It is shown that a compact MOSFET-aging model for circuit simulation is possible by considering the dynamic trap-density increase, which is induced during circuit operation. The dynamic trap/detrap phenomenon, which influences the switching performance, is also considered on the basis of well-known previous results. Stress-dependent hot-carrier effect and NBTI effect, origins of the device aging, are modeled during the circuit simulation for each device by integrating the substrate current as well as by determining the oxide-field change due to the trapped carriers over the individual stress-duration periods. A self-consistent solution can be obtained only by iteratively solving the Poisson... 

Three dimensional calculations of electronic dynamics of CH4 in a strong laser field are presented with time-dependent density-functional theory. Time evolution of dipole moment and electron localization function is presented. The dependence of dissociation rate on the laser characters is shown and optimal effective parameters are evaluated. The optimum field leads to 76% dissociation probability for Gaussian envelope and 40 fs (FWHM) at 10 16 W cm-2. The dissociation probability is calculated by optimum convolution of dual short pulses. By combining of field assisted dissociation process and Ehrenfest molecular dynamics, time variation of bond length, velocity and orientation effect are... 

A CFD code has been developed to describe the salt solution density current, which propagates three-dimensionally in deep ambient water. The height and width of the dense layer are two dominated length scales in a 3-D structure of the density current. In experimental efforts, it is common to measure the height and width of this current via its brightness. Although there are analytical relations to calculate the current height in a two-dimensional flow, these relations cannot be used to identify the width and height of a 3-D density current, due to the existence of two unknown parameters. In the present model, the height and width of the dense layer are obtained by using the boundary layer...
