One of the obstacles preventing photovoltaic and concentrated solar power technologies from scaling up to meet increasing electricity demands is the inevitable dust accumulation on the optical surfaces of solar collectors. The ideal location for solar power is arid environments due to ... Read More
At the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), simulation analysts are often called upon to evaluate designs and manufacturing processes performed in the plant. Precision mechanisms need to be assembled on clean benches that provide laminar airflow to prevent dust contamination. ... Read More
The equatorial region of Titan, the largest satellite of Saturn, has extensive expanses of aeolian dunes revealed in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and suggested to be composed of organics or organic-coated water ice. The dunes are among the youngest surface features and appear to ... Read More
The ever-growing complexity of samples which need to be processed in e.g., environmental and biomedical/biochemical research, demand higher efficiencies of analytical techniques. Liquid chromatography (LC), mass spectrometry, among others, are analytical techniques that revolutionized ... Read More
The Scanning Field Emission Microscopy (SFEM) is a novel technology similar to the better known Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM). In STM, electrons are exchanged between the outermost atom of a sharp tip and the outermost atom of a target over sub-nanometer distances by means of the ... Read More
The aim of this paper is to optimize with COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation, the design geometry of a near field biosensor which could be used for dielectrophoretic (DEP) immobilization and simultaneous sensing of biomolecules of the order of nanometers to micrometers. COMSOL Multiphysics® ... Read More
Vacuum phototriodes (VPT) have been used as photodetectors for many years in particle physics experiments. For example, they were used in the OPAL experiment at LEP and are currently used in the endcap Electromagnetic Calorimeter of the CMS experiment, at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. ... Read More
Worldwide efforts to promote the use of renewable energies include combustion-based technologies that produce substantial amounts of pollutants. In order to control the environmental impact a proper treatment of exhaust gases is required. This study describes the development of a ... Read More
