Cowpea seed is a pulse which is very rich in vital micronutrients but also in anti-nutritional factors such as α-galactosides (verbascose, stachyose and raffinose) that can cause digestive disorders after consumption. The objective of this work was to identify the transport and ... Read More
Additive manufacturing technologies do not share the same rendering depending on the type of material discontinuities induced by material processing. This study aims at revealing the role of microstructural defects as driving factors for the mechanical performance of polymeric parts ... Read More
Whereas some bearings designed in the 19th century are still working properly nowadays, some others which were recently designed encountered premature failures. Tribological applications, such as journal bearings or rolling element bearings, are generally ruled by complicated ... Read More
Finite element analysis (FEA) can be used to study the electrical properties of conductive ITO thin films. Previous studies have been done on insulating thin films deposited on conductive substrates [1,2]. It was found that changes of electrode size and film thicknesses can cause huge ... Read More
This study allows to establish the possibility to carry out the pyrolysis of mixtures of ethane-propane in an existing steam-cracking reactor (SCR) originally designed for ethane pyrolysis. The final goal of this study was to minimize new investments, e.g. a purchase of new equipment, ... Read More
Alternating 200 kHz electric fields ~2 V/cm (Tumor Treating Fields, ‘TTFields’) kill cancer cells by disrupting the delicate orchestration of chromosome spindle formation, but the exact mechanism of action is unknown. The likely suspects are polarized intracellular molecules such as ... Read More
In this work, the production intent design of a motor with controller inside a car seat for head restraint function is analyzed and optimized using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and the Application Builder. Parameter based multiscale FEA models were developed by using external CAD ... Read More
Column Loudspeakers employ multiple drivers to get close to a radiating line source. A line source gives several acoustic advantages versus a point source, especially in highly reverberant environments. This property particularly has made column loudspeakers the preferred solution in ... Read More
Microneedles have been recognized as a potent and novel method of transdermal drug delivery over the last decade. Despite recent advances in nano- and microfabrication techniques, less is known about the structural properties and design optimization of microneedles in a systematic ... Read More
The objective of the research is to design a broadband energy harvester device through the two-piece non-linear trapezoidal geometry approach. The performance of two piezoelectric PZT-PZN polycrystalline ceramic composition samples are simulated in the COMSOL Multiphysics® software, and ... Read More
