This paper focuses on the acoustic modeling and simulation of a simplified minute repeater watch using the Boundary Element Method (BEM). The overarching objective is to optimize the hammer's impact location on the watch's gong (timbre) to enhance both the radiated acoustic intensity and ... Read More
Clayey soils and rocks are often used to secure contaminants, dissolved in the interstitial water, or fluids immiscible with water, because of their hydraulic properties (very low permeability and high water retention capabilities, see e.g. McCartney et al., 2016). However, their hydro ... Read More
MEMS microphones have been widely adopted in a variety of consumer electronic systems. To ensure clear speech transmission and avoid degradation of important signals, careful tuning of microphone port geometry is essential to mitigate wind-induced airborne noise. This additional noise ... Read More
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAAs) are balloonings of the descending aorta. Surgical intervention only occurs when the aneurysm growth exceeds a certain threshold, which is slightly different between men and women. Early-stage patients are often asymptomatic, and there is no prediction ... Read More
As the demand for lightweight fibrous insulation materials in aerospace [1] and automotive [2] applications increases due to their benefits in reducing carbon footprints and costs [3], accurate prediction of thermal properties becomes crucial, particularly before production. The thermal ... Read More
INTRODUCTION: The paper illustrates the use of COMSOL for obtaining the solution Ψ(x,y,t) as a solution to the time dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). COMSOL previously was used to solve the time dependent NLSE in Ref.[1] as applied to quantum mechanics, however this is the ... Read More
Dams, levees, and dikes play a critical role in flood prevention. There can be simple earthen embankments or engineered designs with low permeable cores and/or drainage facilities. Unlike cement dams there is flow of water in earthen embankments. The latter are unsaturated in the upper ... Read More
Recognized for its potential as a sustainable food source, seaweed farming has become pivotal in tackling future food security concerns, necessitating innovative solutions to achieve optimal, high-yield, and commercially viable production [1]. This work addresses gaps in aquaculture ... Read More
Thermal runaway (TR) is a critical safety hazard in lithium-ion battery systems, particularly in large energy storage installations and electric transportation applications. TR occurs when the cell temperature exceeds a certain threshold value, triggering a series of exothermic ... Read More
As the global energy transition accelerates, large-scale seasonal thermal energy storage systems are becoming critical components of future sustainable and resilient district heating networks. Among various storage technologies, cavern thermal energy storage (CTES) offers a promising ... Read More
