According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data, 35 % of US adults aged 40 years and older have evidence of balance dysfunction based on the modified Romberg test. In this vestibular dysfunction, patients are not able to see stabilized images on their retina during ... Read More
Utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) generation facilities are located in desert environments throughout the world to take advantage of the high availability of sunlight in these areas. Unfortunately, naturally occurring sandstorms in these deserts often ... Read More
An acoustic energy harvesting system at low frequency (~200 Hz) using lead zirconate titanate (PZT) piezoelectric cantilever plates placed inside of a quarter-wavelength straight-tube resonator has previously been studied using COMSOL and verified experimentally. When an incident ... Read More
In electrochemical machining process, it is very important to control electrolyte flow field to remove contamination such as slug, or gas to be generated by the machining process as well as heat control for electrolyte, machining tool and work piece. To reduce the overcut of workpiece, ... Read More
Mid-infrared, which interacts with most of the chemicals and creates spectra with functional group and fingerprint information, is widely used as a chemical sensing method for a variety of applications, including biomedical testing, quality control in electronics manufacturing and food ...

Advances in 3D display technology relies heavily on the birefringence of light as it propagates through various optical components such as quarter-wave plates. While Jones matrix formulation is commonly employed as a convenient means to study optical systems involving such optical ... Read More
RF NEMS Magnetoelectric (ME) Sensor with a ferromagnetic (FeGaB)/ piezoelectric (AlN) thin film heterostructure is simulated, fabricated and measured in this work. To analyze the response of the ME structures, the coupling between the magnetic, elastic and electric field in the two ... Read More
The paper illustrates the use of COMSOL (via the “Coefficient-Form PDE” option) for obtaining the relativistic quantum mechanics wave function Ψm(x,y,z,t), m=1,4 as a solution to the time dependent Dirac equations. Once having Ψm(x,y,z,t), it can be used to compute the probability ... Read More
Electroporation is a highly efficient cellular transfection method which is used to inject molecules into living cells. The electroporation involves creating temporary pores in cell membranes using an electrical field. It has been successfully utilized in medicine and biology for ... Read More
Cancer is one of the leading causes of deaths worldwide. According to the American Cancer Society, there will be about 700,000 cancer related deaths in US in 2017. Cancer mortality will be reduced if it is detected and treated at the early stages. Previous studies have shown that ... Read More
