Piezoelectric materials are substances that can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. This is called the piezoelectric effect. When a piezoelectric material is squeezed or stretched, it creates an electric charge. This is because the material's atoms are ... Read More
When acoustic applications include small geometries, i.e. mm/submillimeter range, so-called thermoviscous effects can greatly affect the pressure response. This paper deals with acoustic topology optimization of such miniature structures with thermoviscous effects taken into account. ... Read More
The current general context for green production and decarbonation prompts considering alternative solutions to produce high added value byproducts from gas decomposition without producing CO2. Steam Reforming or Combustion processes, widely applied in Industry, need H2O or O2 to ... Read More
When a dual probe heat pulse (DPHP) sensor is installed near the soil-atmosphere interface, the basic assumptions of the infinite line heat source (ILS) model and its improvement, the infinite line heat source model with an adiabatic boundary condition (ILS-ABC), might not be satisfied ...

Over the past million years, several cold ages have occurred and thereby caused perma-frost conditions basically all over the present area of Germany. Since in Germany the safe-ty of a nuclear waste repository legally needs to be investigated for a period of one million years, the ground ... Read More
The separation of RBCs is needed in many biomedical devices. RBCs contain hemoglobin, which in turn consists of iron that helps transport oxygen throughout the body. The permeability of deoxygenated red blood cells is about (1 – 3.9e-6). The permeability of oxygenated red blood cells is ... Read More
A fundamental understanding of the transport phenomena in microfluidic channels is critical for systematic design and precise control of such miniaturized devices towards the integration and automation of Lab-on- a-chip devices. Electroosmotic flow is widely used to transport and mix ... Read More
Annular Linear Induction Pump (ALIP) is used for pumping liquid metal in fast reactors and in experimental test facilities. In order to understand the transient behaviour of this pump, a 2-dimensional axisymmetric model in time domain is developed. The transient performance prediction ... Read More
Electromagnetic (EM) flowmeters are important flow sensing devices across industries like oil and gas and power generation. The EM flowmeter works on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. In short, when an ionic fluid like water flows through a pipe, in the ... Read More
Materials such as aluminium with high thermal and electrical conductivities are of industrial interest, particularly for the automotive industry in the current context of increasing production of electric vehicles. The reflective properties of this material make it difficult to process ... Read More
