Automating U-spline fluid-structure model development for mobility applications
SBC: Coreform LLC Topic: A19BT006Dr. Thomas J.R. Hughes, senior advisor at Coreform, first introduced isogeometric analysis (IGA) in 2005. In the years since, it has been shown that smooth splines, the basic building blocks of IGA, allow for the use of relatively coarse meshes for accurate analysis in both finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Research results also show that IGA delivers improved a ...

Low Temperature Atomic Layer Deposition of Manganese Telluride on Topological Insulator
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: A19BT007Planar heterojunction comprised of topological insulator and magnetic insulator layers provide a unique opportunity to develop highly energy efficient electronics. The key challenge for the heterojunction is to fabricate a clean and abrupt interface between the two layers for efficient magnetic coupling. The growth of the magnetic materials should ideally be a low-temperature process in order to p ...

Low Temperature Deposition of Magnetic Materials on Topological Materials
SBC: WINCHESTER TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: A19BT007n conjunction with ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic materials the topological insulators are elements of future magnetic random access memory (MRAM) and GHz-to-THz frequency sources (spin-torque nano-oscillators, STNO). One of the major challenges in applying topological insulators (TIs) in magnetic devices is the mutual incompatible deposition processes. TIs are usually destroyed by the high t ...
