The ubiquitous nature of biofilms has led to a growing need to be able to detect, control, and maintain or remove them. Therefore a robust testing platform that allows for multiple analytical techniques is required to better understand their multitude of properties. The development of ... En savoir plus

Dr. R. N Singh is currently a INSA Senior Scientist. Prior to this appointment, he was a CSIR Emeritus Scientist at the National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI), Hyderabad. He has been the Scientist-in-Charge of CSIR Centre of Mathematical Modeling and Computer Simulation, ... En savoir plus

We present a novel multi-layered electrode fabrication technique for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). This method consists of alternate layers of Pt deposition (0.05 mg/cm²) by sputtering on the painted multi-walled carbon-Nafion layer (CNL) with larger concentration of ... En savoir plus

“页岩气革命”使美国成功摆脱了对他国能源的严重依赖，目前我国页岩气的勘探开发也已取得了突破性成果，但是随着页岩气的开发，仍存在三大问题困扰着科学工作者和现场工程师：（1）页岩气开发过程中的渗透率演化规律尚未摸清；（2）在产气过程中，页岩气在产量上往往呈现出不确定性；（3）缺乏针对页岩气进行历史拟合和产量预测的数学工具。针对以上三个主要问题，我们定义非常规储层固有渗透率的演化是裂隙和基质之间物质传输和应力传递的结果，并建立了离散体模型研究孔隙变形与流体流动之间的耦合作用；以此为基础，我们建立双基质双重孔隙介质模型（连续介质模型）研究页岩基质变形与流体流动之间的耦合关系 ...

The finite element method applied to the k-epsilon turbulence model is used to investigate the two-stream turbulent mixing layer. Whereas the model is known as one of the most popular of the turbulence models to date, the model has yet to be applied to the classical mixing layer problem ... En savoir plus

Air permeability is one of the most important parameters in the study of thermo-physiological comfort of fabrics. The main goal of this work is to develop a virtual process that allows the prediction of air permeability of any fabric without realizing a sample. The Free and Porous Media ... En savoir plus

For the numerical solving of the equations, Comsol has been applied. Simulations have been modeled in 2D Cartesian, in cylindrical coordinate system and in a “mantle-like” cylindrical-shell. Mantle dynamics is controlled by the Rayleigh number (Ra), which is the ratio of the buoyancy ... En savoir plus

Using COMSOL Multiphysics, studies were performed showing that thermomagnetic siphoning (TMS) is a sufficient manner of regulating the temperature of a bundle of current-carrying wires wrapped with a magnetorheological fluid (MRF) jacket. Because of Curie’s Law, the cooler MRF on the ... En savoir plus

In one of the screw compressor system, designed silencer was not optimal. A great challenge was the large variation in operating conditions, especially the variation of the molecular weight of the gas. There was need to optimize the silencer. This paper describes the acoustic modelling ... En savoir plus

Articular cartilage is composed by a charged solid matrix (proteoglycan and collagen fibres) and an interstitial fluid phase. The permeability of articular cartilage is a function of compression load applied on the tissue, the solid matrix underwent a compaction that decreased its value ... En savoir plus
