COMSOL Multiphysics® software was used in this study to simulate mixing by diffusion and by secondary flow. Particle tracing model was applied to simulate the mixing of cells in the microchannel. Results agreed well with the measurement, an optimal herring-bone structure was proposed for ... En savoir plus

Metamaterials are periodic or quasi-periodic, sub-wavelength metal structures. The material properties are derived from its structure rather than inheriting them directly from its material composition. En savoir plus

Fluid flow has the potential to provide significant mechanical energy input for electromagnetic energy harvesters. The effect of a bluff body, such as cylinder played a significant role in the creation of a Karman vortex profile in the fluid flow. We study the effect of the number and ... En savoir plus

Descemet membrane detachment (DMD) happen when the aqueous humour (AH) in the aqueous chamber flow into the descrement membrance (DM) space through a break and separate the membrane from the stroma. This often happen after the cataract surgery. The fluid is driven by the buoyancy force ... En savoir plus

High levels of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in Operating Theatres (OT) is an important issue in order to contribute in prevention of Surgical Site Infections (SSI). Despite of specific plant layouts are applied for OT ventilation (e.g. unidirectional flow), the effective use conditions can ... En savoir plus

Droplet flow at microscopic scale is often used to enhance many pharmaceuticals and industrial processes (i.e. liquid–liquid micro-extraction, nanoparticle synthesis, slow reactions in microfluidic devices, etc.). In all these processes, the mass transfer rate, at the interface between ... En savoir plus

COMSOL Multiphysics was used to solve a phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) for nanoscale heat transport problems. One dimensional steady-state and transient BTE problems were successfully solved based on finite element and discrete ordinate methods for spatial and angular ... En savoir plus

A new filter-less method of detecting the spectrum based on wavelength absorption in silicon is proposed. Wavelength dependent absorption coefficient produces a unique excess carrier distribution. Thus the wavelength spectral information can be obtained by measuring the photon generated ... En savoir plus

The attempt has taken to miniaturized size of non contact temperature sensor by using ultrasonic trans-receiver. The piezoelectric material is used in both transmitter and receiver ends for this ultrasonic Micro-Electronics Mechanical Systems (MEMS) based temperature sensing device. ... En savoir plus

Conventional cell culture (CC) techniques are advancing significantly with a trend towards a mass production. While plating density (number of cells per volume of culture medium) plays a critical role for some cell types, the initial distribution of these cells is affected by the actual ... En savoir plus
