Phase change materials (PCMs), including shape memory alloys (SMAs), often exhibit thermal hysteresis behavior during phase transitions. Traditional modeling approaches employ binary or threshold-based phase transition models, which is often sufficient for steady-state applications or ... En savoir plus

Simulation has become a critical part of product development, but workflows remain heavily manual and require significant expertise. Engineers often wait months on simulation requests. The delay slows design iterations and hinders early-stage feasibility assessments in the design ... En savoir plus

The integration of plasmonic components into optoelectronic platforms enables promising pathways for high-speed, ultra-compact signal modulation at the nanoscale. In this work, we present a novel all-plasmonic modulator, which leverages localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-induced ... En savoir plus

This study focuses on the acoustic design of a multipurpose hall with a volume of approximately 3,000 m³, which is subject to strict architectural constraints. These constraints limit interventions to the suspended ceiling only. The primary objective is to reduce the reverberation time ... En savoir plus

Large underground mines (LUMs), which constitute over 60% of metal and nonmetal mining operations in the United States, are critical to national infrastructure and materials supply (Bhattacharyya et al., 2023; Gendrue et al., 2021). These mines are characterized by vast entries exceeding ... En savoir plus

Accurate, real-time measurement of arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO₂) is essential for managing respiratory diseases and critical care conditions. Traditional arterial blood sampling for PaO₂ is invasive, painful, and provides intermittent snapshots rather than continuous ... En savoir plus

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 ...

Soft actuators are poised to revolutionize the design of surgical and biomedical devices due to their unique adaptability and gentle interaction with biological tissues. A key challenge in these applications are the large deformations and repetitive cyclic loading during operation, which ... En savoir plus

Wireless power transfer (WPT) systems enable the transfer of electrical energy wirelessly without any physical contact by using magnetic fields generated by time-varying currents. Among several WPT techniques, inductive power transfer (IPT) is the most widely used due to its simplicity ... En savoir plus

This study proposes a digital twin–based thermal management method for cold plate. The goal is to achieve real-time precise control and energy-efficient design. First, a conjugate heat transfer model of the cold plate is developed in the COMSOL Heat Transfer module, and 100 samples of ... En savoir plus
