Chemical reactions performed under microwave irradiation often have high reaction rates and high selectivities, which enable reactor sizes to be compact and processes to be energy-conserving. A microwave oven is widely used for microwave chemical processing and chemical synthesis. The ... Read More
Air supply hoses are also predominantly used in the medical industry to aid in patient oxygen intake. In many situations, the outside of the hose can be contaminated with chemicals, especially if the hose lies on the ground in an environment where chemicals are easily found. Permeation ... Read More
The finite element method was used for simulating the dielectric response of polymer matrix dielectric composites with randomly and evenly distributed fillers. The dielectric simulation of the composite materials was conducted using a time harmonic-electric current solver in the AC/DC ... Read More
In the poster you can see a project where using computational tools like the COMSOL Multiphysics® software, hydrodynamics of a photo electrocatalytic reactor was studied. It was evident that the influential factor is the geometry of inlet and exit header. Therefore, these changes were ... Read More
The fixed beds have the advantage of large heat transfer area, for they are used in some designs of innovative nuclear reactors as the reactor FBNR. Inside of study of fixed beds is important to define the following parameters: flow minimum and velocity profile of cooling fluid, ... Read More
Two different Finite Element Method (FEM) models of the CANDU® nuclear fuel channels were compared against experimental data to determine if the curvature of the fuel channels is necessary to consider for measurements of the pressure tube to calandria tube gap. The different models were ... Read More
An organic-inorganic dual-channel sensor makes a strong chemical gas sensor because this device design combines the high chemical sensitivities and selectivity of organic semiconductors [1-4] with the superior electrical performance and convenient integration of silicon semiconductors. ...

The brain is a heterogeneous porous medium with regions of anisotropy. Measurements of tortuosity (λ) showed that diffusion in gray matter (e.g. striatum) is isotropic (λ = 1.65), whereas it is anisotropic in white matter (e.g. corpus callosum) (λparallel = 1.38, λperpendicular = 1.80) ...

At the 2006 Winter Olympics, the jump length difference between first and second place was only 5cm. This illustrates why ski jumpers are constantly tinkering with their posture in order to gain even the smallest of advantages. Experiments such as those shown in Figures 1 and 2 (b), ... Read More
Background: Even though the direct nose-to-brain drug delivery has multiple advantages, its application is limited by the low delivery efficiency (<1%) to the olfactory region with standard nasal devices. Novel delivery techniques are needed that can deliver clinically relevant dosage ... Read More
