Physics and Engineering of a Piano

18 November 2023

11:30 AM SGT

https://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/

Of all of the traditional musical instruments, rigorous scientific and engineering principles have been applied most comprehensively to the modern piano. This presentation will explore some of the main aspects of the design compromises and developments that have been implemented in all commercial piano designs since the late 19th century. The focus will be particularly upon the scientific details of sound production by pianos and how pianos have been engineered to exploit the principles of acoustics, dispelling some common misconceptions along the way. The intended audience is pure and applied scientists and engineers interested in design evolution, and musicians interested in how science and engineering have influenced instrument design. A basic knowledge of physics (frequency, Fourier series basics, tension, stretched strings, impedance, power transmission, elasticity, 1D wave equation) and only a little music theory (names of notes, intervals, basic notes on a stave) will be assumed.

Innovation technologies for Highly Safe and Energy -efficient GaN Devices

With its excellent intrinsic properties stemming from its wide bandgap (Eg), gallium nitride (GaN) is considered as a key semiconductor material for realizing ultra-low-loss power devices. GaN has an Eg of 3.4 eV, which is more than thrice that of the ubiquitous silicon (Si).  As critical field Ecr varies roughly with the square of Eg, this translates to almost ten times higher Ecr for GaN over that of Si. In principle, for same breakdown voltage, a GaN device can be designed to be much shorter and therefore less resistive, procuring highly reduced conduction losses. Moreover, the major advantage of using GaN over Si and its other wide bandgap rivals, is the possibility of fabricating the AlGaN/GaN heterostructure, which is the basis of the high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT). Strong polarization fields in the AlGaN/GaN heterostructure result in a sheet of highly mobile two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), serving as current carrier between the drain and source electrodes that can be modulated by an external applied voltage (VGS) on the gate. Because of the inherent presence of this 2DEG in the channel even without applied VGS, AlGaN/GaN HEMTs are normally-on devices with negative threshold voltage (VTH). However, for power switching applications, normally-off or (or enhancement-mode) device with positive VTH is preferable from fail-safe point of view. In this presentation, present status and recent progress in normally-off GaN-based transistors will be discussed including our own state-of-the-art solution for threshold voltage engineering using recessed structures and regrowth technology.

As we work together to support the mission and vision of the IEEE, we must remain steadfast in our support for the use of a standardized and peer-reviewed approach in support of scientific research. This will remain a critical tool for successfully navigating our complex world. Without it, we would be forced to rely solely on intuition, other people’s authority, and blind luck.

Opportunities and Challenges of Integration of RE in Grids

This popular quotation is valid for all times provided that the word “calculated” is properly defined for a given space-time frame. In the last year, global-scale Covid-19 lockdown made many amendments to both opportunities and risks in the engineering spheres. A good example is the battery storage and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (BSEVs and HFEVs). At present, a large volume of career and investment opportunities in the transportation industry depends on the government policies on developing infrastructure for either or both of the two technologies. Now the question is whether it is advisable for a country to adopt policies on long-term infrastructure development based on the short-term technological gains of one mode of vehicles? On a different note, this uncertainty of scenarios opens doors to another domain; development of intelligent algorithms for predicting the direction of technology advancement in the future.
