is the transmitted power; the
transmission spectrum is obtained using output from MEEP.
Operation: The Gaussian light pulse is passed through one end of the photonic crystal while the
spectrum analyzer is placed in the other end. The applied pressure moves the mobile plate
reducing or increasing the distance between two dielectric slabs. The movement of the plate is
considered in 20 steps, each step of 0.1µm for design1 and for design2 we have considered in 5
steps, each step of 0.1µm. The changed dimension of the waveguide alters the light propagation
and thus changing the transmission spectrum. The transmission spectrum is observed at each
step of 0.1µm increase or decrease in distance between the two dielectric slabs.
IV. RESULTS
The transmission spectrum is plotted as shown in figure 5 given below.
