Magnetron Sputtering Of Ni-Ti Thin Film Simulation By Using Embedded Atom Model, Ajit Behera May 2013

Magnetron Sputtering Of Ni-Ti Thin Film Simulation By Using Embedded Atom Model, Ajit Behera

Ajit Behera

Nickel-Titanium Thinfilm shape memory alloys formed by sputtering have been promising candidates for the realization of powerful actuators in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) such as micro valves, micro fluid pumps and micromanipulators. In order to increase the actuation response of the microactuator utilizing SMA thin films, it is necessary to study the sputtering process parameter. The present work simulates the movement of Ni and Ti atoms on NiTi film During impingement, revealed re-sputtering, which is manipulated by Classical molecular dynamics simulation.

Game Design As A Writing Course In The Liberal Arts., Amber Settle, Robin Burke, Lucia Dettori

Amber Settle

The School of Computer Science, Telecommunications, and Information Systems (CTI) is a technologically-focused college within DePaul University. While DePaul CTI has a large number of technical degree programs, DePaul University is a liberal arts institution and one that is increasingly focused on improving the writing skills of its students. It can be difficult to create courses that cover necessary technical material while requiring writing as a major part of the assessments. In this paper we discuss GAM 224: Introduction to Game Design, a required course in one of the specialized degree programs at DePaul CTI that involves writing in a …
