The design of highly-sensitive thermoelectric microfluidic sensors for the characterization of biochemical processes is an important area of engineering research. This study reports three-dimensional numerical analysis of the critical design parameters of a continuous-flow biosensor with ... Read More
Ion mobility spectrometry provides fast detection of very low concentrations of chemical substances. Simple instrumentation combined with high sensitivity and high selectivity are the advantages of this technique. One well established field of application is the detection of hazardous ... Read More
PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor is the most widely used motion sensor for occupancy detection in building automation applications. Normally, only the binary information indicating presence or absence is used. However, an advanced analysis of the PIR sensor analog signal can results in more ... Read More
With the use of COMSOL Multiphysics®, a full characterization of star shaped geometry structures of silver-zinc oxide (Ag-ZnO-Au) study is presented. Analysis with different thicknesses of gold cover, as well as with different lengths and additional arrangements of the structure have ... Read More
Induction motors have wide applications in industries, so they are prone to faults, which later result in vibrations and hence noise. So it is important to analyze the faults in induction motors, their causes, and their effect on the system. Basically, there are so many faults in ... Read More
The challenge of our current research is to design large aperture MEMS scanning mirrors for Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) applications such as in unmanned driving or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. The current MEMS scanning mirrors have a smaller aperture which limits application, it can ... Read More
We present a study of an optofluidic biosensor. The sensor operates in a transmission mode wherein detection is based on a shift in the transmission spectrum caused by the contrast in refractive index between the carrier fluid and the target biomaterial. We study the behavior of the ... Read More
Transient eddy current (TEC) technique is being developed for detection of flaws located at depth within multilayer aluminum structures. The present work involves finite element modeling using COMSOL Multiphysics software to simulate different types of probes by changing some of these ... Read More
For many decades Helium-3 (3He) and Argon gas filled detectors have been used for neutron and gamma detection. Detection requires the generation of electrons which can then be measured by electronic means. These electrons are generated either directly through gamma ionization of a gas ... Read More
Tunnels and their detection have been a problem in warfare since the ancient world. Recent events have highlighted the ongoing problems of tunnels and the difficulties in locating them, not only in military situations, but also in law enforcement and homeland security applications as ... Read More
