A conceptual design analysis of Git
… on the quality of the concepts that underlie its design. Yet this hypothesis has not been systematically explored by researchers, and conceptual design has not played the central role in the research and teaching of software engineering that one might expect. As part of a new research project to …

Design, analysis and validation of electrode-less plasma generator
The current work investigates a method for generating plasmas without damaging electrodes. The primary objective is the creation of an electrode-less potential region (virtual cathode) through the use of electron emission and active feed of radio frequency (RF) signal. The reason for pursuing this …

Design, Analysis, and Application of Immersed Finite Element Methods
… First, we extend the current construction and analysis approach of IFE methods in the literature for scalar elliptic equations to elasticity systems in the vector format. In particular, we construct a group of low-degree IFE functions formed by linear, bilinear, and rotated Q1 polynomials to …
