    Study Notes

    Civil Engineering

    • A structure in civil engineering refers to a system of interconnected members used to support loads.

    Structural Design

    • During the preliminary structural design stage, the axial load, bending moment, and shear force are estimated.

    Structural Analysis

    • Structural analysis establishes the internal forces and stresses in the structure.

    Determining Member Size

    • The purpose of determining the size of interconnected members in structural design is to ensure the structure can withstand the estimated loads.

    Prediction of Structural Analysis

    • The prediction of structural analysis is based on the estimated loads, material properties, and structural geometry.

    Enhancing Figure of Merit (FOM) in Au Thin Film

    • The technique used to achieve an enhanced figure of merit (FOM) in the wedge-shaped Au thin film is not specified in the given text.

    Definition of Figure of Merit (FOM)

    • The figure of merit (FOM) is defined as the ratio of the sensor's sensitivity to its intrinsic noise.

    Fabrication of Wedge-Shaped Au Thin Film

    • The wedge-shaped Au thin film was fabricated through a process not specified in the given text.

    Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Transducers

    • The purpose of integrating multiple surface plasmon resonance (SPR) transducers in a single chip is not specified in the given text.
    • The wedge-shaped Au thin film is equivalent to multiple SPR transducers in a single chip.
