In industrial countries, people spend most of their time indoors. Stringent heat-insulation measures in combination with deficient ventilation have a negative impact on indoor air quality [1]. Integration or retrofitting of a photocatalytic oxidation or PCO reactor into continuous flow ... Read More
The aim of this paper is to optimize with COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation, the design geometry of a near field biosensor which could be used for dielectrophoretic (DEP) immobilization and simultaneous sensing of biomolecules of the order of nanometers to micrometers. COMSOL Multiphysics® ... Read More
During growth, tissue expands and deforms. Given its elastic properties, stresses emerge in an expanding and deforming tissue. Cell rearrangements can dissipate these stresses and numerous experiments confirm the viscoelastic properties of tissues. On long time scales, as characteristic ... Read More
Knee joints are often subject to high loads, which can lead to injury, malalignment, and the progression of osteoarthritis in patients. To better understand the behavior, and the effect of meniscal damage and different meniscectomy repair approaches, a 3D structural mechanics model of a ... Read More
Silver and gold nanoparticles are widely used in the field of surface enhanced raman spectroscopy (SERS) because of the unique plasmonic properties. Plasmons or surface plasmon resonance result from the wavelength dependent dielectric properties of noble metals like Ag, Au, Pt etc., ... Read More
Neural electrodes for sensing neurotransmitters are embedded within the brain, detecting electrical signals produced by kinetic reaction of neurotransmitters in the brain. Sensing utilizes cyclic voltammetry (CV), which applies sweeping potentials to identify chemical kinetics of ... Read More
Thermal ablation is rapidly becoming a standard of care for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), a cardiac disorder characterized by irregular heart rhythm and estimated to impact more than 33 million people worldwide (Chugh et al. Circulation (2013)). AtriCure is a company that ... Read More
Venovenous extracorporeal life support (VV-ECLS) provides gas exchange support for severe lung failure by using an extracorporeal circuit consisting of a blood pump and an artificial membrane lung. Blood is withdrawn from a cannula placed into the inferior vena cava, and returned from ... Read More
