The use of ground-based robotic systems for the characterisation of nuclear environments is
reviewed. Almost since the dawn of the nuclear energy industry, man has somewhat …

New requirements on post-accident monitoring systems in nuclear power plants pose fresh
challenges for electronic system designers and nuclear power plant personnel, in particular …

A traction drive control system (TDCS) plays an important role in safety running of high-
speed trains. This paper presents a new fault-injection strategy for safety testing and fault …

With the development of large-scale CMOS-integrated circuit manufacturing technology,
microprocessor chips are more vulnerable to soft errors and radiation interference, resulting …

Soft errors induced by Single Event Transient (SET) or Single Event Upset (SEU) are a great
threat to integrated circuits. To reduce the error rate and improve the reliability of the circuits …

Computing systems working in harsh environment is prone to suffer from radiation-induced
soft errors; for example, Single Event Upsets (SEUs) and Single Event Transients (SETs) are …

Near-threshold computing is an effective strategy to reduce the power dissipation of deeply-
scaled CMOS logic circuits. However, near-threshold strategies exacerbate the impact of …

A near-threshold voltage (NTV) operation provides a recognized approach to low-power
circuit design due to its balancing of minor performance degradation relative to its significant …

With the development of technology, the vulnerability of integrated circuits to Single Event
Effect (SEE) increases, and the sensitivity of flip-flops to soft errors induced by Single Event …

It appears that the relentless pursuit of Moore's law scaling from one generation of process
technology to the next increases circuit vulnerability to single-event transient (SET)-induced …
