System for in-situ control of the ion angular distribution function (IADF) in plasma reactor is modeled. Typical IADF depends on the pressure, bias and excitation frequency. It is formed due to a difference in the physical properties of the plasma and sheath domains. The IADF is modified ... Read More

Because of the complex nature of geomaterials and presence of solid and fluid within a single system, it is crucial to consider all the physics involved within the geomaterial system. A fully coupled thermo-hydromechanical model is developed. The model consists of a three-phase flow ... Read More

This work is concerned with the study of the asymmetrical phenomenon observed in three-phase transformers during the standard short-circuit test. The purpose of our work is to see if the asymmetric measurements can be predicted with the use of 2D finite-element models. To this end, we ... Read More

In this paper it is shown how the equivalent circuit parameters of a MEMS resonator can be simply obtained from an eigenfrequency simulation. Additionally, it is demonstrated that the Q-factor as a result of support losses in a MEMS resonator can be determined using a matched boundary ... Read More

We present a model for plant dispersal in agricultural landscapes to evaluate the gene dispersal from genetically modified (GM) plants. Dispersal from seed and pollen is modeled with partial differential equations. In scenarios, we investigated the effect of roadside application of non ... Read More

Non-charge-based logic is the notion that an electron can be trapped and its spin manipulated through application of gate voltages. Numerical simulations of Spin Single Electron Transistors (SSET) at University at Albany, aimed at practical development of post-CMOS concepts and devices ... Read More

Due to the coupling of foam flow with foam generation step, the earlier studies on foam flow have not led to consistent results. An increase in flow rate to obtain ?P vs. Q data changes the foam under investigation itself. The controlled experiments carried out earlier in our group ... Read More

A portable device that can identify protein and peptides real time in complex biological systems such as human bodily fluids reliably and accurately is in high demand to properly diagnose and treat medical conditions. Lynntech has developed an innovative Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based ... Read More

COMSOL analysis of the acoustic modes of two different Combustion Wind Tunnel Facility’s test sections was conducted in this project. The test sections are rectangular ducts, therefore the mathematical expressions to predict the longitudinal and transverse modes inside a tube were used ... Read More

This study presents the simulation of transport phenomena in the Horstberg geothermal system in the North German Basin. The Horstberg geothermal system composed of a subsurface reservoir and a borehole. The borehole was completed in a multilayer sandstone reservoir and an induced ... Read More
