In our experiments with manipulating cells with DEP, we noted that some cells are constantly spining. By hypothesing that the cell spining is caused by the non-circular shape of the cell body and the off-centered location of its nucleus and that the rotation direction depends on the ... Read More
Photonic technique such as the whispering gallery mode (WGM) is often used for detection of small particles like bacteria and viruses. It offers good detection sensitivity and is advantageous over other detection techniques because the detection can be label free. However, the detection ... Read More
In using DEP for particle manipulation, researchers often use a formula to calculate the DEP forces in which the forces are proportional to the particle radius to the third power. This formula assumes that the electrical field, E, will not be affected by the presence of a particle, no ... Read More
Liquid transport in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices occurs through a microchannel that uses an electroosmotic flow actuation mechanism. This method has a plug-like velocity profile, which is ideal in species transport and in wall-bounded reactions. Under substantial joule heating, it is not ... Read More
Structural analysis is performed to check the durability of Engine mounts for a given load and support conditions. The engine mount bracket is subjected to loads primarily due to weight of the powertrain and the unbalanced torque. In this analysis, the component is optimized such that ... Read More
A Helmholtz resonator type acoustic sensor has been designed using analytical method and finite element modeling software, COMSOL Multiphysics®. The acoustic sensor is an aluminium double frustum, hour glass, shaped with the resonator at the bottom and an acoustic horn above to amplify ... Read More
This paper demonstrates the design of a tunable MEMS capacitor with two plates (one movable and one fixed). The response time obtained is 5μs. The tunable capacitor plays an important role in RF circuits. We focus on a tunable capacitor simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics®. In an ... Read More
Monitoring the Central aorta is a more effective way to diagnose cardiovascular diseases than conventional techniques. Approximately, six million people in the world are currently living with aortic aneurysm and every year 750,000 new cases are diagnosed. This paper presents the design ... Read More
