Solar energy storage has been an extensive research topic among the several thermal energy applications over the past three decades. Thermal energy storage (TES) systems in general, improve the energy efficiency of systems and sustainability of buildings by reducing the mismatch between ... En savoir plus
Navy systems, such as turbine engines, produce large quantities of thermal energy. This energy is a byproduct of the work produced by the engine during operation and is typically rejected to its surroundings. The temperature difference between the turbines and the ocean is substantial ... En savoir plus
As a part of the Pan-Canadian framework for clean growth, Canada is intent on meeting its 2030 emission targets for which 17% of Canada’s total Green House Gas emissions come from buildings. Given this challenge, emphasis is being placed on developing building designs having greatly ... En savoir plus
Additive manufacturing technology is becoming more popular for the fabrication of metal products as it offers rapid prototyping and large design freedom. However, part quality of components fabricated by current additive manufacturing technology is not comparable to that produced by ... En savoir plus
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
