In inductive heating simulations the electromagnetic properties of the steel have a significant impact on the temperature pattern along the heated product. Indeed, taking into account the non-linearity of the ferromagnetic material properties is a key point to have relevant simulation ... Read More
The high luminosity large hadron collider (HL-LHC) project aims at increasing the integrated luminosity by a factor of 10 from its original value (from 300 to 3000 fb-1) leading to the potential extension of scientific discoveries. To attain this goal, important upgrades will take place ... Read More
Introduction: The use of microwave energy for thermal cracking (from thermal stress and water pore pressure) of lignite-coal briquettes increases the lignite friability [1] and is beneficial for later chemical treatment inside a gasifier (for methanol production for example). An ... Read More
Dielectric heating is an important, widely employed electromagnetic heating technology utilized by consumers, small businesses and industry. This model is used to explore the physical differences manifested when different frequencies are utilized to execute the heat generation process on ... Read More
Customers typically prepare sandwiches using a microwave oven to heat a frozen sandwich. This causes huge temperature variations and quality issues due to multicomponent with different dielectric and physical properties and with phase changes at different freezing points in the heating ...

Probing ultrafast processes over subpicosecond and picosecond time scales provides fundamental insight into the nature of materials. We have experimentally demonstrated terahertz (THz)-pulse-induced tunneling in a scanning tunneling microscope (THz-STM) to image surfaces with ... Read More
The current therapies available to treat cancer patients are surgical operation and chemo therapy. The drawbacks are the side effects caused by these therapies. Hyperthermia is a treatment technique based on deactivation of cancer cells by raising the temperature in the range of 43 ºC ... Read More
This work presents an alternative method for curing cork stoppers based on microwave radiation, which is energetically more efficient, where it is possible to accelerate the reaction rate and therefore reduce the cure time comparatively with conventional curing methods. The microwave ... Read More
MRI offers many advantages over other modalities and its lack of ionizing radiation is important for children, but can be limited by the radio-frequency (RF) coils available. This work calculates Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) and homogeneity of the RF transmit field (B1+) when imaging ... Read More
SAFARI is a far-infrared imaging spectrometer for the Japanese satellite observatory SPICA. SAFARI covers the wavelength range 34—210 μm (1.4—8.8 THz) using Transition-Edge-Sensor (TES) bolometers. We have built a test facility to qualify and characterize the SAFARI focal plane units ... Read More
