Irradiation of various surface materials by ultra-short laser radiation, typically with pulse widths of 10-300 fs, results in the development of Laser-induced self-organized periodic surface structures (ripples). The periodicity of these structures ranges from the wavelength <em>λ ... Read More
Additive manufacturing gathers technologies where near net shape components are produced by depositing successive layers of materials. Among these technologies, the Layer Beam Melting (LBM) process – often referred to as Selective Laser Melting (SLM) – is garnering industrial interest, ... Read More
We present here the development of an optical human eye model – based on Ray Optics module in order to reproduce the eye optical properties. Current simulations in literature do not fully cover the light propagation inside all parts of the eye by taking into account the absorption but ... Read More
Surface plasmons in metal rectangular gratings can form bands and band gaps in their dispersion relations, analogous to those in photonic band-gap crystals and electronic bands in semiconductors. Introducing a dielectric coating atop the metal redshifts the plasmonic band gap, enabling a ... Read More
Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is a non-contact direct-write technique that enables the deposition of small volumes of material into user-defined high-resolution patterns with a wide range of structural and functional materials. There are many variations of the LIFT process, each ... Read More
The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become an established numerical tool used for different academic and industrial purposes. It allows the prediction of weld pool geometry, thermal cycle, final distortion and residual stress field during and after fusion welding. The capability of the ... Read More
Synthetic jet actuators enhance flow control by generating pulsatile jets with zero net mass flux. There is a need to develop a computationally inexpensive model that can generate optimal geometric actuator designs of maximum jet performance. This work investigates the multi-physics ... Read More
Structural colors of photonic crystals demonstrate significant application value in optical sensing and anti-counterfeiting due to their high stability and environmental friendliness. However, current research still lacks systematic investigation into the structure-property relationship ... Read More
This work investigates the ablation of a copper surface caused by the irradiation of a 220 ns laser pulse. Our focus is on the heat transport within the copper and takes the proceeding vaporization of surface substance into account. Our model ignores plasma dynamics and simulates the ... Read More
Acoustophoresis is a promising technology for the downstream processing of microalgae biorefineries(Zhang et al., 2025). By generating acoustic radiation forces and acoustic streaming, it enables precise manipulation of particles within an acoustic standing field of a microfluidic chip ... Read More
