Electric field can bring liquid in motion and thus influence heat transfer. Electro-convection (EC) can be caused by electric forces acting on a liquid, even in absence of space charge. Here, we studied heat transfer in a metal vessel filled by oil, with a submersed high voltage ... Read More
The finite element method applied to the k-epsilon turbulence model is used to investigate the two-stream turbulent mixing layer. Whereas the model is known as one of the most popular of the turbulence models to date, the model has yet to be applied to the classical mixing layer problem ... Read More
Elastocaloric heating/cooling takes advantage of the structural changes in shape memory alloys (SMAs) that release and absorb heat when a strain is applied over a transition temperature. Heating/cooling cycles that use SMAs offer a potential solution to issues associated with the use of ... Read More
The structural design of temporary storage facilities for radioactive waste generally requires the fulfillment of highly severe performance criteria if compared to conventional buildings. This work focuses on the study of the behavior of a steel door subject to the impact of extreme wind ... Read More
The quality of coatings obtained by means of thermal spraying depends strongly on the mechanism of the interaction between the molten droplets and the surface to be covered. The aim of the present study is to simulate the impact of a droplet onto a substrate, in order to have a good ... Read More
This work is focused on Micropump optimization for drug delivery application. Diabetes is one of the widely pervaded diseases. Among the side effects of hyperglycemia is the weakness of the whole body, so the patient will be unable to inject manually the drug. Therefore, Micropumps are ... Read More
Organogenesis, the genesis of organs during embryonic development, is an active research field involving biologists, mathematicians and computational researchers. Fundamental questions of the formation of shape and the control of growth are still not answered. We focus on the development ... Read More
Abstract: Gifford-McMahon (GM) refrigerator based on gas expansion effect can provide a cooling temperature below 4.2 K, which is widely used to cool superconducting magnets for applications such as magnetic resonance imaging and to provide low temperature environment for condensed ... Read More
Adaptive optics control using liquid filled membrane lens is based on the principle of deflection of polymeric membrane. Controlled deflection in membrane leads to controlled focal length. This enhances the focus tuning ability of the system at the same time make optical system compact ... Read More
Liquid transport in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices occurs through a microchannel that uses an electroosmotic flow actuation mechanism. This method has a plug-like velocity profile, which is ideal in species transport and in wall-bounded reactions. Under substantial joule heating, it is not ... Read More
