Analyzing the Dissociation Process in a Tubular Reactor
To accurately analyze tubular reactor designs, chemical engineers can model the dissociation process. But is it better to use a isothermal or nonisothermal simulation to do so?
Happy Birthday, Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin was an English scientist whose research greatly advanced the field of X-ray crystallography. Learn more about the life and work of this Nobel Prize-winning scientist.
Investigating Turing’s Theory of Morphogenesis
Ever wonder how a tiger gets its stripes? Alan Turing’s theory of morphogenesis explains how patterns, such as stripes, develop naturally from initially homogeneous states.
Investigating Damage to Cultural Heritage Sites with Simulation
To find out why paintings in Saint Catherine’s Chapel in the Netherlands are deteriorating, researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology combined physical measurements and simulation.
Simulation Paves the Way for More Efficient OLED Devices
