Seasonal thermal energy storage systems are key enablers of future low-carbon and flexible energy infrastructures. Among the different storage technologies, water-gravel thermal energy storage (WGTES) offers a robust, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable solution for large ... Read More
Synthetic jet actuators enhance flow control by generating pulsatile jets with zero net mass flux. There is a need to develop a computationally inexpensive model that can generate optimal geometric actuator designs of maximum jet performance. This work investigates the multi-physics ... Read More
Freeze-drying is a widespread technology particularly suitable for heat-sensitive materials such as pharmaceuticals that could be damaged by the high temperature required by traditional drying treatments. A freeze-dryer is composed of two chambers: drying chamber and condenser, connected ... Read More
Ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) is extensively used in fields like medicine, oil and gas, and aerospace to inspect materials without causing damage. However, developing experimental setups and prototypes can be costly and time-consuming. This study employs advanced computational ... Read More
MEMS microphones have been widely adopted in a variety of consumer electronic systems. To ensure clear speech transmission and avoid degradation of important signals, careful tuning of microphone port geometry is essential to mitigate wind-induced airborne noise. This additional noise ... Read More
Electroformed Ni-based 3D electrodes (NiE3) offer a novel approach to enhancing alkaline electrolysis performance by increasing surface area and active sites, leading to intensified electrolysis reactions and improved efficiency. However, inefficient bubble release from the produced ... Read More
This paper focuses on the acoustic modeling and simulation of a simplified minute repeater watch using the Boundary Element Method (BEM). The overarching objective is to optimize the hammer's impact location on the watch's gong (timbre) to enhance both the radiated acoustic intensity and ... Read More
INTRODUCTION: The paper illustrates the use of COMSOL for obtaining the solution Ψ(x,y,t) as a solution to the time dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). COMSOL previously was used to solve the time dependent NLSE in Ref.[1] as applied to quantum mechanics, however this is the ... Read More
Recognized for its potential as a sustainable food source, seaweed farming has become pivotal in tackling future food security concerns, necessitating innovative solutions to achieve optimal, high-yield, and commercially viable production [1]. This work addresses gaps in aquaculture ... Read More
Dams, levees, and dikes play a critical role in flood prevention. There can be simple earthen embankments or engineered designs with low permeable cores and/or drainage facilities. Unlike cement dams there is flow of water in earthen embankments. The latter are unsaturated in the upper ... Read More
