Thin-film bulk acoustic resonatorA thin-film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR or TFBAR) is a device consisting of a piezoelectric material manufactured by thin film methods between two conductive – typically metallic – electrodes and acoustically isolated from the surrounding medium. The operation is based on the piezoelectricity of the piezolayer between the electrodes. FBAR devices using piezoelectric films with thicknesses ranging from several micrometres down to tenths of micrometres resonate in the frequency range of 100 MHz to 20 GHz.
Vague scélératevignette|300px|droite|Vague scélérate vue d’un navire marchand (1940, golfe de Gascogne, ligne de sonde des ). Les vagues scélérates sont des vagues océaniques très hautes, soudaines, considérées comme très rares. Cette rareté est relative, les observations ne concernant qu'une très faible partie d'entre elles, compte tenu de l'étendue des océans et de la rapidité avec laquelle les vagues se forment et se défont au sein des trains de vagues où elles se propagent.
Computational electromagneticsComputational electromagnetics (CEM), computational electrodynamics or electromagnetic modeling is the process of modeling the interaction of electromagnetic fields with physical objects and the environment. It typically involves using computer programs to compute approximate solutions to Maxwell's equations to calculate antenna performance, electromagnetic compatibility, radar cross section and electromagnetic wave propagation when not in free space.
