Thermal ablation is a treatment option in oncology that can be used to target primary and metastatic cancers. In this approach, high temperature heating is administered at the target tumor site to induce coagulative necrosis of malignant cells. One minimally invasive method for ... Read More
The five year survival rate for malignant brain and central nervous system cancer was estimated at 35% between 2000 and 2015. Deep brain tumors can be unsuited for conventional surgical intervention. One minimally invasive treatment option is interstitial needle-based therapeutic ... Read More
Technologies based on micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) present advantages for rheological applications as they enable the fabrication of smaller sensors with faster response times. In this work we propose fabrication parameters and simulation of a MEMS viscometer. This research ... Read More
FT wind sensors measure wind speed and direction using an acoustic field superimposed on a flow field in an acoustic resonator equipped with three piezoelectric transducers. The study proposed here focuses on the acoustic resonance technology of a simplified wind sensor geometry, and how ... Read More
Depletion layer MEMS actuators have been demonstrated in the past in p-n junctions as well as Schottky barrier interfaces to be effective transducers for internal transduction of high Q MEMS resonators without the need for piezoelectric materials or small resonator-electrode gaps. ... 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
Nondestructive inspection (NDI) of damages (e.g., imperfect or degraded bonding lines) or the remaining strength of adhesively bonded lap joints is critical for the operational safety of aircrafts and vehicles. It remains a challenge to use the conventional NDI to quantitatively infer ... Read More
High power, air-coupled ultrasound has gained significant interest from the research community due to the rise in applications such as non-contact particle manipulation, haptic feedback, and sound steering. A growing number of researchers are utilizing transducers designed for proximity ... Read More
Micro-machined ultrasound transducers have a wide range of applications. As a sensor or actuator they can be used for measuring fluid speed and direction, to mix and excite particles (sonication), for taking images (ultrasonography), for non-destructive testing and many other purposes in ...
