Previously researchers have modeled the human body using CAD software to create geometries that are approximately the same shape as the human body. While these CAD designs appear similar, they do not account for complex organ anatomy or sudden changes at the skin surface. Now, the human ... En savoir plus
In order to qualify experiments for in-vessel irradiation at the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, safety assessments need to be completed and documented to ensure adequate target cooling and structural integrity. Previously, finite element analysis ... En savoir plus
Simulation based learning modules can be effectively introduced to a large audience with customization. The simulation modules can essentially engage learners from diverse background and efficiently introduce the quantitative approaches to non-engineers. Moreover, those can greatly help ...

Filament yarns are a collection of microfibers of set diameter and material held together by tension and/or intra-filament attraction. This results in a stacking patterns which can be random with different degrees of freedom. A slight change in tension or attractive forces may mean a ... En savoir plus
As minimally invasive and robotic surgical devices get smaller, designing precise energy delivery to create the desired tissue effect becomes a key component in product development. With many interdependent physical phenomena occurring simultaneously, it becomes necessary to use tools ... En savoir plus
Solar cooling systems based on evaporation and absorption processes have been actively studied and different mechanisms based on various refrigerants are designed and developed. Amongst these systems, a single-stage close cycle design utilizing lithium bromide salt and water (LiBr-H2O) ... En savoir plus
An energy pile harvests geothermal energy to heat and cool a building by integrating ground heat exchanger (GHX) pipes into the building’s deep foundation, and extracts heat from the ground in the winter to heat buildings and injects heat into the ground during the summer. In areas with ... En savoir plus
Advances in protective and restorative biotherapies have created new opportunities to address vestibular disorders, deafness, and noise induced-, sensorineural-, and age-related hearing loss. Controllable and implantable drug delivery micropumps are essential for therapy development in ... En savoir plus
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to treat chronic pain. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is emitted through a probe that is placed near a sensory nerve in the region of pain. The RF energy excites the nearby ions in the tissue causing them to ... En savoir plus
Photocatalysis has received considerable attention in recent years with a huge potential in air purification applications. This work focusses on the semi-passive use of photocatalytic surfaces in streets as an innovative method for removing anthropogenic pollutants (especially volatile ... En savoir plus
