Memristive tunnel junctions
… In the first chapter, we reveal that magnetic tunnel junctions fit in the recently emerged field of memristors and memristive systems. We describe how this 'hot topic' emerged from the combination of two research fields and take a step further by including magnetic systems. The somewhat …

Rail Tunnel Evacuation
In this thesis, human behavior in rail tunnel fires is explored. Descriptive knowledge is presented related to the evacuation of passenger trains, and the subsequent tunnel evacuation to a safe location. More specifically, a theoretical framework that can aid the understanding of human behavior is …

Filtered Fiction, Tunnel Truth
The purpose of this writing is to ask questions about identity, to re-evaluate and to better articulate my world and self. The form of this manuscript is a blend of poetry and prose forms, mainly autobiographical in nature, somewhat fictionalized (or revised) and using subjects that are most …

A TUNNEL DIODE ANALOGUE
… of simulating non-linear characteristics of a tunnel diode is described. The parameters of the analogue are easily variable enabling the tolerance of circuits t variations in tunnel diode parameters to be readily ascertained. Further, the large magnitude of the parameters and teh small …

Post Surgical Outcomes Following Limited-Open Carpal Tunnel Release or Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
<p>Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a neurological condition that may contribute to decreased grip strength, sensory function, activities of daily living, and many other negative impacts on an individual’s life. The purpose of this study was to assess whether patients who received endoscopic carpal tunnel …

Decision aids for tunnel exploration
Tunnels are subsurface passages which are often constructed without removing the overlying rock or soil. It follows that the lack of a priori knowledge of subsurface conditions poses major challenges in their preliminary design and planning. Considerable construction savings may be achieved through …

Tunneling spectroscopy of magnetic tunnel junctions
In this thesis, magnetic tunnel junctions based on MgO barriers have been prepared and investigated. Different aspects were discussed, in order to understand the physical limitations to the TMR ratio of the MTJs and, hence, their performance as a basis of spintronic devices.

FUNCTIONAL REDOX-ACTIVE MOLECULAR TUNNEL JUNCTIONS
Molecular electronics, which use single molecules or self-assembled monolayers as active electrical elements, are complementary to semiconductor-based electronics with the ultimate goal of reducing the footprint or energy consumption of the electronic devices or uncovering new functionalities for …

Experiments in tunnel-soil-structure interaction
… Predicting the interaction between a tunnel, the soil and existing structures remains an engineering challenge due to the highly non-linear behaviour of both the soil and the building. This thesis investigates the interaction between a surface structure and tunnelling-induced ground …
