Concurrent setup

Concurrently design test structures and develop test models dedicated solely to extracting critical model parameters from electrical precision measurements on the wafer level. Improve fabrication processes using test structures early in the sensor development phase and well in advance of starting production. Eventually, reduce the number of test structures and the wafer space they occupy, optimize testing time and equipment, and then commit a test setup to production. 

The thermal system (optics modules) in FllnS has been modelled according to the FIRI-CDF Study Report (ESA Concurrent Design Facility 2006). Variations of this optical setup will require to perform some minimal modifications in FllnS. Currently the cold optics emissivities and transmission (and hence reflection) are constant along the band of operation of the instrument. To input transmission profiles from the different optical elements will narrow the gap between an ideal simulator and a much more realistic one. 

The test setups are shown in Fig. 19.3. In this study, two RC specimens and one steel damper on the first floor are tested individually but concurrently. Therefore two kinds of loading systems are provided. Each specimen must be loaded simultaneously with the analytical calculated loads coming from the upper part of the framed structure. Therefore, four static hydraulic actuators are connected to each column specimen, so that loading with three degree of freedom can be performed. One actuator is connected to the damper and loading takes place with one degree of freedom. In the case of RC column, as shown in Fig. 19.3b, the middle actuator in the vertical direction has a loading capacity of 2,000 kN the force capacity of the other two vertical actuators and one horizontal actuator is 500 kN. The force capacity of the horizontal actuator for the damper is 500 kN. 

Verification Setup for a System Call. We have presented the use of deductive program verification in the Verisoft XT Avionics subproject. The formalization of PowerPC assembly language semantics enables us to verify kernel functionality spanning all levels of the PikeOS microkernel. In particular, we have shown how interrupts are disabled and then restored again to ensure that the bulk of the system call is in non-concurrent mode. The same approach can be applied to verify system calls with more complex functionality as these still span the same levels in the kernel as a call with simple functionality (this is ongoing work). 

The setup and the performance of the hot gas atomization process will be assessed in detail by means of experimental and numerical investigations. The sprayed polymer solutions, that represent the input to the process, greatly influence the outcome of the hot gas atomization and drying process. In the materials section, the properties of PVP K30 and K90 solutions will be characterized. To point out the differences between hot gas atomization and conventional concurrent spray drying processes, the atomizer performance on different scales is analyzed. The atomizer gas temperature influences the atomization and the drying process and the spray flow may be influenced by changing the spray chamber design. 

The use of simultaneous but independent redox steps in one-pot, is another type of strategy to obtain valuable enantioenriched alcohols. Usually the setup of this strategy is challenging, since kinetics and thermodynamics of each step have to fit. In one example, Kroutil and coworkers achieved the concurrent iridium[Pg.103]
