Electrodermal Activity (EDA) is a measure of changes in the conductivity of the skin. It has have been found to be indicative of the individual’s autonomic nervous activity which is correlated to their stress and emotional state. These conductivity changes are tracked by injecting a ... Read More
A 3-D COMSOL model was established to investigate the heat and mass transfer in a hollow fiber membrane (HFM) module for direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD). Membrane distillation is a separation process that relies on vapor pressure gradients to drive the production of purified ... Read More
Nanoscale pipettes allow for exciting extensions of traditional current- and voltage-clamping electrophysiology experiments. However, bulk electrodynamic properties begin to break down at nanoscale openings, introducing unusual effects that must be understood in order to properly ... Read More
Bioresorbable stents are providing temporary mechanical support to keep a narrowed or blocked coronary artery open and restore the blood flow and will be gradually degraded and resorbed after the healing and remodeling of arterial wall. This new generation of stents has lower rates of ... Read More
In this study, COMSOL Multiphysics was used to simulate DNA separation within a microchannel based on the entropic trapping mechanism. The entropic trapping mechanism involves DNA molecules passing through a series of obstacles in a microchannel and different lengths of DNA exhibiting ... Read More
In this study, a three-dimensional (3-D) phase field model was developed to better understand the parameters impacting the LiFePO4 cathode material in lithium ion batteries. LiFePO4 has a strong tendency to separate into stable high Li+ concentration and low Li+ concentration phases, ... Read More
The erosion of the interior of soil pipes is an important process in the fields of geomechanics and geomorphology. Soil pipes can form in water holding structures like dams and levees, and water flow through these structures becomes concentrated into the soil pipes as they evolve by the ... Read More
The advent of Micro/Nano fluidic technologies has enabled researchers from various fields to use these advancements for analysis and experiments. In this work we present such a device that can be used for analyzing coagulation of blood in a microchannel by measuring the displacement of ... Read More
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
