Predicting vibroacoustic performance in buildings in terms of sound insulation is a challenging task. As of today, no widespread standardised accurate method for predicting either impact or airborne sound insulation has been established. Rather, several software relying in the analytical ...

Air pollution caused by particulate matter (PM) is one of the most severe issues in urban environments. Urban green infrastructure (UGI), in particular green walls, have been proven to be capable of capturing PM via deposition on leaves. This phenomenon was assessed by numerical ... En savoir plus
Damages caused by lightning overvoltages remains to be an important issue for electrical industry, putting limitations for efficiency of transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Modern solutions for lightning protection such as multichamber arresters (MCA) for overhead ... En savoir plus
The effect of static magnetic fields (SMF) on living matter such cell cultures and living organisms has been a promising research field. Efforts have been given in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms and interaction between the field and the biological system with its ... En savoir plus
Several experimental evidences show that macroscopic description of heat transfer phenomena in semiconductors through Fourier law is no longer accurate when the system length and time scales are comparable with the mean free path and relaxation time of the energy carriers (phonons). In ... En savoir plus
Thawing processes of raw tuna are widely used as a unit operation dedicated to the canning industry. At the industrial scale, the water immersion process remains the main relevant process for thawing large tuna fishes. The fish is then butchered and the flesh obtained is precooked before ...

Patterned two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently become promising candidates for separation processes in both gaseous and aqueous phases, due to mechanical strength and atomic thickness. Conventional separation technique using 2D materials are limited by the surface charge of 2D ... En savoir plus
Introduction: Acoustic levitators are used to levitate small samples (ca. 0.01 - 6 mm) at a stable position in a gas or liquid environment. Acoustic levitators were first developed und used for experiments in space (1970s, by NASA / ESA), the application later became terrestrial (1990s). ... En savoir plus
Micromachined ultrasound transducers can work as a sensor or actuator for measuring fluid speed and direction, mixing and exciting particles (sonication), taking images (ultrasonography), non-destructive testing and many other purposes in various fields. In this work, a COMSOL ... En savoir plus
Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... En savoir plus
