We have developed a small environmental chamber to expose a sample to adjustable climate conditions. This climate chamber will be used as sample environment for small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments. SANS is a favorable measuring method, to explore structural changes on the ... Read More
Grating couplers are a common optical component for introducing light into chip-based photonic structures. They are used extensively for optical interconnects and optical device integration. A microfluidic diffraction grating coupled waveguide (MDGCW) biosensor applies a grating coupler ... Read More
Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMI) provide a direct communication link between brain and external devices such as speech synthesizers and robotic prosthesis to restore speech and movement in persons affected by Spinal Cord Injuries or neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral ... Read More
FEM (Finite Element Method) modelling software such as COMSOL Multiphysics® can be a powerful tool for modelling the behavior and response of piezoelectric materials and devices [1]. Devices based on piezoelectric crystals are particularly well suited, because the polarization magnitude ... Read More
A finite element model of a total hip replacement (THR) has been developed from the approach of modal analysis. The model is capable of determining the first 15 Eigenmodes of a THR with an artificial bone model. The model was equipped with several different defects to simulate a ... Read More
The photoacoustic (PA) effect consisting of the generation of an acoustic signal based on the absorption of light has already demonstrated its potential for various spectroscopic applications for both gaseous and solid samples. The signal produced during photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) ... Read More
Acoustic wave propagation due to the breakage or slippage of reinforced wire in water-filled prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) attracts interest in non-destructive pipe testing. Current practice of acoustic emission (AE) detection and wire-break related events (WRE) recognition ... Read More
Piezoelectric energy conversion has received great attention for vibration-to-electric energy conversion over the last five years. A typical piezoelectric energy harvester is a unimorph or a bimorph cantilever located on a vibrating host structure, to generate electrical energy from base ... Read More
Optical fibers that can deliver mid-infrared light in a wide wavelength range are in high demand due to their significant potentials in sensors, chemical imaging, optoelectronics and nonlinear optics applications. Semiconductors such as Ge, ZnSe and Si are good infrared-transparent ... Read More
Parallelization of droplet microfluidics is a challenging task because of the complex fluid mechanics coupling between parallel devices. Failure of few droplet generators can influence the size distribution of the final product and the correct operation of the neighbor devices. One of ... Read More
