In this paper, we present a critical evaluation of the influence of geometry on the behavior of the transient current at all ultramicroelectrodes. The nonsteady-state chronoamperometric diffusion limited current of various microelectrodes (circular disc, circular ring, elliptical disc, elliptical ring, band, hemicylinder, hemisphere, hemioblate and hemiprolate electrodes) are compared. Here, the area of the entire electrode is fixed and time variables are also normalized with respect to area. The chronoamperometric current for short and long time for all microelectrodes are given in tabular as well as graphical form also.

The phase portrait of the second and higher order differential equations presents in graphical form the behavior of the solution set without solving the equation. In this way, the stability of a dynamic system and its long-time behavior can be studied. The article explores the capabilities of Mathcad for analysis of systems by the phase plane method. A sequence of actions using Mathcad's operators to build phase portrait and phase trace analysis is proposed. The approach is illustrated by a model of plasma renin activity after treatment of experimental animals with nicardipine. The identified process is a differential equation of the second order. The algorithm is also applicable to systems of higher order.

We study diffusion-limited crystal growth in a two dimensional channel geometry. We demonstrate that although there exists a linearly stable steady-state finger solution of the pattern evolution equations, the true dynamical behavior can be controlled by a tip-widening instability. Possible scenarios for the long-time behavior of the system are presented.

From this current paper, 3 separate elliptical slotted ultra- wide band (UWB) antennas are being proposed. These antennas have been designed with a standard PCB design process to be capable of integrating with radiofrequency or microwave circuitry. Two designs were presented in which the initial design comprised a half circular ring radiator and the remaining one considers a half elliptical ring radiator. The third design of the radiator is in the shape of a crescent. The impedance bandwidth of all these presented antenna designs varies from 2.5GHz and reaches to 14GHz with a S11 less than -10GHz. Here, every proposed antenna design also has a consistent radiation pattern across its frequency band of interest. The performance of the antenna is impressive for lower band frequency in UWB system, which differs in a range of 3.1GHz to 5.1GHz. Across the whole frequency band the antenna shows a 10db return loss bandwidth. The antenna is fabricated on RT-duroid substrate and fed with 50 Ω coupled tappered transmission line.
