Abstract

"Anticipating integrated-system performance often requires full-wave electromagnetic simulations. Commercial full-wave tools may not be able to efficiently handle these types of problems due to either the large scale of the problems, which demand enormous computational resources, or modeling of active devices, which is necessary for system-level power delivery network analysis in the time domain. Simplified models on a SPICE deck are desirable because of the computational efficiency, and the capability of handling active devices in a SPICE solver. The first section in this dissertation describes a statistical algorithm for hand-assembled cable harness modeling based on a SPICE transmission line model...In the second section, a novel approach for equivalent circuit model extraction is developed for modeling of integrated package and PCB power distribution networks (PDN)...The third section describes the development of novel coaxial cable sensors featuring high sensitivity and high spatial resolution for health monitoring of civil concrete structures using time-domain reflectometry (TDR)"--Abstract, page iv.
