In recent years, the development of artificial intelligence has enabled some disruptive innovations by changing the way research is conducted. More specifically, in computer science, a new way of developing algorithms has emerged, based on machine learning techniques. The core idea is to ... En savoir plus

The intestine, a muscular, tubular organ within the digestive system is responsible for the final stages of food processing. The cyclic material transport generates a shear stress on the intestinal lining known as epithelium. Recently, the application of shear stress on epithelial cells ... En savoir plus

In recent years, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has played a key role in the characterisation of surface structures and materials at the microscopic level. One of the most important aspects of AFM image analysis is the reliable provision of pore size and cross-linking rate data. AFM uses ... En savoir plus

High power consumption chips have already become a major challenge for modern processors causing low thermal performances. Existing thermal solutions are not able to solve these high temperature issues efficiently. Two-phase cooling devices such as heat pipes and vapor chambers have ... En savoir plus

Materials such as aluminium with high thermal and electrical conductivities are of industrial interest, particularly for the automotive industry in the current context of increasing production of electric vehicles. The reflective properties of this material make it difficult to process ... En savoir plus

Macroscopic modeling of fluid flow and thermal diffusion, in a porous medium, requires the description of equivalent properties (permeability, conductivity and diffusivity). However, depending on the microstructure topology of the porous medium and the fluid flow regime at the ... En savoir plus

A digital twin is a virtual set of information replicating its physical counterpart at the utmost fidelity. Digital and physical twin benefit from bi-directional data exchange that occurs in real time and over the whole process lifecycle. Until now, experts in the design phase have ... En savoir plus

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 ... En savoir plus

In this work, the modeling of an industrial scale, single tube, packed bed reactor for steam reforming (SR) application, typically used to provide hydrogen for ammonia synthesis, is discussed. The tightly coupled mass, energy, and momentum equations used to describe the system have been ... En savoir plus

Smouldering is flameless combustion which depends on an exothermic surface reaction occurring within a porous medium. It is harnessed by engineers to destroy organic liquid wastes in soil as the technology Self-sustaining Treatment for Active Remediation (STAR). During this remediation ... En savoir plus
