Abstract: Ion-implantation is an advanced technology to inject dopants for shallow junction formation. Due to the ion-induced sputtering effect at low implant energy where dopants tend to accumulate at the silicon surface, the excess ...

Abstract: When subjected to a strong swirling jet flow induced by a rotating ship’s propeller, the bed of a waterway may undergo significant changes. These changes will not only cause instability to quay structures and damage the ...

Abstract: A set of large-scale laboratory experiments were conducted to study the migration of meandering channel. Factors affecting the change of banklines, including the ratio of centerline curvature to channel width, bend angle, ...

Abstract: When subjected to a strong swirling jet flow induced by a rotating ship’s propeller, the bed of a waterway may undergo significant changes. These changes will not only cause instability to quay structures and damage the ...

Abstract: Swirling jets induced by propellers have a significant impact on riverine and marine environments. Erosion around quay structures and contaminant dispersion in harbors or along navigation channels are examples of these ...

Abstract: The deformation caused by waves and current in an aquatic environment significantly impacts the remaining volume of a net cage. Its fluctuations in magnitude could pose a potential threat to the well-being of cultivated ...

Abstract: The velocity characteristics of a solitary wave shoaling in the prebreaking zone and near the breaking point are investigated experimentally. The study focuses on the near-bottom and boundary layer flows on a 1:10 slope, ...

Abstract: One particular complexity of coronary artery is the natural tapering of the vessel with proximal segments having larger caliber and distal tapering as the vessel get smaller. The natural tapering of a coronary artery often ...
