The authors are currently investigating the use of bulk high temperature superconductors as trapped field magnets (TFMs) in order to increase the electrical and magnetic loading of an axial gap, trapped flux-type superconducting electric machine. In electric machines, the use of ... Read More
Our group developed an experimental millimetric capsule intended to release chemicals or drugs. The delivery mechanism of such device relies on the thermal expansion of carbon-elastomer composites which deform upon irradiation of light supplied by a Laser diode through an optical fiber. ...

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging has matured into a clinical modality for tissue imaging and functional cancer cell research. It uses a pulsed laser to irradiate a region and generate a thermally-induced acoustic pressure wave that can be collected by an ultrasound transducer. The optical ... Read More
Microheaters used for gas sensing applications have been studied analytically and experimentally. Previously reported microheaters at COMSOL® conferences have shed light on microheaters’ thermal properties, optimized geometries and power consumption—all based on steady-state analysis. In ...

There is an increasing demand for aerosol devices from E-cigarettes to drug delivery devices with precise dosage. [1][2] The aim of this article is to investigate a Poly-Si micro heater in a vapor generator device. In order to calculate the amount of vapor production, temperature ... Read More
Laser surface texturing has emerged as a promising texturing technique due to properties such as excellent repeatability, non-contact process, the ability to achieve small-size features and high-quality finishing. The work described here is part of the H2020 research program called SHARK ... Read More
Induction furnaces are employed for vacuum distillation process to recover heavy metals after electro-refining operation. Induction furnace of suitable heating rate and cooled by passive means are required to be developed for this purpose. It is planned to set up a mock up induction ... 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
With the evolving trend of electrification in transportation, electric machines with higher power density and higher efficiency are demanded which results in the thermal limit of the stator winding becoming more of a key constraint. The achievable current density in stator windings is ... Read More
Microwave drying of fruits and vegetables in a domestic oven has been found to result in large textural changes in the product such as puffing, crack formation and even burning due to the inhomogeneous heating of the microwaves. Microwave drying of potatoes is a complex interplay of ... Read More
