This paper presents the design and simulation of a thermal sensor using COMSOL Multiphysics® software for the detection of low body temperature syndrome which can allow the early detection of cancer. This sensor is made of an alloy consisting of two materials with different coefficients ... Read More
Nearly seven lakh Indians die of cancer, while over 10 lakh are newly diagnosed with some form of the disease every year. Surgical resection is not always feasible in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Microwave Coagulation Therapy (MCT) has been used as an alternative to resection ... Read More
Thermocouples are widely used in industry for process temperature measurement. Calibration drift is a well-known problem which adversely affects process control, particularly in harsh environments (e.g. high temperature). To overcome this, a mechanism for self-calibration of ... Read More
Conductive Composites such as carbon fiber reinforced composites are increasingly used in safety critical aerospace applications. The catastrophic macro structural failure of composite structures initiates from a micro level failure event such as fiber breaks. The ability to detect ... Read More
In this project, we are aiming towards the development of an impedimetric biosensor based on nanoporous silicon structures for the detection of small molecular size and low weight food toxins (like Aflatoxin). Existing sensors for such toxin detection fail to achieve high sensitivity ... Read More
Eddy current thermography (ECT) is a non-destructive contact-free method of defect detection in a conductive material combining the electromagnetic induction of eddy currents and thermal imaging. This technique uses an excitation system consisting of an inductor with coil(s) carrying ... Read More
The objective of this simulation model is to enhance the thermal behavior in a MEMS Gas-Chromatographer (GC) pre-concentrator for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) carried by Helium gas. The simulation plays a critical role in estimating voltages, thermal time constants, and spatial ... Read More
As the ultrasonic sensor industry evolves towards lower costs, miniaturization, higher integration, and superior performance, Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)-based ultrasonic transducers have emerged as a prominent trend. This article introduces a Piezoelectric Micromachined ... Read More
Tuberculosis is infectious disease caused by various strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The detection is very difficult because their mechanism is not well understood, and it is mainly based on the γ interferon which is normally secreted by the T-cell of the body. The RD1 region is ...
