Slip surface in narrow backfill behind retaining wall

For a particular area in Geotechnical Lunchbox engineering, a soil slope is defined as a surface of soil mass which is inclined.It the slope is unstable or has insufficient factor of safety, then it needs to be strengthened by a retaining wall or a particular earth reinforcement to ensue slope failure does not occur.It has long been known that the

Real-Time Switching Dynamics in STT-MRAM

In this paper a new experimental technique for measuring the switching dynamics and extracting the energy consumption of Spin Transfer Torque MRAM (STT-MRAM) device is presented.This technique is performed by a real-time current reading while a pulsed bias is applied.The switching from a high resistive state, anti-parallel (AP) alignment, to a low
