Equivalent Circuit Modeling and Signal Integrity Analysis of Magneto-Static Responsive Structures, and Their Applications in Changing The Effective Permittivity of Microstrip Transmission Lines
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
This work presents the equivalent circuit model, ringing and overshoot characteristics, as
well as the ability of a new magneto-static responsive structure (MRS) to achieve the recon gurabil-
ity of a variable e ective ...
Effects of Alternating Current Electrical Stimulation on the Cellular Chemistry and Proliferation of C2C12 Muscle Cells
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of electrical stimulation on the cellular chemistry and proliferation of C2C12 muscle cell line. The cells were cultured under the condition of AC electrical ...
Dummy TSV-Based Timing Optimization for 3D On-Chip Memory
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Design and fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) ICs is one the newest and hottest trends in semiconductor manufacturing industry. In 3D ICs, multiple 2D silicon dies are stacked vertically, and through silicon vias (TSVs) ...
Hardware Design for Cryptographic Protocols: An Algorithmic State Machine Design Approach
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
This thesis presents Algorithmic State Machine (ASM) designs that follow the One Cycle Demand Driven Convention (OCDDC) of three cryptographic protocols: Secure Distributed Multiplication (SDM), Pi Secure Distributed ...
Personalized Health Insurance Services Using Big Data
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Cloud computing paradigm has significantly affected the healthcare sector like various other business domains. Persistently growing healthcare data over the Internet has called for the development of methodologies to ...
The Interaction of Radio Frequency and Lambda DNA
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
By exposing an aqueous DNA solution to a spectrum of radio frequency (RF) energy this research identifies frequencies, if any, where DNA interacts with RF energy. Interaction is determined by the amount of RF energy either ...
Equivalence Verification for NULL Convention Logic and Latency-Insensitive Circuits
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
NULL convention logic and latency-insensitive circuits are delay-tolerant circuits that can
be synthesized from a synchronous speci cation. These design paradigms can use existing CAD
ows to implement circuits that are ...
Effect of Caffeine and a Preworkout Supplement on Heart Rate Variability Before and After Exercise
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Cardiovascular health is negatively affected by overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) during rest. Heart rate variability (HRV) has been used to predict SNS activity. The study investigated effects of a ...
Formal Verification Techniques for Safety Critical Medical Device Software Control
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Safety-critical medical devices play an important role in improving patients health and
lifestyle. Faulty behaviors of such devices can cause harm or even death. Often these faulty
behaviors are caused due to bugs in ...
The Design and Analysis of a Conformal Spiral Antenna Structure for an Ultra-Wide-Band Radar System
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
This thesis explores the design, simulation, and analysis of two conformal spiral antenna
structures that are used for an ultra-wide-band (UWB) bistatic radar. The radar antenna system
operates over a frequency range ...
