In order to gather more detailed information on the rising sea level, glacier melting and tectonic plate movements to improve our understanding of global and climate change, the Next Generation Gravity Mission (NGGM) is being prepared by the European Space Agency (ESA) in cooperation ... Read More

Quenching, a critical process in the heat treatment of railway wheels, significantly affects the mechanical properties and performance of the final product. The development of an optimized quenching process recipe is essential to ensure the durability and safety of railway wheels. This ... Read More

Hydrogen has the potential to be an important source of clean energy, but the development of efficient and cost-effective methods for storing hydrogen is a key challenge that needs to be addressed in order to make widespread use of hydrogen as an energy source possible. There are ... Read More

Microwave hyperthermia (HT) offers a promising approach to cancer treatment by selectively heating tumors to temperatures between 42-44°C, enhancing the efficacy of radiotherapy and chemotherapy [1]. To effectively treat deep-seated and sub-superficial tumors, state-of-the-art clinical ... Read More

Foam is a multiscale material composed of many millimetric cells. Altogether, the cells can easily be shaped into almost any object of the metric scale, provided that a mould is available to let the initial mixture expand appropriately. While some mechanical properties such as foam ... Read More

This study focuses on optimizing the lengths of various structural components around a cylinder to minimize drag. Using COMSOL Multiphysics, numerical simulations involving Laminar Flow were performed. Key components optimized include an arrowhead positioned upstream and two flaps ... Read More

TRB company is developing a wide range of high-performance refractory products adapted to the needs of big industries such as blast furnace, steel works, foundry, cement, heat treatment furnace, etc... These products are formulated with silico-aluminous materials and other special ... Read More

Stability of food webs under environmental changes like e.g. climate change depends on the effect of a time-dependent parameter like temperature on population level and community level. As predator-prey relationships depend on individual size, all populations involved must be size ... Read More

A critical element in understanding the pre-breakdown and breakdown mechanisms in gas/solid insulation systems is the triple point. This point is where two dielectric materials and a conductor intersect. Understanding these mechanisms at the triple point is crucial for designing systems ... Read More
