Electroporation is the process of creating temporary hydrophilic pores in the cell membrane by applying an external electric field of specific strength and duration. It is used for gene transfection, and transport of other useful biomolecules and therapeutic drugs into the cell. When a ... Read More
A power supply is generally used in many electrical devices. In order to deliver uniform power irrespective of time variation, most plasma equipment also uses a power source. Therefore, the power condition in plasma simulations is essential. In time-dependent models using a current ... Read More
The most common method for in-situ recovery of oil sands is Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD). SAGD is based on injecting pressurized steam into the ground to heat up the highly viscous bitumen and reduce its viscosity allowing oil to flow. This process is energy and emissions ... Read More
In this research work, we developed a virtual model to examine the electrical conductivity of multilayered thin films when positioned above a single layer and multilayers of graphene, and flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. Additional structured thin films were ... Read More
Offshore operations, using Robotically Operated Vehicles (ROVs) in areas with high ambient temperatures require ampacity limitations to be established. Specifically, the risk of overheating ROV umbilicals and tethers when running at high power, due to multiple layers on winch drums is a ... Read More
Emerging battery technologies are addressing applications of renewable and fossil fuel energy sources since they can store and release energy on demand. In recent years significant strides have been made in lithium battery technology. Lithium batteries are the primary sources of power in ... Read More
Modeling the effects of electromagnetic fields on biological structures on the order of the body and tissues to the micro (1e-6)-and nano (1e-9) level of cells and sub-cellular structures presents formidable challenges. We share the major lessons we have learned using COMSOL ... Read More
Modern home audio products are starting to feature dedicated upward firing height channel speakers, which are a combination of unique physical speaker design and special signal processing, to reproduce audio as if the sound source is located in the ceiling. Due to slim form factor design ... Read More
