Modeling of fractured porous media systems is currently of high interest in various academic and applied fields, mainly in the geological and material sciences. The very different scales of the region of an application case on the larger end and the fracture on the lower end pose a ... Read More
One of the most destructive modes of corrosion of metals is localized corrosion. This can take many forms depending on the chemical and electrochemical environment of the metal. One important form is crevice corrosion, which occurs where two or more surfaces in close proximity lead to ... Read More
Soft lossy viscoelastic polymers can dissipate significant amounts of energy in the form of heat when subjected to dynamic mechanical stimuli. As a result, structures comprised of such lossy materials may heat up considerably when excited by loads at a frequency that approaches one of ... Read More
State of the art measurements of permanent electric dipoles (EDM) measure accumulated phase in spin-polarized gases over hundreds of seconds and are exquisitely sensitive to magnetic field inhomogeneities. The search for the neutron's EDM at Los Alamos National Laboratory (nEDM@LANL) ... Read More
Thermal ablation driven by an acoustic heat source has tremendous potential for the treatment of diseased tissue. In many applications, such as treating tumors in the liver, bulk removal of tissue is required, and thermal ablation can reliably cause necrosis for a relatively large tissue ... Read More
Recent events underscore the importance of rapid diagnostic tests for detecting viruses such as the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus or for screening cancer biomarkers. Many fluidic-based diagnostics applications require careful control of chemical and biological species concentrations. In this ... Read More
Working fluids (engine oil, transmission fluid, hydraulic fluid, coolants, etc.) become contaminated in use. To ensure that the equipment is not damaged by the contaminated fluid, the fluid is typically removed and replaced periodically. For large groups of machines, the used fluid is ... Read More
During the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process, proteins stored in aqueous solutions are frozen and thawed. Frozen aqueous solutions provide an excellent medium for storing and transporting the protein without degradation. In this work, the freezing and thawing of an aqueous solution ... Read More
Hemolysis caused by flow-induced mechanical damage to red blood cells is a concern in devices that involve transporting blood. Mathematical models have been proposed to estimate red blood cell damage in blood flow. We used hemolysis mathematical models to evaluate the effect of ... Read More
Advancements in simulation technology are supported by rapidly evolving enablers such as Cloud infrastructure, high-performance computing platforms (on & off-premises), on-demand Machine Learning systems, and secure multi-user environments. These advancements provide an opportunity ... Read More
