In nanofluid delivery, backflow along the needle is a major hurdle to deliver drug-carrying nanofluid to the entire tumor. In theory, any approaches to decrease the overall flow resistance in tumors would facilitate drug delivery. The objective of this study is to develop a theoretical ... En savoir plus

While electrostatic actuators feature prominently among the most widely employed classes of actuators for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), conventional embodiments of these devices (e.g., parallel plate structures) notoriously suffer from several significant drawbacks. Most ... En savoir plus

This research proposed a novel battery thermal management system that utilized the heat pipe coupling composite fin (HPCF) which consisted of aluminum fin, phase change material and liquid cooling tube. By using battery module, heat transfer module and CFD module of COMSOL, the ... En savoir plus

A key challenge in the design of medical devices that interface with blood is to minimize the likelihood of blood damage. Simulating blood flow through a medical device and estimating the likelihood of blood damage is a key step to improving performance and safety, thereby expediting ... En savoir plus

The paper attempts to give a contribution to the dynamic analysis of musical instruments. A multidisciplinary approach oriented to the study of mechanical, structural, vibratory and acoustical phenomena related to stringed instruments is discussed. The case study focused in this paper ...

Solenoid valves control fluid flow by using the passage of an electric current to produce a magnetic field that controls the displacement of a pre-tensioned plunger. As the electric current increases, the induced force causes the plunger to move upward against the force exerted by a ... En savoir plus

This article reports the design of a high-power ultrasound system, capable of emitting acoustic radiation at 20kHz with SPL peaks up to 160dB at a distance of up to 1m. The main problem of high power airborne ultrasonic systems lies in the acoustic impedance mismatch between the radiator ... En savoir plus

High temperature variations inside a tent can be a problem for campers’ thermal comfort. To increase user comfort, Decathlon has tents called "Fresh & Black (F&B)". The main improvement of this equipment lies in the textile technology, regulating the temperature inside and ... En savoir plus

The present work explores the integration of guided mode resonance (GMR) structures and topological photonics, characterized by the presence of Jackiw-Rebbi (J-R) solution. The developed surface enhanced GMR structure may serve as a platform for refractive index sensing across various ... En savoir plus
