To consider effective counter measures against ground water contaminated with dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) such as chlorinated solvents, it is first important to understand the mechanism of their migration in heterogeneous aquifer. In addition, numerical analysis models to ... Read More
Ion mobility spectrometry provides fast detection of very low concentrations of chemical substances. Simple instrumentation combined with high sensitivity and high selectivity are the advantages of this technique. One well established field of application is the detection of hazardous ... Read More
Piezoelectric energy conversion has received great attention for vibration-to-electric energy conversion over the last five years. A typical piezoelectric energy harvester is a unimorph or a bimorph cantilever located on a vibrating host structure, to generate electrical energy from base ... Read More
The disk resonator gyroscope (DRG) is a meso-scale, high performance, compact and planar new generation Coriolis vibratory gyroscope which is suitable for space applications. Angular rate measurement utilizes the precession of a pair of degenerate modes of a perfectly balanced ... Read More
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) are guided electromagnetic modes of a metal/dielectric interface. These surface electromagnetic waves arise through the coupling of the incident electromagnetic radiation with the collective charge-density oscillations of the free electrons in a metal. ... Read More
A new type of MRI compatible intracranial electrode based on Polymer Thick Film (PTF) is presented and studied using COMSOL Multiphysics. The geometry considered was a two-dimensional cross section cut of 5 mm thick electrodes with 5 cm leads on top of a 2×10 cm slab representing ... Read More
The assessment of the seismic safety of gravity dams is a topic of great importance in civil engineering. In this paper, fluid structure interaction modeling of gravity dams during earthquakes is investigated. In particular, this work aims to provide physical significance of a plan ... Read More
Acoustic wave propagation due to the breakage or slippage of reinforced wire in water-filled prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) attracts interest in non-destructive pipe testing. Current practice of acoustic emission (AE) detection and wire-break related events (WRE) recognition ... Read More
An important yet rarely explored problem in room acoustics is how to correlate the decay times of modal resonances to the acoustic properties of the boundaries (walls). The room response is often described by reverberation times, but the reverberation model breaks down at low frequency, ... Read More
The problem of an unbalanced mechanical torque signal generation using nonpolar repulsion techniques is studied. To achieve such an unbalanced torque, several stator and rotor geometries, consisting of nonlinear permanent magnet spring batteries are investigated. It can be shown that an ... Read More
