    Gate level optimisation of primitive operator digital filters using a carry save decomposition

    No full text
    This paper introduces a method for optimising digital filter realisations at the gate level. The method is based on a derivative of the primitive operator approach of Bull and Horrocks which is extended using a carry-save decomposition of the primitive operator graph. This facilitates the generation of a set of Boolean expressions for the multiply-accumulate section of the filter which can be minimised using standard sum of products or Reed Muller techniques. The technique is fully described and results are presented for a representative range of FIR filters. Savings of up to 83% are obtained for sum-of-products minimisation when compared to a CSD coded hard-wired multiplier solution. Initial results suggest further improvements in excess of 20% for the Reed Muller cas

    Effects of oxygen-related damage on dwell-fatigue crack propagation in a P/M Ni-based superalloy: From 2D to 3D assessment

    No full text
    Effects of oxygen-related damage (i.e. oxidation and dynamic embrittlement) on fatigue crack propagation behavior in an advanced disc alloy have been assessed in air and vacuum under dwell-fatigue conditions at 725 °C. The enhanced fatigue crack propagation is closely related to oxygen-related damage at/ahead of the crack tip, which is determined by the testing environment, the dwell period and the crack propagation rate itself based on two dimensional (2D) observation of the crack tip in an optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. X-ray computed tomography has also been employed to examine the differences between three dimension (3D) crack morphology in air and vacuum conditions, and the crack features have been quantified in terms of crack opening displacements, secondary cracks and uncracked bridging ligaments. The results show that the fatigue crack propagation rate is related to the amount of secondary cracks, and the crack length increment in a loading cycle is related to the breaking/cracking of the uncracked bridging ligaments within the discontinuous cracking zone ahead of the crack tip as oxygen-related damage preferentially occurs in these highly deformed regions. By combination of 3D X-ray computed tomography and traditional 2D observation, a deeper understanding is provided of the mechanisms of oxygen-enhanced fatigue crack propagation behavior
