Microstrip propagation time: the difference in determining stripline and microstrip propagation time is more than a fine line.(Stripline Speed)
Printed Circuit Design & Manufacture; 5/1/2004; Brooks, Douglas; 1488 words ; Electrical signals on wires and traces travel at the speed of light, 186,280 miles/sec. Do the math and that works out to 0.9835 ft/ns, or 11.8 in./ns. The speed of light slows down in any other medium by the square root of the relative dielectric coefficient of the medium. So the propagation speed Read more

Importance of the Hsp70 ATPase Domain in Yeast Prion Propagation
Genetics; 2/1/2007; Loovers, Harriët M; Guinan, Emma; Jones, Gary W; 6740 words ; ABSTRACT The Saccharomyces cerevisiae non-Mendelian genetic element [PSI^sup is the prion form of the translation termination factor Sup35p. The ability of [PSI^sup to propagate efficiently has been shown previously to depend upon the action of protein chaperones. In this article we describe a Read more

Author advocates propagation, without all the trepidation.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
Knight Ridder/Tribune News Service; 3/29/2001; Cowie, Denise; 1169 words ; Ken Druse doesn't like to use the word propagation too much. People think of propagation as some kind of voodoo science, and it's just gardening, he says. It's the kind of thing gardeners do all the time without thinking about it. That cutting you got from your neighbor? Propagation. Dividing those Read more

Nondestructive Testing of Polyaramide Cables by Longitudinal Wave Propagation: Study of the Dynamic Modulus.
Polymer Engineering and Science; 7/1/2000; FERREIRA, M. LAM, T.M. KONCAR, V. DELVAEL, Y.; 2005 words ; T.M. LAM It has been observed that cables at different states of fatigue had their own speed of longitudinal propagation of acoustic waves [1]. This speed can be measured with piezoelectric captors and is proportional to the square root of the sonic modulus. Our experiments, which have been Read more
