Objectives The aim was to develop methodology for tracking ...
Diagnosis of feline infectious peritonitis
(2018-02-27)
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), a fatal immune-mediated disease, is caused by feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), the high-virulence pathotype of Feline coronavirus (FCoV). It is believed that the FIPV is an ...
Diagnostic Test Generation for Path Delay Faults in a Scan Circuit
(2015-07-24)
With the increase of density, speed and test time of large VLSI circuits, man-
ufacturers are eager to nd e cient ways to bring up yields. Often, VLSI testing
only tells if a circuit is faulty but is unable to locate ...
Diagnostic Test Generation for Transition Delay Faults Using a Two-Timeframe ATPG Model
(2015-07-24)
Determining the location and cause of a defect in a faulty circuit plays a vital role in VLSI testing. These are critical factors in boosting product quality and reducing manufacturing costs.
An automatic test generation ...
Diagnostic Test Pattern Generation and Fault Simulation for Stuck-at and Transition Faults
(2012-03-28)
In VLSI testing we need Automatic Test Pattern Generator (ATPG) to get input test vectors for Circuit Under Test (CUT). Generated test sets are usually compacted to save test time which is not good for failure diagnosis. ...
A Diagnostic Tool for Neuropathy Assessment on the Plantar Surface of the Foot
(2020-07-10)
Neuropathy is categorized as a loss of sensation in the extremities, particularly in the hands and feet. It is often found in people with diabetes and is present in 40-60 million people. Symptoms include burning, numbness, ...
Dialectical Differences of Spanish-influenced English in Children: Competence and Confidence of Speech-Language Pathologists
(2016-04-27)
A web-based survey of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in 15 states across the United States was conducted to assess their confidence and competence in serving bilingual or English-language learning (ELL) children. Mean ...
Diamond Chemical Vapor Deposition and Practical Applications
(2009-07-09)
Diamond chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique has been studied intensively and has overcome some of the constraints of traditional high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) diamond synthesis methods in the last decades. ...
Diastereoselective Transformations of Macrocyclic 1,4-Diketones for the Synthesis of Cyclobutane-containing Natural Products
(2020-12-01)
Macrocyclic conformation has been investigated since the 1950s. The understanding of this phenomenon has been applied to predict and explain diastereoselective reactions to macrocyclic systems since this time, and correlation ...
Dictionary-Less Defect Diagnosis as Real or Surrogate Single Stuck-At Faults
(2013-04-05)
In this work, an algorithm to diagnose classic single stuck-at-faults and provide surrogate fault suspects for non-classical faults like multiple faults by analyzing failing circuits is proposed. The algorithm is based on ...
Die Attach for High Temperature Applications
(2014-12-17)
The energy sector is seeing dynamic growth with advanced oil and gas recovery methods being deployed. Measure-while-drilling (MWD) and downhole production instrumentation is important to maximize production and safety. ...
Die Stress Characterization and Interface Delamination Study in Flip Chip on Laminate Assemblies
(2005-08-15)
Thermo-mechanical reliability of flip chip on laminate packaging is a major concern when the assemblies are exposed to harsh operating environments such as space or automotive underhood applications. In this study, ...
