TY - JOUR A1 - Szabó, Peter A1 - Steffens, Oliver A1 - Lenz, Michael A1 - Farkas, Gábor T1 - Transient junction-to-case thermal resistance measurement methodology of high accuracy and high repeatability JF - IEEE Transactions on Components and Packaging Technologies N2 - High-power packages show a characteristic three-dimensional heat flow resulting in large lateral changes in chip and case surface temperature. This paper proposes an unambiguous definition for the R/sub thJC/ junction-to-case thermal resistance as a key parameter of such packages based on a transient measurement technique ensuring high repeatability even at very low R/sub th/ values. The technique is illustrated on thermal transient measurements of high-power MOSFET devices. It is also presented how the same measurement results can be used for die attach quality analysis. Finally, a comparative method is shown for measuring the differences of R/sub th/ values among samples with many times higher resolution compared with a direct R/sub thJC/ measurement.

The interminiband statistics at some selected point in the magnetic Brillouin zone shows a transition from degenerate Landau levels to universal spectral correlations while the corresponding classical dynamics displays a crossover from regular cyclotron orbits to chaotic motion. In terms of the nearest-neighbor spacing distribution, we observe the occurrence of level repulsion for all nonzero modulation amplitudes, which indicates a discontinuous transition to universal fluctuations for the smallest level spacings when the rotational invariance of the system is broken by a finite superlattice potential. In order to test the universality of the transition on larger scales, we propose a random matrix model with one transition parameter for comparison. Confirmed by two different types of potential shapes, we detect an explicit influence of the potential shape on the level spacing distributions, which hence cannot be described by the one-parameter model. Using the spectral rigidity, however, universal long-range fluctuations in the regime of negligible Landau-level mixing are found, in agreement with our random matrix model.

We employ time-dependent spin-density functional theory to calculate Raman spectra for circular semiconductor quantum dots with up to 10 electrons for the polarized and depolarized configuration and in dependence on an external magnetic field and the momentum transfer. Our results demonstrate an increase of the collective (or many-particle) character of the excitations with increasing momentum transfer and a mixing of spin- and charge-density modes for excitations from ground states with finite spin density. These results have predictive character, because corresponding experiments on few-electron dots have not yet been performed.

Here we investigate the transition between weak modulation and antidots within the quantum-mechanical theory by studying (i) the single-particle spectrum with respect to quantum signatures of classical chaos and (ii) the change of characteristic features in the magnetoresistance starting from the Kubo formula.

We compare our current density functional theory calculations with recent experiments by Tarucha et al. [PRL 77, 3613 (1996)]. We find a very good qualitative agreement of the structures and find an additional effect caused by Hund's first rule in magnetic field, which gives rise to new substructures not discussed in the paper by Tarucha.

In order to determine water content and assess fire safety within tunnel linings a novel measurement system has been developed. The development process includes the calibration of the sensor system via both direct and indirect approaches. This work compares both calibration methods and shows the differences that can occur due to measurement uncertainty. This work presents the measured water content within the Inntal tunnel, Austria as a representative tunnel from a total of four investigated tunnels. The obtained water content is compared to that found in the literature, and recommendations for practical work in terms of fire safety is given.

T1 - Thermische Gebäudesimulation: aktuelle Anwendungen und Erweiterungen mittels der Finite‐Elemente‐Methode T2 - Bauphysik-Kalender 2025: Simulationen, BIM und KI N2 - Nach einem kurzen historischen Abriss der Entwicklung der Gebäudesimulation wird die aktuell übliche gleichungsbasierte Kompaktmodell-Simulation beschrieben und deren praktische Anwendung aufgezeigt. Dabei wird auf die Bedeutung der Validierung von Simulationstools und auf etablierte Validierungsstandards eingegangen. Gebäudesimulation dient der Optimierung des Bauens in allen Planungsphasen. Mit Praxisbeispielen vom sommerlichen Wärmeschutz bis hin zur Modellierung innovativer Konstruktionen werden unterschiedliche Einsatzbereiche demonstriert. Im zweiten Teil wird die Verwendung der Finite-Elemente-Methode (FEM) für die bauphysikalische Modellierung vorgestellt. Anhand von Beispielen zeigen wir, dass die (rechenzeitintensive) FEM aufgrund einer detaillierteren Modellierung von Geometrie, Strahlung und Konvektion präzisere Simulationsergebnisse liefert. Zum Abschluss werden Wege vorgeschlagen, wie dies zur Erweiterung der schnelleren Kompaktmodell-Simulation eingesetzt werden kann.
