ABSTRACT Reliability verification often requires that a specific number of components be tested to a predetermined level of testing to demonstrate that none of the samples fail. This article describes a statistical approach for justifying the use of fewer samples by subjecting them to a more severe level of testing. BACKGROUND Reliability verification often includes … [Read more...]
Statistics Corner: Probability
Statistical analysis is needed because data always have some degree of uncertainty; a value that we determine from a single measurement, or even set of measurements, is not necessarily going to tell us exactly what value we will determine with additional measurements. Statistical analysis uses the mathematics of probability to create tools that we can use to deal with … [Read more...]
Upper Air Room Disinfection with UV-C Luminaire – Metrics and Multi-Domain Modeling Approach
In my previous article, I questioned how our simulation community of experts can contribute in this pandemic time? I am coming back to present examples of contributions. While the general topic of this article is outside the typical scope of Electronics Cooling Magazine, it does illustrate how analysis methods that are discussed here, such as computational fluid dynamics, and … [Read more...]
Emerging 5G Networks: Potential Economic Benefits of Two-Phase Thermal Management
The fourth and future industrial revolutions will set new requirements for smart cities / factories, autonomous vehicles, augmented reality, smartphones, etc., resulting in more distributed architectures, expanding the convergence of new technologies and developments thus, transforming the term Internet of Things (IoT) to Internet of Everything (IoE). Centralized cloud … [Read more...]
Structure Functions: The Universal Tools for Thermal Design, Testing and Quality Control
Near the end of the 20th century, increasing power levels became the primary challenge in system design, which triggered a complex response from electrical, mechanical and material engineers. The combination of thermal measurements and thermal simulation helped achieve thermally aware system designs. However, no real solution was known for the valid comparison of thermal design … [Read more...]
