This report addresses design of a PCB intended for use as a busbar integrated with multiple DC-link (rail) capacitors in a high power inverter. The geometry and current ratings are typical of a 50 kW unit operating at 60kHz in an intermittent mode. First, circuit aspects are analyzed. ... Read More
The research in magnetic confinement fusion is carried out through electromagnetic machines, with a toroidal geometry, where a hot plasma of heavy hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium) is contained in a vacuum vessel. Due to the very high temperatures reached by the plasma, strong ... Read More
Navy systems, such as turbine engines, produce large quantities of thermal energy. This energy is a byproduct of the work produced by the engine during operation and is typically rejected to its surroundings. The temperature difference between the turbines and the ocean is substantial ... Read More
Traditionally, municipal sewer and water agencies have relied on acoustic data loggers and closed-circuit television cameras to inspect pipes for leaks. In addition, the same legacy techniques have been used to certify new and rehabilitated pipes as watertight. Unfortunately, visually ... Read More
Every year, in the United States alone, more than 40,000 infants are born with congenital heart defects (CHD) and an additional 550,000 adults are diagnosed with heart failure. Every year, $110 billion is spent on treating heart attacks and $20-39 billion on heart failure in the US. The ... Read More
Most of the reported studies on the electrical characteristics of biological cells assume that they have simple shapes like spheres or ellipsoids due to the lack of information about their accurate 3D shape. However, the actual shape of a cell can be quite fractal and it must be taken ... Read More
As minimally invasive and robotic surgical devices get smaller, designing precise energy delivery to create the desired tissue effect becomes a key component in product development. With many interdependent physical phenomena occurring simultaneously, it becomes necessary to use tools ... Read More
Solar cooling systems based on evaporation and absorption processes have been actively studied and different mechanisms based on various refrigerants are designed and developed. Amongst these systems, a single-stage close cycle design utilizing lithium bromide salt and water (LiBr-H2O) ... Read More
