This work focuses on the performance sensitivities of microwave amplifiers using the "adjoint network and adjoint variable" method, via "wave" approaches, which includes sensitivities of the transducer power gain, noise figure, and magnitudes and phases of the input and output reflection coefficient

β¦ Synopsis
The currently fashionable method of calculating first order sensitivity coefficients via the analysis of the original circuit and its adjoint network is an inefficient process which should now be abandoned in favour of more efficient direct methods of calculation. Apart from its greater efficiency, this direct approach would also lead to clearer understanding, by students and non-specialist engineers, of the essential principles involved.

The calculation of the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of a polymer from its rheological properties is an attractive method since rheological measurements are comparatively faster and cheaper than the classical gel permeation chromatography technique (GPC). The calculation, however, still has so
## Abstract Both genetic algorithms (GAs) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used in the field of computational electromagnetics as the most powerful optimizing tools. In this paper, a simple and efficient method is presented to handle the problem of competing convention while training
