Smouldering is flameless combustion which depends on an exothermic surface reaction occurring within a porous medium. It is harnessed by engineers to destroy organic liquid wastes in soil as the technology Self-sustaining Treatment for Active Remediation (STAR). During this remediation ... Read More
Laser Powered Homogenous Pyrolysis (LPHP), a non-isothermal wall-less plug flow reactor using cw-IR CO2 laser heating by fast vibrational–translational (V–T) energy transfer, is a common technique for high temperature pyrolysis in the gas phase with minimal catalytic effect of hot ... Read More
Photovoltaic (PV) devices on its operational life are exposed to the action of environmental conditions, which can produce damage either chemically or mechanically. For this reason, traditional PV panels are made of different materials including glass, encapsulant, solar cells, backsheet ... Read More
Soft lossy viscoelastic polymers can dissipate significant amounts of energy in the form of heat when subjected to dynamic mechanical stimuli. As a result, structures comprised of such lossy materials may heat up considerably when excited by loads at a frequency that approaches one of ... Read More
Thermal ablation driven by an acoustic heat source has tremendous potential for the treatment of diseased tissue. In many applications, such as treating tumors in the liver, bulk removal of tissue is required, and thermal ablation can reliably cause necrosis for a relatively large tissue ... Read More
During the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process, proteins stored in aqueous solutions are frozen and thawed. Frozen aqueous solutions provide an excellent medium for storing and transporting the protein without degradation. In this work, the freezing and thawing of an aqueous solution ... Read More
Radial fins are widely used in industrial applications to enhance heat transfer. Exact solutions are available for radial fins of simple profiles such as rectangular, concave and convex parabolic, hyperbolic and triangular. However, such solutions may be cumbersome for use in everyday ... Read More
Our group developed an experimental millimetric capsule intended to release chemicals or drugs. The delivery mechanism of such device relies on the thermal expansion of carbon-elastomer composites which deform upon irradiation of light supplied by a Laser diode through an optical fiber. ...
