Signal transmission and crosstalk of coupled bondwires buried in plastic packages are analyzed using the Method of Moments and the Fourier Transform algorithm. It is also shown that the quasi-static crosstalk model of SPICE is inappropriate for designing the high-speed plastic packages. Plastic packaging material, increasing the self and mutual capacitances, is found to be helpful for the signal transmission integrity due to the dielectric compensation effect. However, it is also observed that the plastic material increases the crosstalk due to the radiation-enhanced mutual coupling effect. By investigating the geometrical and material dependence of the pulse transmission and crosstalk, it is found that the radiation-enhanced coupling effect is significant for most of typical bondwire geometries and plastic package materials. These calculation results can be effectively used for designing plastic packages of high-speed digital IC's and monolithic RFIC's.

The irregular fuel surface was observed by the visualization of hybrid rocket combustion. Even though the test condition maintained oxidizer rich environment, the irregular dark fuel surface was formed as the result of incomplete combustion. In order to investigate the correlation of the characteristics of oxidizer flow and the irregular fuel surface, various flow conditions were imposed such as swirl flow, induced swirl flow by helical fuel configuration and straight flow. Test results revealed no correlation was found between oxidizer flow condition and irregular fuel surface. And this can be a commonly observed phenomena in the tests with different fuel/oxidizer combination. Thus, the irregular fuel surface can be a result of the interaction of blowing flow of vaporized fuel and the boundary layer of oxidizer flow. A further study will be required to confirm the assumption for the formation of irregular fuel surface.
