Currently in the semiconductor industry more than 80% of silicon crystal are grown by the Czochralski (Cz) method. In this method, fused silica (SiO2) crucibles and graphite heaters are used inside furnaces. The surface of the crucibles, which are in contact with the molten silicon, is ... Read More
The nature of dark matter remains one of the most pressing puzzles in physics. The MAgnetized Disc and Mirror Axion eXperiment (MADMAX) is a dielectric haloscope dedicated to the search for QCD axion dark matter in the mass range of 40 - 400 µeV. The design of the experiment consists of ... Read More
Concentration polarization (CP) is a common problem in membrane filtration. It is caused by the convective transport of large molecules towards the membrane surface, however while the solvent passes the membrane as permeate, the molecules are retained and accumulate at the membrane ... Read More
Aluminum production potlines operate under significant amperage in a range of 200 kA – 600 kA. High electrical DC currents induce strong magnetic fields. MHD stability, which is a result of electrical current and magnetic field interaction within aluminum reduction cell, is one of highly ... Read More
This study models the energy harvesting reached from an air flow transportation through the flapping of a cantilever polymer flag. The mechanical resonance of the flag is created by a Venturi channel. The flag is charged by triboelectrification and its flapping between two electrodes ... Read More
Circular particle accelerators are powerful tools used in the field of high-energy physics to investigate the nature of the matter. They use strong magnetic fields to bend and focus the particle beams and generate collisions, which are thoroughly analyzed. New physical phenomena may be ... Read More
Resistance-sintering can be used in a powder metallurgy process as the heating step to consolidate a metallic compact previously obtained by pressing a powder-alloy. This fast-sintering process consolidates electrically conductive powders by simultaneous application of pressure and ... Read More
In this paper, a numerical study is conducted on the melting and solidification process of metal foam/paraffin wax with cyclic heating and cooling. A mathematical model based on the Brinkman-Frochheimer extended Darcy equation and the local thermal non-equilibrium model (LTNE) is ... Read More
