The Yellowstone Volcanic Complex (YVC) in Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming, USA) attracts intense geological interest, as it ranks as one of the largest active continental silicic volcanic fields worldwide. Despite extensive research on the region's high heat flow and abundant ... Read More
The expression <em>adaptive optics</em> was initially termed for the technology used in the telescopes to deform the mirrors to allow for phase correction of the incoming light. Soon, the adaptive optics was also implemented in microscopes, optical communication systems and ... Read More
The present work explores the integration of guided mode resonance (GMR) structures and topological photonics, characterized by the presence of Jackiw-Rebbi (J-R) solution. The developed surface enhanced GMR structure may serve as a platform for refractive index sensing across various ... Read More
Thermal sterilization is a critical process in the food industry as it ensures the safety and shelf-life of food products for long-term preservation by eliminating all microorganisms and their spores from a food product. This process requires huge energy and water consumption, and ... Read More
Electrothermal actuators convert an electrical signal into a mechanical signal via Joule heating. Due to their simplicity and reliability, electrothermal actuators are commonly used in various fields across length scales: from human-scale soft robotics to nanometer-scale sensors. We ... Read More
Condenser microphones will have an electrical output for any displacement of the membrane relative to the back plate, which is usually bound to the microphone housing. For the typical use case, a pressure input will create a pressure difference across the membrane, which causes a ... Read More
Package material for liquid food packages typically features a multilayered structure with paperboard as a core material and protective polymer layers towards the product and the ambient. Aseptic food packages require an additional barrier layer comprising a thin aluminum layer. Aluminum ... Read More
In some power electronic applications the available coolant temperature is close to maximum and controlling operating temperature becomes more challenging, for which new thermal management schemes must be considered. COMSOL predicts the 3D fluid behavior and 3D temperature distribution ... Read More
This study investigates the shock boundary layer interaction occurring at the base of a double sharp fin. The base geometry is of particular interest, with comparisons made between flat and semi-cylindrical bases. The flow field is characterized via numerical simulations and ... Read More
The current general context for green production and decarbonation prompts considering alternative solutions to produce high added value byproducts from gas decomposition without producing CO2. Steam Reforming or Combustion processes, widely applied in Industry, need H2O or O2 to ... Read More
