Better Brewing: Modeling Beer Fermentation
What’s brewing? Explore how modeling and simulation can be used to study the beer fermentation process, identifying ways to optimize its efficiency and serve up a better-tasting glass of suds.
Simulating Thermal Propagation in a Battery Pack
When batteries overheat, there’s more at stake than just losing the pack. By modeling thermal runaway, you can prevent problems before they arise.
Modeling Shunt Currents in an Alkaline Electrolyzer Stack
In the quest for affordable green hydrogen, alkaline electrolyzers must be efficient and long-lasting. Simulation offers insight during the design stage.
Happy Birthday, Elijah McCoy
Elijah McCoy is known for inventing a steam engine lubrication system. But did you know that he also filed 57 other U.S. patents, including a lawn sprinkler designed to look like a turtle?
Examining an Air Filter with a RANS Turbulence Model
Modeling and simulation can be used to analyze and better understand turbulent flow in a variety of systems. See one example here.
From TV Signals to Toasting: Tuning a Yagi–Uda Antenna to Heat Muffins
See how modeling and simulation can be used to test an unconventional heating method. Here, we explore how a Yagi–Uda antenna performs as a hypothetical oven replacement to heat muffins.
Happy Birthday, John von Neumann
One of the most influential mathematicians of the 20th century, John von Neumann also left major marks on quantum mechanics and computer science. Learn more about this polymath’s legacy.
