High Frequency Acoustic Reflectometry for Solid/Liquid Interface Characterization: Application to Droplet Evaporation

Julien Carlier, Malika Toubal, Sizhe Li, Pierre Campistron, Dorothée Debavelaere-Callens, V. Thomy, Vincent Senez, Bertrand Nongaillard

Evolution of the local concentration in a 1 mL droplet of ethanol/water mixture during an evaporation process has been followed using high frequency acoustic reflectometry. This method has been developed for wetting characterization on micro/nanostructures and makes it possible to follow…

Non-contact ultrasonic non-destructive techniques : state of the art and their use in civil engineering

Mariusz Kaczmarek, Bogdan Piwakowski, Radoslaw Drelich

Ultrasonic methods of testing of civil engineering materials in air where both transmission of waves into materials and reception of signals are contactless are reviewed. Short history, technical details and examples of applications of currently available methods are discussed. Keywords: ultrasound…

Experimental analysis of Zigbee RF signal performance for railway application: Study on a laboratory reduced scale train

Sara Iben Jellal, O. Cohin, S. Baranowski, Ulrich Biaou, Michael Bocquet, Atika Rivenq

Due to its cost and power performance, Zigbee is widely used and can be applied to railway systems. This paper deals with the performance of a Zigbee (IEEE.802.15.4) RF signal, according to several criteria; this analysis is based on an experimental approach and specially on power measurements in…

Plasticity in memristive devices for spiking neural networks

S. Saïghi, C.G. Mayr, T. Serrano-Gotarredona, H. Schmidt, G. Lecerf, J. Tomas, J. Grollier, S. Boyn, A.F. Vincent, D. Querlioz, S. La Barbera, F. Alibart, Dominique Vuillaume, O. Bichler, C. Gamrat, B. Linares-Barranco

Memristive devices present a new device technology allowing for the realization of compact non-volatile memories. Some of them are already in the process of industrialization. Additionally, they exhibit complex multilevel and plastic behaviors, which make them good candidates for the implementation…

Design of Environmental Biosensor Based on Photonic Crystal Fiber with Bends Using Finite Element Method

Shyqyri Haxha, Ahmed Teyeb, Fathi Abdel Malek, Emmanuel Kofi Akowuah, Iyad Dayoub

In this paper, a biosensor based on photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed and designed using Full-Vectorial Finite Element Method (FVFEM). The proposed PCF sensor consists of three concentric circles surrounding the core. The key optical sensor characteristics such as sensitivity, the field…

Dispersion curves of 2D rods with complex cross-sections: double orthogonal polynomial approach

J.G. Yu, Jean-Etienne Lefebvre, Ch. Zhang, Faniry Emilson Ratolojanahary

Orthogonal polynomial series approach has been used to analyze the guided wave propagation in structures for about 20 years. These structures have always one infinite dimension in the waveguiding direction and, sometimes a regular finite cross-section (axially infinite solid or hollow cylinder for…

A model to predict modal radiation by finite-sized sources in composite plates with account of caustics

Mathilde Stévenin, Alain Lhémery, Sébastien Grondel

The guided wave field generated by finite size transducers in a composite plate is studied. For isotropic plates, Fraunhofer-like approximations can be found in the literature. Similar approximations fail when the plate is anisotropic. A new calculation method is proposed. Based on a modal…

Sensing of liquid droplets with a scanning near-field microwave microscope

Kamel Haddadi, S. Gu, T. Lasri

We demonstrate a scanning near-field microwave microscope based on an interferometric technique for dielectric characterization in liquid media. The instrumentation combines a vector network analyzer, an interferometry-based matching network and an evanescent microwave coaxial probe. The…
